Ratings and reviews

Absolutely terrible. Most functions I want to try are behind a subscription paywall. Honestly, even a one-time cost would be better than this atrocious practice. Marking the functions unavailable to you in the applications would be a good warning at least. Doesn't help me decide what physical calculator to buy by being able to test it, but at least I know HP's Prime application you can make a single purchase to get the full feature set here on mobile.

Imposible to evaluate without entering into a registration agreement. Use the Numworks virtual calculator instead. If you like it, buy the hardware device. The reason that many books include instructions for the Casio and the TI is that they are so difficult to use that you cannot get by without that help. The Numworks is much more intuitive, most operations can be completed without all that handholding.

Worked reasonably well as an alternative to carrying an Algebra FX 2.0 plus with me in public; up until the current update to include subscription options, which broke the display scaling, truncating too much to be usable at all. 8,(
