CalcTape Paper Tape Calculator

Not updated in 2 years. Developers are AWOL.

This app is by far the best calculator app I’ve tried. Just the fact you can create notes while performing calculations makes it a great choice. Their website have a web version where you can try, they even have a free PC version.

I am using this app since around 5-6 years without any issues. Unlike other similar apps available for iOS, I like the tape format which helps me to continue performing my new calculations… while the old calculations are still available for future reference. I also like the feature that helps me to save calculations under different tape names, because at a later date I can reopen the saved tape (as if it is like a document) related to a particular matter and refer my old calculations. However, I am disappointed to see that the developer has almost stopped updating (or enhancing) this app, because I see the last update was released around 1 year ago. I would like to see more frequent updates to keep this useful app alive. Keep up the good work👍

It would be nice to press “AC “- and a notification would ask- - if you are sure (and a little message about, “all of your information will be erased if you agree”). That would be a nice feature. Thank you!

I bought it years ago and uninstalled it because of dark mode, and today(Feb 2024) after years it still doesn’t support dark mode even though it supports Themes and has a “night” mode! Which darkens half of the UI.

I’ve used for years and it was my go to instead of a regular calculator. The biggest feature was that you could make an ABC formatted comment next to a numeric item you’re calculating. Now no matter how you enter the numeric item, and then want to add an ABC formatted comment, it won’t work. I also have a persistent very old entry I can’t delete. The app now shuts down frequently in middle of entering numbers or comments. Uninstalling and reinstalling doesn’t work. I also lost a year old item I had stored in the cloud that I referred to often and made tweaks. I opened it today, with latest update…it’s simply GONE. It coincided with my installing the iPad vs of this for the first time today. I guess selecting to save things in the cloud, means anything saved local (because I’m such a long time user) caused me to lose access to the file. It worked so well. Like most apps, you need a trash can (at least if something is accidentally deleted by you can retrieve it), and settings how to save should be available not just at initial app install. As it stands now, after years of loving it, it’s useless.

Easy to use and has nice useful calc abilities.

I love this app but every time I want to add words to label or add number I have to keep clicking the keyboard or tape buttons that are right next to the red A/C clear it all button. Too many times have I lost months of data that I’ve entered over time because that red button is in the wrong spot. This red button needs to be at the button of the selections so there is no way to hit this button by mistake. I’m frustrated and hoping you will read my post to make some positive changes.

I use this app every day and I really appreciate it’s design, simplicity, and convenience. Thank you and I look forward to future updates!
