While building Haseba, we focused most of our energy on the user interface. We think that the key to any great app is a beautiful, and simple design that works seamlessly with the app's features. • Scientific Calculator • Voice Calculator • History (Swipe down in the display area) • Copy and Paste • Dynamic Light / Dark Themes (and icons) • Larger Buttons Option • Available on Apple Watch Memory Slots • Save a value inside one of 11 memory slots to use them in calculations later • A value may be the result of a previous calculation, or pasted from the clipboard into a memory slot • The process to store a value in a memory slot is very easy and fast, just drag down a memory slot • Copy memory slot value to clipboard • After having a set of occupied memory slots, you can apply one of six different operations on them in one tap: sum, average, product, median, max, min, of the occupied memory slots. ___________________________________________ Terms & Privacy: https://bit.ly/haseba-terms-privacy Need help or have questions?

Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Haseba Calculator at 3.8K against PCalc Lite's 214. PCalc Lite's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. PCalc Lite sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Haseba Calculator sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Haseba Calculator holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Haseba Calculator has 3.8K ratings behind it against 214, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of PCalc Lite's written reviews are positive against 78% of Haseba Calculator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
PCalc Lite ships an update every 3 months, Haseba Calculator every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
