8 of 15I used to love this app, quick click and you have a multifunction calculator. Now after the update, you click on it and wait and wait and wait, it finally comes up incorrectly with enlarged just basic section and you have to tilt the iPad back and forth so the complete calculator comes up. Stopped being a quick calculator and started being an annoyance. You have to wait every time you open it.
If I could rate zero stars, i would have. Purchased Pro years ago, worked quietly and reliably as a CALCULATOR APP should do. An update (which didn't mention ads or anything like it) made it onto the ipad, and now the app is unusuably polluted. They are asking $0.99/WEEK (more than $50 per year) to disable the ads and use skins. Completely insane this is a calculator. Add in the fact that this was an update to a previously paid upgrade - which removed the ads that time around, and this became an immediate uninstall.
Can’t get into the app at all since the “x” to get into the app is too close to the top of the screen <br/>Tap, tap, tap but I still can’t get in. I don’t mind the ads but this is just a way to get you to 99 cents a week.
Horrific advertisments interrupting your work. This app is the embodiment of sickening greed. Avoid.
Now every time I open the app a lousy and annoying screen pops up asking to me subscribe. For crying out, what I and many people want is a simple calculator app to do basic calculations. I don’t care about skins or any other features. It really is that simple people, no rocket science. Time to loo for another app with no annoying ads. Ut wait a minute, if I remember correctly, I paid extra to remove ads permanently. Now they want us to pay weekly, really? Apple really needs to crack down on apps like this that do not honor what they promise people when they first buy the app. But typically what this unscrupulous developers do is that they discontinue the app and start selling a similar but “improved” version and charging a subscription. Anyway, I’ll copy and paste this review just in case it disappears.
The paid version I have is a great app. Latest update, however, makes it slow to load…10 seconds or more.
The clear button did not work<br/>The second I tried use a ad popped up for some casino game every time and lost the list I was calculating <br/><br/>I deleted asap and I won’t pay for the few minutes I tried to use<br/><br/>To pop up a stupid ad in seconds while calculating <br/>Buffalo game seems more important to you than my satisfaction <br/><br/>You can’t calculate when screen go to and stays offering to buy
I installed this app many years ago and don’t recall the ad experience being soo obnoxious. Obviously the developer has wratcheted up the monetary extraction experience. How much ongoing developement does a calculator app really need or undergo, which would require such an obnoxious ad experience?<br/><br/>There are plenty of much less intrusive ad experiences to assist in financing the developer providing a “free” (ad supported) version of the app - this is not it, as it’s waaay over the top in the full screen, intrusive, obnoxious, hijacking ad experiences like at least every minute or two.<br/><br/>You had _one_ job - to be a usable calculator app. With the obnoxious ad experience you failed.
