Calculator for iPad₊ for Negative User Reviews
✓ 5 minutes of ads for 3 seconds of calculationsJust not worth all the waiting and clicking. And not worth paying subscription fee for a calculator. I’ll just pull out my phone, no big deal. Also, I started writing this in the app, and as I wrote, the window mysteriously disappeared along with my review. In the event that was intentional on the part of the app to void a review that was going to be one star, I spent the time and effort to find it in the App Store and leave the same review. That amount of time, by the way, was about the same required to get through the ads to use the app. Obviously I advise passing on this one!.Version: 1.5.2
✓ The amount of ads you people force us to watch.I literally get on the app, not even five seconds later I have to watch a 5 second add. I do math on my iPad and I like to go to the calculator without looking back at the equations, but every time I do, I have to watch a add and then I forget the problem. now I know you developers would like some money, BUT WHY TORTURE US WITH ADS FOR A CALCULATOR. no one in their right mind will buy a SUBSCRIPTION FOR A CALCULATOR!!! (That was NOT the best decision, shame on y’all) This is ridiculous!! I’ve had this app for about a year now and I’ve had enough. This is the last straw. I can’t do it anymore, if I could rate something 0 starts, this would be the first app for me to do so. If y’all are looking for a calculator, DO NOT GET THIS APP..Version: 1.6.1
✓ Ad-supported is perfectly fine; ad-subsumed is notI do understand that if an app is free to the end user, the developers pay for it by selling ads instead. So I’m willing to put up with occasional ads and they used to be tolerable in this app, but lately they come up between almost every calculation. They are really junky ads that no one would ever tap on, of the type where you have to wait for an X to appear so you can get rid of them. I’m deleting this app and trying one of the many other calculator apps out there..Version: 1.5.2
✓ Requires a SUBSCRIPTION to remove adsWho on earth in their right mind would pay a subscription for a calculator app when they could just use an online calculator like google? That is absolutely ridiculous. Cannot close the ads unless you pay real money. Starting at a dollar for a single month. Remember, it’s a subscription so after the month is up, it’s either pay us more money or more ads. Unbelievable. Replying to your reply: You say that since people use it for free, they will always see ads. Maybe they’re right, you’ll always see ads because there are so many that you can’t ever properly get to use the calculator. My argument is that we get to use the calculator for free on our iPhones so why suddenly is it such a big deal to charge people or bombard them with ads. You already collect information from us anyways. I also don’t get why it would have to cost so much to use. There’s not that much programming compared to a 3D game. Other than tweaking it for updates here and there I don’t see much maintenance is required. If you still thirsty for money, perhaps if the ads were non intrusive like a banner that does not contain any moving parts or a video (terrible for battery and data) it would be less annoying and if the buying option was a flat out one time price instead of having to haggle every month. At this rate I’m more than happy to use my ti-84 instead of this ap..Version: 1.1.12
✓ Is this targeted or the sponsored ads?The app is ok. A calculator I use for schoolwork and such, however I keep receiving political ads about Donald Trump, and it’s unlikely that an ad like that would be targeted towards me (I am not very involved in politics and I don’t like trump). I’m not sure if this is because of some algorithm or if the app has put those kinds of ads there, but the ads in general are annoying. Still I understand ads are necessary to get money from the app..Version: 1.2.10
✓ This does Not Need This Many AdsI open the app. i get a full size screen informing me how to purchase a subscription. i close the screen, and get to the calculator. there is a banner on the bottom advertising two different things. before i can even hit any buttons, yet Another ad slides into view, obstructing the buttons i’m trying to press. i click x to make it go away. i click x to make the banner go away, and i get a popup informing me that i need a subscription to have the privilege of not staring ads about cough drops and banking while i’m trying to figure out how much a different app costs per month if i buy a subscription on a yearly basis. i click away from the popup. minutes later, the popup ad from earlier starts obstructing the screen again. this is the single most infuriating calculator experience i’ve had in my life, and i got a C in calculus. i’m just gonna glue a solar powered calculator to my ipad..Version: 1.2.7
✓ SCAMThis is a paid app, but as soon as you buy it there's ads inside it. What did I pay for? To see ads???.Version: 1.1.0
✓ Most basic feature missingThis is a pretty good app... but unless I’m just blind there is no back delete button... witch means if you are trying to do any long functions that require lots of steps, you’ll have to be EXTREMELY careful because if you press one number more than you wanted or press the wrong one you’ll have to start all over again... it surprises me that they missed this feature as it’s by far the most basic feature that should be on a digital calculator... left disappointed ☹️.Version: 1.0.8
✓ Not worth the time to downloadIt’s a calculator, there’s nothing really special to it, but for some reason, they charge four dollars to not shove ads down your throat for a year! Again, there is ads everywhere, on a calculator without any special gimmick, and the charge four dollars year to not show you ads. Also, there is no way to write fractions, and if you make one mistake, you have to re-write your entire equation because there is no eraser, only a clear..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Ads on a calculator! Give me a breakWHY! Why do you feel the need to put ads on a calculator app! Seriously! Do you think I come here to play games and horse around here for hours…. NO! I’m usually here to pay bills or I need to calculate something and get back to WORK… and you want me to watch some stupid AD for a game. I used to could exit out of it as I wanted … but NOW it counts down till I can exit out! Like paying bills didn’t take long enough. Give me a break and bring back the stupid regular calculator!!!!!!! NO ADS!!!!.Version: 1.2.4
✓ Ads annoyingLooking for other options.Version: 1.1.11
✓ Garbage appThis is app is utter garbage. It is a calculator app. It wants a $1 per week subscription to remove ads. If you don’t then every time you switch to the app — not just open it, switch to it back and forth from one app to another — it plays more ads. I understand that developers should be able to monetize their work, and for a quality calculator app, I would gladly pay the few dollar one time fee that peer apps are asking for. This app is extortion. I wish I could give it zero stars. Do not download this app..Version: 1.6.1
✓ I hate the ads that block the calculator functionIt’s just a calculator app (that’s highly rated). The functions work great when I’m using them. However I’ve been in situations on my iPad when I need to use the slide over to make calculations. It’s happened quite a bit where an ad appears and completely blocks the calculator function. I have no idea how to get rid of it, so I’m required to close and restart the app. It happened today when I was doing a calculation for an important client. That’s a deal breaker to me I’ve moved on to another app..Version: 1.0.10
✓ Not rating with stars but saying by opinion belowHi calculator nerd developer people Ok so as you see above I’m only giving one star just so I can make the review. I do have two problems. Uno- there are so many ads!! every time I open the app there is an ad if not multiple ads Dos- i would like if u could scan a paper. sometimes I am doing homework with long problems and it takes long enough to type in the problem that with all the problems it is like 20 extra minutes wasted Just want u to know.Version: 1.2.8
✓ Pay actual money? For a calculator?I need a calculator for my IPad because my phone is dead most of the time. I go to the AppStore, see this app thinking “Oh look, a good reliable calculator app! Lemme download it!” And so I did, only to find out you have to PAY, to do a math problem. Seriously? And that’s not my only issue here. The prices are so high. Monthly fee? Really? Another issue I have is the ads. They are so obnoxious and annoying. And there’s always a huge ad either on the top or the bottom of my screen. Then after a while, there’s a random pop-up ad. Usually when I’m in the middle of doing a math problem. It may not be as bad as other people’s experiences, but it’s bad enough to write a review about. However, I’m still going to use this app because I need it. I’ll use it for the time being, until Apple starts having free downloadable calculators like they do the IPone..Version: 1.2.1
✓ Don’t really need itDon’t need it at all it costed 45$ for me so expensive if anyone is reading this don’t get this it’s horrible it costs to much there is so many like so so so so so so so so sos so so so So SO manny ADS!!!!!!! I can’t believe it every time I type one number AD every time I type one symbol AD every time I type equals AD so many ADS!!!!!!!! This is so bad I deleted it a month ago but depending on when someone reads this probably more so I just warning people it’s cost to much and there is so many ads so I’m saying DO NOT BUY THIS ITS HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.Version: 1.0.3
✓ Monthly fee? For a calculator?I couldn’t figure out how to rate this app. I need a calculator for my iPad. It boggles my mind that Apple doesn’t have one automatically installed or available for the ipad like the iPhone. I found this one and thought I had solved my problem but the ads on this are more than obnoxious. They aren’t banners on the bottom or top- They are FULL PAGE pop ups you have to exit out of to move on. I like to use the calculator in the two-screen mode and this makes it impossible to exit out of the ad because the X is hidden. I have to open it in full screen mode then exit the add then go back to floating screen. It’s obnoxious and I end up just grabbing my phone to use that calculator 99% of the time. Today I decided to just research if I could pay a small nominal lifetime fee to unlock a no ads version but they want you to pay monthly?! For a basic calculator? You’ve got to be kidding me. I found somewhere it said you can pay for the app or you can subscribe monthly but I can’t seem to find that option. It just keeps pushing the subscription. There is no way I’m paying monthly for this thing. I hate companies who try to price gouge. I will use my iPhone calculator until Apple fixes their error and adds a free calculator to the iPad..Version: 1.1.3
✓ Advertisements cover critical areas of the screen. 🤬This app is garbage! Advertisements cover critical areas of the screen so it really isn’t usable unless you pay $5.99 a week or $60 a year. For a calculator?!? That’s insane!🤬 I don’t mind paying for software, but a subscription to a calculator is ridiculous! Who in their right mind would pay $60 US a year for a calculator?!? I use calculators in my work every day. Before I had an iPhone or iPad, I had several physical calculators, each optimized for a particular purpose. Now, I have several calculators on my iPhones and iPads. Some of them have many features, are easy to use, and cost only a few dollars. I am always looking to see what’s available that might be better than the calculators I use. Of all the calculators I’ve seen, this one takes first place as the WORST value in calculators. For that matter, nothing else comes anywhere close to being as bad as this. I pity anyone stupid enough to pay an annual fee for this calculator..Version: 1.3.1
✓ Well designed calculator, critically flawed pricing/adsThe calculator itself is actually great, easy to use, and fully featured. But while I'm happy to pay to buy a quality app, a monthly subscription to a calculator is absurd, especially at the price this app wants. Calculator features are basically static, so I can't imagine there's a ton of continuing development. I also generally don't mind banner ads for ongoing support, but this has full screen intrusive pop up ads. Calculator apps should be quick and simple to use, and the video ads defeat that. As much as I think this is a good calculator, I'll find another app unless the monetization scheme is changed on this one..Version: 1.1.12
✓ MediocrePerformance wise, the calculator is sub-par. There are definitely better apps you could get that don’t require a monthly subscription just to remove the ads. Also, this may just be my blatant ignorance, but there’s no feature to use fractions in your equation. I personally think you’d benefit much more from getting a scientific calculator instead of this one. In my opinion the default calculator on google is easier to use. There’s honestly not much to say about it aside from the fact it’s an average calculator. I’d say overall it’s just completely average. There’s nothing particularly special about it, it works for simple equations, and that’s about it. I really only gave ut a three star review because four is too high and two is too low. Four is like discount five star review, and two is the same but for one star reviews. Thank you for reading this review, I hope it was helpful..Version: 1.3.1
✓ Missing number problems’ problemHi! I am a 3rd grader and this app helps me with social distance learning at this hard time with Covid-19. I was using this app for a missing number problem but I got stuck. The problem was somthing like 4x?=36. I can’t find the button for the missing space. Well, if there is one. Can you please add a button for missing number problems? Like a question mark? Thank you if so. If not, how dare you. -Hailey.Version: 1.0.6
✓ Ads kill this appI wanted a simple calculator for my ipad since apple doesn’t have it as an option (for some reason??). This one was great but having ads not only present but take over the whole screen in a pop up that you have to wait a few seconds to click out of make it unbearable. I’d rather just create a homepage shortcut to a webpage calculator 🙄.Version: 1.6.2
✓ Clumsy layoutHi.Version: 1.1.2
✓ Why do I have to pay for a calculatorI still don’t get to this day why I have to pay for a calculator it’s dumb it really is I’m sorry Apple feel like this but I’m not a carrier either I’m expecting a response from Apple so please I want to get a response right now tomorrow or next week because this doesn’t make any sense I should not have to pay for a calculator Apple that’s all I have to say everything else is good about this calculator from my standpoint so please fix it. Thank you.Version: 1.2.8
✓ Took a payment without permissionWent to open thinking hey it’s a calculator and I need to add up numbers. When I saw it wasn’t free I went to hit my home button to exit because no way a. I paying for a calculator when I have a free one on my phone or idk a piece of paper and the ability to add in my head. But the second I hit the home button it scanned my finger print and verified my Apple ID accepting payment. Now I can’t even find it on the App Store. Even writing this review only opens a little window. Not the whole store. Please fix this..Version: 1.5.0
✓ Why not?The only reason I’m giving this app more than one star is because it works, albeit not as well as the built in app on my iPhone. You require revenue from annoying ads in order to provide us with an average calculator that I could have written in a few minutes 35 years ago? Perhaps if you could provide a real incentive to pay for it, more of us would. I do in part blame Apple for this because I see no reason why there’s no calculator built in the iPad version of iOS. It’s downright ridiculous, IMO..Version: 1.6.2
✓ Ads are super intrusiveThis has many helpful functions and I thought would make up for the lack of native calculator app on my iPad but the pop up ads while I’m trying to do calculations was so annoying I uninstalled this minutes later. I understand apps needs revenue and that’s fine. But to have ads that pop up and stop the user from doing anything randomly is really poor UX..Version: 1.2.2
✓ Please don’t download this appIt cost money to remove ads and it cost money to become a membership it be better if u remove those stuff because they don’t really care about those stuff they just got this app to calculate and people hate ads ! the owner of this app is doing ads so they can get money and when u remove the ads it’s just a waste of money! It be better if u just don’t download this app cause it has lots of ads and it cost money to remove them !.Version: 1.1.2
✓ It’s a Calculator, But One Catch...This has been my go to on my iPad Pro. I don’t need anything fancy, just a basic calculator. Unfortunately, the ads have really started to get on my nerves, so I was willing to pay to remove them. $4 a year for no ads? Really? Sorry, don’t think this app is worth $4 a year just to remove ads. There are too many online resources that do what I need, not to mention other calculator apps that charge as little as .99 to remove adds..Version: 1.0.6
✓ Ok, but better pay.Good, but only if willing to pay the $3 a year for a basic calculator. I used this app free for a few years but the ads have simply become too obnoxious popping up in front of the actual calculator/answer screen. Too much! I’m deleting it. I get that the developers need to be paid for their work, but it’s a calculator! It’s free built in to basically every device save the iPad. Paying a subscription to use an otherwise standard feature is ridiculous..Version: 1.2.10
✓ DevelopersThese developers are terrible. They have never even fixed a single bug that I have reported to them in 2 years. They pretend to release updates every month, but those are lies — nothing is ever improved or fixed in the version updates. They simply release the updates to clear out the negative reviews like this one. For proof of this, notice that they have never actually listed a single improvement that they have ever made to the app. The developers who created this app are unethical liars..Version: 1.2.8
