Carry on from the answer above. Press Return, type +, −, ×, ÷, ^ or %, and the new line starts with the answer above as a live value that follows that line. Backspace right after gives you the plain sign back, for a line that starts with −5. Also: on iPhone and iPad, references to other lines now show their value, like on the Mac, and on the Mac typing // now starts a comment.

Alerts. Write EUR in USD alert > 1.10 on any line and Jotsum tells you when the rate crosses your number. Part of Jotsum Pro. Note history. Every note keeps its earlier versions. Open History to see what the numbers were and restore one. Part of Jotsum Pro. Notes that read each other. Keep rent in a note called Constants and write Constants.rent anywhere else. Quick Calc on the Mac. Press Option Space in any app for a floating scratch pad. Also: a faint one-month line next to rates and stocks, hold a total to see how it splits, notes in Spotlight search, 10 AAPL now works, more currency names and symbols, and safer sync between devices.

Numbers your way. Choose decimal places (29, 29.0 or 29.00) and thousands separators in Settings, or give one note its own format with the new 123 button. Part of Jotsum Pro. New Jotsum Note. Add it to Control Center, the Lock Screen or the Action button, and a fresh note is one tap away. Start from a real note. The intro now ends with a budget, a bill split, a trip priced in another currency or a stock watch, ready for your numbers. Already using Jotsum? Settings ▸ Watch the Intro Again. Also: try a line yourself in the intro, and small fixes, including answers that showed "-0".

Hold an answer to see what it was built from: the named numbers behind it, and where each one sits on the page. On Mac, right-click an answer. For when you reopen a note months later and can't remember how you got to the total.

Two fixes for splitting a bill: • Take several shares of one subtotal — 40% of subtotal on one line, 35% on the next — and each now takes its share of the same block. The second share used to come out as 0. • Naming a line after a word Jotsum already uses (total = dinner + tip) now says the name is taken, instead of leaving the line blank.

Maintenance update: a refreshed App Store listing. Nothing changes in the app itself.

Jotsum now greets you on first launch: meet the app, watch four sample answers land as if you were typing them, and see your notes on Mac, iPhone and iPad. The Pro banner shatters away the moment a purchase lands, the paywall swaps its copy through a blur, and empty screens show the new j= mark. Every effect respects Reduce Motion. Also fixed: a hang at launch when reinstalling with notes already in iCloud.

A new app icon. The j now sits on deep green next to an equals sign, so Jotsum is far easier to pick out on a crowded Home Screen — the old cream tile tended to disappear against light wallpapers.

Fixes an issue on iPhone and iPad where a page's text could be invisible. If pages looked empty, this update brings them back — nothing was lost. Also in this update: • Pages open ready to type, right where you left off • Date math follows the calendar: "days till christmas", "31 jan + 1 month" • Percentages work with durations: "8 hours + 15%" • Emoji in notes are preserved on the Mac • Many stability fixes across sync, undo, and the keypad

Fixes and new conversions. • Undo now steps back one change at a time, instead of clearing the whole note. • Editing a number next to a thousands separator now works. • New: month and year conversions, plus countdowns like “days until Christmas”. • sum, average, min, and max now handle mixed currencies. • Faster, more reliable iCloud sync.

Fixes, including several that could give a wrong answer. • Subtracting or dividing with a currency respects the order you wrote: "100 - 30 usd" is $70. • Commas inside functions read correctly — max(1,2) is 2, not 12. • Hours and days keep their units when scaled: "2 h × 3" is 6 h. • A stock quote that hasn't loaded no longer reads as a same-named currency. • Three crashes fixed: very large numbers, and undo after auto-formatting or inserting a line reference. • Line references stay pointed at the line you picked when you add or remove lines above them. • Numbers written on a device that uses "1.234,56" are no longer rewritten when opened elsewhere. • Your notes now sync during the free trial, as promised. • Typing is much faster in long documents. iPhone & iPad: text size and appearance settings, folder rename and delete, Empty Trash, exchange-rate freshness, and keyboard shortcuts on iPad.

Jotsum now understands Spanish — type "suma", "20% de descuento en 500", "clima en cdmx", or "hoy a navidad". It also understands spoken math in both languages: "12 plus 4", "100 divided by 4", "6 por 7". The app itself now speaks Spanish, German, French, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Swedish and Russian. Also in 1.5: 1.5M / 2 billion magnitudes, totals that skip dates instead of silently breaking, comma-decimal input for European keyboards, a Mac answers column that fits its contents, tap-to-copy answers on iPhone, and a 30-day free Pro trial with a new $9.99/year plan.

Now on iPad, with the library alongside your work. Weather looks ahead. Ask about any day, not just right now — "weather in cancun tomorrow", "sunset in madrid on friday". New questions too: humidity, wind, the day's high and low, and sunrise/sunset, always in the place's own time zone. Money reaches further: over 160 currencies now, including the Colombian peso, Argentine peso, Chilean peso, dirham and rouble. Also new: implicit multiplication, so 50(6) is 300. Fixed: new pages open ready to type, rows show the folder they live in, and long answers no longer get cut off.

• Plain-language money math — type "$300k loan at 6% for 30 years" and get the monthly payment. Also "tip 15% on $80", "20% markup on 50", and more. • Subtotals — write "subtotal" under a block of lines to sum it; "total" adds up the whole sheet without double-counting. • Autocomplete — Jotsum suggests your own variable names and functions as you type, so a typo never silently becomes a note. • Mix currencies freely — "MX$100 + $5 usd" just works, converted at live rates. And "$" now means your currency, based on your region. • Names with spaces — "coffee per day = 4" defines a variable you can reuse anywhere. • Export on iPhone — share any sheet as CSV, Markdown, HTML, or PDF. • Home Screen widget — see your latest calculation at a glance, plus a "Calculate with Jotsum" Siri shortcut. • One color for variables, calmer notes, and many calculation fixes

Jotsum arrives on iPhone — the same calculator notepad as the Mac app, with a custom math keypad, live currency and stock conversion, folders, and a warm editorial look. Go Pro to sync your sheets with your Mac.
