BA II Plus™ Financial Calc for Negative User Reviews
✓ Ok but had issuesI bought this, because we use the TI-30 in my Statistics class and it works great, so I figured that the app, although more expensive, would be more convenient and would work exactly the same way to input variables. unfortunately it does not and it has basically been unused since. Please fix it to more adequately mirror the input and usage of your excellent TI-30 calculator..Version: 1.4
✓ Iphone 5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Cmon TI Get!!! with the program... 16 bucks a pop... Cant afford upscaling a little application? Thats weak as hell....Version: 1.1
✓ Really not worth itIts a short of the actual calculator by a lot. Not worth the price, this should be a free download. Horrible business move Texas Instruments..Version: 1.5
✓ Difficult to presentI find it can only display vertically but not horizontally on screen. It is useless in term of education purpose since the students can’t read sideways on screen..Version: 1.4
✓ Great but...Please provide an option to upgrades to professional. This would change my rating as it should be something that you offer those who want to utilize their iPhone when a calc isn't available..Version: 1.4
✓ Wrong results.Have used ti ba calculators since they existed. This app does not give correct results. Have been waiting for an update for approximately two years now to fix, but no update forthcoming. Don’t waste your time with the current app..Version: 1.4
✓ Back to the original layoutPrefer the old format, have to question design change.Version: 1.5
✓ Today's update is awefulMy first ever app review. The update today is a travesty. I did not request the new features and paid full price for the app knowing what I was getting. Now this update is unusable. Please refund me so I can look elsewhere..Version: 1.5
✓ Need ManualWhy does this app not come with a user manual. It's a good calculator, but the app should link somehow to an instruction manual. Especially at this price of $14..Version: 1.0
✓ Doesnt respect operation rulesIt doesnt respect operation rules, when you press one of the basic functions, it will always sum first, which isnt the case with a regular BA II Plus. Not worth the money unless they fix this major bug..Version: 1.2
✓ CF calcs don't workThe cash flow entry doesn't work which makes me wonder how many other bugs there are......Version: 1.2
✓ Interface is terribleIt’s still a good calculator but the interface is horrible. Put it back to the way it was..Version: 1.5
✓ After 23 devoted years, the new format ended my love for the BA II plusI gave myself a good chance to adapt to the new format but it has lost the appealing defined buttons. I wish we could have the option to choose among formats but we are forced to use this new look which just looks so small and generic. It’s not what I bought and I’d never buy this mundane impractical style..Version: 1.5
✓ Wrong calculationsWrong calculations. It doesn’t match the answers of my professor!!! Something is wrong.Version: 1.7
✓ It seems to work then stopI have been having a lot of trouble with the calculator. I have uninstalled the app and then reinstall it. It seems to work then with time value of money or mortgage calculation..Version: 1.4
✓ I want my OLD calculator backDudes! What in the world are you thinking? The whole point of this app is to emulate the old calculator that we all loved. By making it look like any other calc, I might as well use the built in Apple calc. So disappointing. If I could have written the review with NO stars I would have done it. Way to screw-up a great app. “Thanks a pant-load!”.Version: 1.5
✓ What is it with Texas BAs and failing at key rollover???The (real, physical) Texas BA is fairly well designed on the whole but has a huge design flaw. Basically they utterly failed to implement 2-key rollover in the way that any other calculator does. Try it with a real one: hold down a key (say '3'), keep it down and release another (say '4'), now release 3, and then release 4. The BA completely ignores the 4 key! This situation happens all the time when entering numbers quickly with 2 fingers. People are often confused as to why the calculator missed digits. So onto this iPhone software version- the engineers fixed the case I described above, but incredibly they left the following bug! Try pressing and holding '3', then press and release '4', then release '3'. Amazingly the software BA has registered '43'! This calculator is only useful to me for helping out students who like to use it for TVM calculations, I would never use it myself unless I had to..Version: 1.1
✓ Leaves a lot to desire in UI- Please consider adding visual and haptic indicators/feedback for key press. It's hard to know if I have pressed a function key or not, unless I either go ahead with incorrect input and hence answer, or start again. - There should be colour themes for all your BA II pro, grey one as well as the current black-red, so it's a seamless experience when I move between the app and physical calculator - Finally, if you really want to make it better, consider adding a history feature to be able to go through the last few, say 50-100, calculations.Version: 1.7
✓ A rip-offThe main read-out is crisp, but all the buttons are slightly blurred. It certainly doesn't look like the screenshots. The click sound is surrounded by static. All in all, this is a poor adaptation of a cumbersome calculator. PV=$0.20...certainly not the eighteen bucks I paid for it!!.Version: 0
✓ Why?Why did you change a perfectly fine app that actually resembled the calculator into some low qualify sci fi phablet looking device? This app was not broken, and somehow you made it worse. The best perk of the app was that it looked like the physical calculator..Version: 1.5
✓ Landscape mode neededThis is my go to for any finance calculation and I wish I could use it anytime for basic calculations. As I use my iPad so very much (Pro 12.9”) I have to use something else without the ability for it to be used in landscape mode. Please Please Please, add landscape AND the ability to open this side by side/hide. I will change this review to 5 stars if that happens, but until then, for the price, this should be embarrassing that these two capabilities have never been addressed..Version: 1.4
✓ Upgrade to professional neededAs previously stated this app is really aimed more at the professional but even as a student you are taught and expected to calculate these missing functions such as NFV. I do not see the point in even offering the basic version - the professional version should be the only app available. An upgrade is in desperate need. Great financial calculator but fails due entirely to the missing functions. Deserves more stars - short sighted of the developer..Version: 1.4
✓ Go back to original look!Why did you update the look? It no longer has the classic calculator appearance..Version: 1.5
✓ Ba II plusWhen you are in web by hotspot or in phone by blu tooth. I lost some fonction that i can not use the app. I ave to log off my hotspot and restart software for use it..Version: 1.1
✓ DéceptionLe contenu de cette app est parfait, si ce n'était pas de ma ligne de gauche complète qui est absente 2 fois sur 3. Ce n'est vraiment pas pratique et m'a mis en mauvaise situation. Cette app coûte 14$ donc il serait souhaitable de pouvoir s'y fier pour le travail..Version: 1.1
✓ Needs an upgradeI have used BA II for years and like the features over other options. But this app needs to be updated to include features like rotation and split screen. Very awkward to use on an iPad as it exists today..Version: 1.4
✓ Updated appEverything looked and worked fine until... the update. Please go back to prior version. This is my first review EVER of an app, the update is simply that bad to work with..Version: 1.5
✓ Won't download on iPhone 6SI have been using this app for along time and it works great but it now won't download onto my iPhone 6S. Please fix, it's an awesome calculator app..Version: 1.3
✓ Need retina display & manualEven a $3.99 app has a manual....Version: 1.0
✓ Version UpdateLoved this calculator until they updated the look. Calculator keyboard is smaller now and is horrible. I just want the original calculator back. Do not recommend..Version: 1.5
✓ Do not like the new interfaceI wish I would not have updated. The old interface was easier to read since it matched to my physical calculator..Version: 1.5
✓ Functional. Ugly. Boring. Silent. Poor keyboard experience.Perfect emulation of the BA II Plus financial calculator, but a terrible app. The app processes and operates exactly like the calculator. However, this app could use the following improvements: -"click" sound when touching the screen could be improved. It needs faster sounds that don't overlap eachother when the user quickly taps the screen. -optional "above the finger preview" of each button that is touched. This would help the user see precisely where they are tapping the screen. Like the stock iPod touch keyboard. -improved visual appeal (take advantage of the Retina display). -it needs an in-app "info" or "settings" toolbar that allows the user to at least give direct feedback, or change some optional audio/visual settings. -swipe functions would make for faster calculations, ie. To clear the display, swipe the screen from left to right. Far from a 5 star app. PLEASE UPDATE THIS APP!! I want to give it 5 stars..Version: 1.0
✓ Landscape and split screen peopleCome on...really....no landscape mode and split screen capability on ipad? That is just lame..Version: 1.4
✓ Functional but needs to be updatedThis application does feature match the calculator, and is certainly helpful if you are doing CFA to always have this with you. However, as another review suggests, this application needs to be updated. First it does need to be updated to support the multitasking that has been in iOS since version 3 (now nearing 2 years old). Also it really should get a retina screen update for iPhone 4. Of course a universal binary to allow for a more native experience on the iPad wouldn't hurt either. I emailed TI today and they don't seem to have a timeline to upgrade this application which is a real shame, especially given the extremely high price..Version: 1.0
✓ Got a refundPut off by the 2.5 stars, I bought this app that emulates a calculator whose base functions haven’t improved for the past 30 years. After overcoming the gall of TI’s total lack of innovation while still demanding $15 (and don’t get me started on what they charge for the physical calculators), I expected it would still at least work. But the CF function doesn’t even remember what I just put in and can’t go past CO1. Garbage company, garbage app. I’d almost rather calculate by hand..Version: 1.7
✓ Horrendous UpdateI agree with others that paid for the app that replicates the actual TI BAII Plus. I paid for an app knowing what I was getting, and I now feel I have been cheated from my money. This new user interface is terrible. Please, bring back the old app, or give the app user the ability to use the old version. I have to question who at Texas Instruments thought this new app looked good..Version: 1.5
✓ Don't buy until display issue is fixed!The display of the calculator is not showing correctly. Therefore it is hard to read so it is useless until developer fixes the issue..Version: 1.2
✓ Hard to use after updateIt becomes hard to use after the update.Version: 1.5
✓ The new format is terrible!Please allow users to change back to the old format. The new layout is awful. I updated my app today and am mad that I can’t change the format back. Texas Instruments wrecked a good app..Version: 1.5
✓ Need to update date rangePlease update default date range so people in fixed income can prove bonds with maturities after 2049. Currently, all dates after 2049 are displayed with years in the 1900’s ie 1950, not 2050..Version: 1.4
✓ Please allow switching back to BA II PlusI am studying for my exam, for which I will use the BA plus, not the pro version. I bought this app for the identical interface to the BA Plus. Please add an option to go back to the no pro version!!.Version: 1.6
✓ Found it difficultFound it difficult to do a simple payment. Tried to follow the instructions to a T. But I knew the answer was wrong after several tries. I found the HP 10Bii much more straight forward and accurate. That's just me..Version: 1.4
✓ Does not computeThis has not worked since I purchased it. Gives erroneous answers. Compared it to several others. Waste of money..Version: 1.7
✓ Needs updatePls update for retina display (would be 5 stars)!! Otherwise this is a great App.Version: 1.0
✓ Need to reset constantlyClearing multiple times still doesn’t reset the functions properly. Calculating known equations consistently brings up incorrect calculations. You have to go through the entire reset function every equation to ensure you get the correct answer. The reliability of this is extremely poor. For the price, you are better off getting a real calculator or downloading a different app for the assurance that you will actually get the correct calculations. Very disappointed.Version: 1.4
✓ Not a fan of the updateThe new update does not take up the whole screen and is smaller then the previous version. Very disappointing..Version: 1.5
✓ Interface has changed!What’s happened to the interface? No longer is the app an exact replica of the hardware device which I know and love so very much. Now the interface has changed, it looks different, it’s not what I bought and I’d like my old interface back please!.Version: 1.5
✓ Does the absolute bare minimumThis app opens full screen on an iPad with no way to be used split screen with other apps. For a calculator app, that is ridiculous. Also, the majority of people who are purchasing this app are professional users since clearly students wouldn’t be able to use it on exams anyway. So TI, please give us the professional functions!.Version: 1.4
✓ Does not rotate!!One of the most desired function is to be able to rotate if you have an iPad. Paid quite high when there are less than half priced ones available in the market, trusting the Texas Instrument brand name. Which should consider putting the rotate function when they know how to price it quite high but do not know what the iPad consumer needs..Version: 1.2
✓ Ruined after updateThey have updated the app so it is no longer full screen on iPhone 7 and it’s no longer a complete copy the Texas Instruments BA II calculator. I downloaded this to be familiar with the physical calculator whilst travelling ahead of exams and the updates have now ruined this for no apparent reason. Doesn’t even look nice!.Version: 1.5
✓ SizeThe update is fine (although it took ages), except now the actual calculator has shrunk. Before it covered the whole screen and it worked OK, but now the buttons are smaller and I keep hitting the wrong keys. C'mon guys, fix this already!.Version: 1.5
✓ No landscape view on iPad!!!I simply cannot believe this calculator cannot be viewed in landscape on iPad!!.Version: 1.4
✓ Does not work correctlyThe app is not able to correctly calculate annuities, which is obviously a serious problem. Do NOT buy this calculator until this error has been corrected..Version: 1.4
✓ Change it backOne of the main reasons I bought this app was because of the cool retro look. Now it looks stupid..Version: 1.5
✓ Disappointed with new UII am like so many users who loved the look of the app when it looked just like the Business Analyst and the UI was perfect - it has now been ruined with an amateurish UI that takes away its unique look among Apple calculators. Bring back the old UI PLEASE!!!!.Version: 1.5
✓ Loved it beforeThe new look makes it harder to use and has unbelievable mistakes, like the key that reads “TMV” instead of “TVM”. Please give us back the version that looks like the real calculator!.Version: 1.6
✓ Inability to use the calculatorPlease I need help with this calculator, I can’t use the bracket key and the *raise to the power of*. I don’t know how this app works and I desperately need it for my finance class..Version: 1.7
✓ Hate the updateI loved this app for years because it is like having my normal BA2 plus in my pocket at all times. Out of nowhere they change the look and add useless black bars to the sides. I started using the free Apple calculator. Don’t buy it until they change it back..Version: 1.5
✓ BuggySince iOS 8, all the buttons and numbers became so small, making this app hard and awkward to use!.Version: 1.2
✓ Ok for Phone, Bad for IPadTwo changes need for this to be a great (perfect?) app. 1. Make a professional version available (free?) 2. Make it compatible for IPad with rotating screen etc..Version: 1.4
✓ Change It BackAm updating my original review. I HATE the new format. Before it had the same look and feel as my computer. Now it doesn’t look anything like any calculator. Ugh 😠😠😠 Original Review (previous 5 stars): I just downloaded to iPhone 6S and had none of the resolution issues previously mentioned. This app works just as well as the original calculator. I believe the reviewers claiming a glitch skipped a set-and-forget step they did 20 years ago when following the book's instructions - be sure to set p/y =12. After that, everything functions just fine. Love this! One less device to carry around..Version: 1.5
✓ 2nd function key not workingI bought this app so that I can calculate mortgages for clients. The 2nd function key does not work so you can't get the amortization period right. The app is completely useless to me right now. I've emailed tech support 2 months ago and got no response..Version: 1.4
✓ Hate the update.I love the calculator, but hate the update. Now it is significantly smaller and leaves water space in the margins..Version: 1.5
✓ Functional but not prettyWorks just like a BA II plus. Needs retina display support. @ $15 I expect retina display support. Also I expect multitasking support. I don't see why the app has to relaunch everytime. For those 2 flaws I subtracted 2 stars. Let's hope for some updates..Version: 1.0
✓ Bad views size on iPhone 5sThe last update in not fit with iphone 5s screen , since it is narrower than the phone screen. Seems only fit with the newer iPhone version only. Get me back the old calculator version.Version: 1.5
