I was utterly frustrated by the lack of an included calculator on my iPad. I downloaded several "free" calculator apps hoping for a simple solution but found ads. I came across a Reddit post full of colorful words due to the same frustrations and discovered a suggestion for Numerical. It still offers a paid upgrade but no ads and it works beautifully. Its simple and even elegant in its own way. This the THE free calculator for iPad. You can stop here. And because they provided a straight forward solution Im willing to pay just to support. So, thank you.
