I’ve been using this app for YEAAAARS.. it’s been so long I honestly can’t even remember how long it’s actually been. I use the calculator a fair amount of times but it’s not a super frequent occurrence and originally I wanted this calculator because the Apple calculator wouldn’t let me delete a typo without deleting the entire calculation and this also tracks calculation history. Anyway, I paid for the $2.99 ad free upgrade a few years ago and everything has been fine up until a few months ago I randomly had a $2.99 credit on my Apple account. At first I had no idea where it came from UNTIL I went to use the calculator and an annoying ad covered the entire screen. Apparently they changed things and instead of a one time $2.99 charge they want $1.49/mo to use the calculator ad free. The little ads at the bottom aren’t bad but the thing that makes it unbearable and the reason why I’m deleting the app after at the very least 5 years is the ads that popup while I’m in the middle if typing which ultimately lead to me clicking on the ad and opening up safari or app store. I don’t like the fact I’m forced to open unwanted ads to god knows what. I don’t want that on my phone. Such a shame. I might have failed math in high school but this calculator is not that important to me to have to deal click on ads because they pop up while I’m typing.
Thank you for contacting us with this issue. If you have paid for ad removal in the past through buying the full version, then the Restore Purchases doesn’t work for you. The reason for that is that the full version is a separate version of the app that you need to download for the App Store. The Restore Purchase is for our new model with subscriptions, but that doesn’t mean your old purchase didn’t remain intact. If this is the case then you can simply download this again from the App Store by searching for ‘Calculator Impala Studios’, or access it through this link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/the-calculator/id396082453. You won’t be charged for this as the purchase is linked to your Apple ID. We will also make sure to still be updating and testing the full version of the app.I hope this solves your problem, and would like to apologise for the inconvenience. If you have any other questions or issues in the future, please do not hesitate to contact us at help@impalastudios.com.
