On the feature side, also has just enough features to be\u00a0more useful than the stock calculator app for me (the handy\u00a0no-equals-button<\/em>\u00a0approach, the swift & playful\u00a0swipe-to-delete<\/em>, the handy list of previous calculations) without overwhelming with options. There’s lots of calculator competitors, but I’m not using bitwise operators or solving P=NP, so other options like\u00a0[itunes link=”https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/au\/app\/pcalc-the-best-calculator\/id284666222?mt=8&uo=4″ title=”PCalc” text=”PCCalc”] were definitely overkill, and I find\u00a0[itunes link=”https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/au\/app\/soulver-notepad-calculator\/id348142037?mt=8&uo=4″ title=”Soulver” text=”Soulver”] to be a neat idea but not quite how my brain works.<\/p>\nNumerical strikes a nice balance that I found ideal for my needs.<\/p>\n
All that aside though, can this replace the stock calculator? Well, it depends on how much you use Control Center on iOS. It’s an unfortunate truth that for quick calculations convenience is king, and having the stock calculator just a bottom-bezel swipe away is a tough proposition to beat. Let’s not beat around the bush with the price either; it is $2.99 in a crowded category. The iOS App Store chock-full of calculator apps, both free & paid.<\/p>\n
You know what though? I really\u00a0dug<\/em> using Numerical, and it was that reason that kept me going back to it.<\/p>\nNumerical is $2.99, and is [itunes link=”https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/au\/app\/numerical-calculator-without\/id804548449?mt=8&uo=4″ title=”Numerical is $2.99, and is currently available for iPhone.” text=”currently available for iPhone”].<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A calculator app that polishes the experience & ditches the equals button.\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2478,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":"","csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false}}},"categories":[2],"tags":[686,15,73,687],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"reckoner_social_message":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2473"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2473"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2473\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2478"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2473"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2473"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reckoner.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2473"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
