Imagine... You are enjoying a lunch with friends and you suggest to perform a strange mathematical "experience". You ask for several volunteers to think of a special number, a birthday, the age of their best friend... You then ask them to multiply these numbers together, without you being able to see anything, then multiply the result by a special number that you previously wrote on a piece of paper, before the demonstration begins. Your friends give you orally the final result of these operations. You close your eyes and after a few seconds you reveal in the right order, the secret numbers of your friends! dnCalc will allow you to easily produce this little miracle that you can adapt according to your wishes and to he context. Your friends or colleagues will be asking what magical mathematical operation you mentally do to "extract" their numbers. Guaranteed to impress! • Very easy to do. A PDF document explains in details the procedure (which you can adapt). • Nothing to memorize. • Up to 5 people can be involved in the demonstration. • The spectators manipulate the calculator, you do not touch anything. • You can do this demonstration with your eyes closed. • No need for internet connection. • The trick is absolutely undetectable, nothing to find. • The effect is reproducible several times in a row. Many other cool features : • Force any number you need. • Compute and peek the age of your volunteer. • Compute and peek his zodiac signs (classic or Chinese). • Compute and peek his birth day of week. • Build your own forcing/peeking formulas! *** IMPORTANT *** If you have questions, do not ask them in the app's reviews, in order to preserve the secret.

A professional magician's utility for entertainment purposes only. MagiCalc looks and behaves exactly like the iPhone's calculator, with one secret: any expression consisting only of additions always evaluates to 1,024 when = is pressed. Your spectator can add any numbers they like, birthdays, phone digits, "random" amounts — and the total is always 1,024. Any expression containing subtraction, multiplication, or division computes honestly, so the calculator survives casual inspection and real math. That makes 1,024 a "force": you predict it in a sealed envelope, reveal it as a page number, a locker combination, a Wi-Fi password — the routine is yours. The force number is configurable. THE SUPERPOWER: NO INSTALL, ANY IPHONE You don't need your phone — or theirs to have anything installed. Tap one of your NFC tags to any iPhone (XS or later) and an App Clip of this calculator opens in seconds. No App Store visit, no account, nothing left behind. The full app includes a built-in NFC tag writer, so you can prepare tags yourself: stick one under a table, inside a book, behind a business card. WHAT IT IS • Pixel-faithful iOS-style expression calculator • Addition-only expressions force to 1,024 — everything else is honest • Instant App Clip launch from NFC tags on borrowed phones • Built-in NFC tag writer • Works fully offline, collects zero data WHAT IT ISN'T A calculator for real arithmetic involving only addition. That's the trick. If you want honest sums, use the built-in Calculator app. For performers, mentalists, and anyone who wants to hand a spectator a calculator and already know the answer.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: UnToxic at every 5 days against dnCalc's fortnightly. dnCalc's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
