Great Multi-function Calculator
04/06/2017

Renard M
This is more than just your standard calculator. There are 4 modes to choose from. The one I find most useful is the Tape Mode. It is great for itemized calculations. There are just a couple of small issues that prevent me from giving it a perfect 5-star rating. The first is that while having a Scientific Mode is great, having a Scientific Mode with a graphing screen would have made any other calculator app obsolete. Secondly, there is no backspace key. This would make it so much easier to fix the most common typos. Instead, you must clear and re-enter the entry altogether. Not a huge problem, but just a bit inconvenient.

Was A great Tape Calculator

Prior to the update this was just the best classic tape calc. It was straightforward and worked really well. The update is buggy to say the least. The last several times I tried the basic now-handicapped version (keep in mind I had previously paid for the app) — which the update converted my paid version to — it was completely non-functional. By that I mean it would not function as a calculator. I emailed the developer and they did not respond. I was just looking for instructions on how to make the now-hobbled app I had always used just be a calculator. This brings me to the next concern. If the update was going to turn my paid-for app into a nothing-app there should have been some warning. This was underhanded I feel. I don’t mind paying a developer for their hard work. But don’t steel my previous purchase. Let me know what you are doing and I will decide. I have since found a replacement tape calc app (10 Key Universal Calc) and was happy to pay 3 times the cost of the ‘key’ to make CrowdCafe’s app a calculator again. (Still only talking $6).

Good app made bad! Don’t update! Don’t buy!!

This was a good app that was intuitive and easy to use. Calculators should be quick and easy to use, as this one used to be. However, This latest “modern” update turns an easy to use app into an obtuse mess. Grey fonts on a light grey background make reading difficult. Minimized / no borders around anything make icons and functions bleed together. Hiding the tape so one can now “scroll it” instead of just looking at it when it was normally visible, is just dumb, and makes one hunt for something that just used to be there. Save yourself frustration and stay with the current version. Do NOT update like I did. Also, given the history of this developer, do NOT buy! Most likely, in a couple of years the developer will release another update that will again invalidate your previous purchases. I don’t trust companies that take away features you paid for, just so they can charge you again for an app that was previously working fine. Off to find a replacement.

Terrible Update

Hate the change to the interface. Lost all the original functionality that I paid for (tape, interface choice, export, printing) etc. Expect me to pay for it again? Don’t think so.Can some one please tell me how I can restore the old version?I received a response from the developer explaining that all the functionality of the prior version was still there. Functionality, maybe but usability, no. Here is my reply to the developersI used your calculator app on my iPad for many years. I liked it very much. The interface was clean and professional. I liked the “tape” function.The latest update completely changed the interface. It is now one big blob of white where you can barely tell the buttons apart. The tape is no longer conveniently beside the calculator. It must be accessed separately.I understand that the colors can be changed with the in app purchase. That’s not the point. The new interface and way the calculator/tape work is a step backwards. For me the calculator is now clunky , awkward and difficult to use. For me it’s so bad that I had to delete the update and restore the old version.Consider going back to what worked because for me this doesn’t, and I’m certainly not going to purchase the premium features since the basics are unusable for me.

Developer Response
It is needed to say that in-app purchase offers only new, premium functionality. The all previous functionality remains as free update. All Settings are available when you pull the calculator display down and reveal Clear, Settings and Export buttons.
