Description

Soulver 3 is ready for macOS 15 Sequoia

Do you ever grab a calculator & the back of an envelope to work through an idea or problem that involves some math?

This is what Soulver is for. You do the thinking, Soulver will do the number crunching for you.

With Soulver, you can work through your idea or problem line-by-line, using text and numbers together (just like you would on paper).

When Soulver sees something it can calculate, it will display the answer alongside your text.

You kinda have to try it to get it, but once you do, Soulver will become an invaluable part of your problem-solving toolkit.

Here is just some of the "day-to-day" calculating that Soulver can do for you:

– Everything you'd expect from a regular calculator, PLUS:
– Live currency conversions (185 supported currencies, including crypto-currencies)
– Instant sums, averages or counts of lists of numbers
– Percentage math using intuitive natural language functions
– Unit conversions (180+ supported units)
– Calendar math (dates, time intervals, clock time calculations, video timecode calculations)
– Time zone conversions
– Financial functions, like compound interest & mortgage repayments.
– Working with lap times (HH:MM:SS)
– Proportions, random numbers, rates, fractions, multipliers, & much more…

More advanced users use Soulver for building reusable & sharable sheets, taking advantage of:

– Multi-word variables (like "total cost = $750")
– Live references to previous lines (like spreadsheets)
– If/then/else statements
– Comments & headings for structure
– Variable auto-completing (just press escape)
– Export into many formats, including PDF & HTML
– Complete calculator customizability: add custom units, global variables, set custom styling (font & colors) & choose your answer formatting preferences

What’s New

Version 3.13

This update introduces additional settings including to further personalize the way your currencies are formatted.

For data service subscribers, there are also new improvements to the weather feature, including being able to perform weather queries for smaller places around the world & do historical weather queries.

# Currency Formatting

Use currency codes instead of symbols
- In the **Calculator** settings > **Currency Symbols**, you can now choose to always use currency codes (like EUR) instead of currency symbols (in this case, €)

Hide trailing zeros on currencies
- In the **Calculator** settings > **Currency Symbols**, you can now choose to hide trailing zeros on currencies. With this setting off (the default), $1 is rendered as $1.00. With this setting on, the trailing zeros will be hidden .

# Settings

New sheet/file on launch
- In the **General** settings, you can now choose to make a new sheet or Soulver file on launch

Tab for autocomplete
- In the **Formatting** settings, you can now select Tab instead of Escape as the key that invokes variable autocomplete

# Advanced Weather (requires data services subscription)

Historical weather queries (macOS 15+)
- Lookup the average, high and low temperature & rainfall in a place on a particular date
- Data is available back to August 1, 2021

Historical averages by month (macOS 15+)
- Perform weather queries for the average high/low temperature & rainfall in a place in a given month
- For example, "high in New York in June"
- Note that these are historical averages based on weather records going back to the 1970s (not maximum/minimums)

Weather & time zone queries for small places
- Soulver can already perform weather and time zone queries for ~500 of the largest cities on Earth
- New in this update is the ability to look up weather for any place on Earth, including smaller places
- For example, you can now type "weather in Ubud, Bali", or "temperature in Assisi, Tuscany"
- This feature also works for time zone queries using "time in (place)": "time in Inverness, Scotland", "time in Wollongong, NSW"
- And when working out time difference: "time difference between Kemer, Turkey and Mill Valley, Marin County"

# Bug fixes
- Fixed an issue on macOS 15 where Soulver would unnecessarily prompt for access to "data from other apps" (just to access its own group settings folder)
- Fixed an issue where a zero currency (like $0) could have unnecessary decimal places with certain dp settings (thanks Nevan)
- Fixed an issue where subtotals were not respecting custom currency formatting settings (thanks Anssi)
- Fixed an issue with larger/smaller of functions and negative currencies (thanks Ian)
- Fixed an issue introduced in 3.12 with certain variable lines needing to be manually edited to make them update (thanks Suvil & Andy)

Great Tool, Great Support -

I'm not a math geek or a programmer so I was really taken with the simplicity and ease of use in Soulver 2 when I got it. I've been using Soulver 2 on my Mac, iPad and phone, for a few years and have been very satisfied. I was going to wait until the ios versions of 3 were ready because, really, I travel all the time so I may set up things on the Mac but I use them in all kinds of mibil application. I broke down and bought 3 because of the features and flexibility and, frankly, to help support this guy in his work and to encourage him to get to work on ios. What I found so far is that I can take advantage of a lot of the ease of use in 3 while brainstorming and then copy and paste a lot of what I do with little or no correction, editing ondreconstruction when I copy and paste it back to 2 so it will sync to my icloud. This app makes me smarter and it makes my life easier.

Where have you been all my life?

First off, thank you for the 30 day free trial of all the features. It was helpful to determine if this app is worth the investment. 2 weeks in to the trial and I am gladly paying for the full version. Every day I need to quickly determine the number of days/weeks/months from a specific date at work, and for years resigned to counting on a calendar because other apps were too cumbersome. Soulver 3 makes this super fast. This app is completely different in the way you can think through problems and not need formulas. As a fan of spreadsheets, I look forward to learning what else this powerful app can do.

Be Careful Before Upgrading - Huge Step Backwards for Units

I teach engineering (dynamics and orbital mechanics) and used Soulver 2 a lot to quickly write up homework solutions — it was great for adding notes and writing out equations. However, Soulver 3 is a HUGE step backwards because of how it (doesn’t) handle units.

In Soulver 2, you could string together units like acceleration (meters/sec^2) and everything was fine. However, Soulver 3 does NOT allow you to create units like this and in fact returns an error. Which means that *nothing* that I created in Soulver 2 can be brought forward. And if I want to write up new solutions in Soulver 3, I have to ignore units.

I don’t know what changed under the hood regarding how Soulver handles units, but this is a huge disappointment to me. Because I can’t use Soulver 3. (And Soulver 2 crashes a lot in modern OS X versions.)
