8 of 25What trash. I need this thing to work, in every orientation. I have used it for years, but while charging my iPad just now, which I was using upside down, I entered one of the many figures I was calculating and bam, censored! Well, guess what idiots, your basic idea is flawed anyway. The screen wasn’t upside down. And even it was, you could always lay it on a table and walk around to the other side. Fools. Delete. Update: Thanks for admitting this is a joke app.
Best iPad calculator that I’ve found. Works great, and not covered in ads!
Change the calculator to be blue just like original, but don’t change the icon to blue
Love this app! Thank you! Just wish there were commas to separate the hundreds, thousands, millions, etc.

Used for years. Even tipped a few times. Imagine my surprise when I updated the phone today and the one thing I bought it for no longer existed. Edit: Apparently that’s and iOS 18 issue as they took away legacy widgets. Developer responded and told me they haven’t updated to the new style widgets because of typing lag using them. Having downloaded another highly rated calculator that uses the new style widgets, I can see what they are talking about. It’s not a great experience.
It was great when I had widget. Now with new iOS update the widget is gone. It was faster than using the iOS calculator in the short cut. Just slide over and you had a calculator. Now the best part of the app is gone. Lame
I’ve used this app for years, largely for the widget. I understand that the iOS 18 widgets are extremely slow, however I would appreciate even a slow PCalc Lite widget over any other calculator app. Love, a loyal user
