But which should you use? Let’s look at some of the best calculator apps for iPad today. Plus, do you really want to do all that in a public space like the library or classroom?įortunately, as Federighi said, many calculator apps exist in the App Store. But the chances of Siri hearing incorrectly are high – which is just as stressful. Instead of typing, you can also use Siri to do the hard work. This scientific calculator can solve fundamental arithmetic problems like addition and subtraction and trigonometric and logarithmic functions, but you have to type out the whole equation or problem, which is not as convenient as using a dedicated calculator app. For instance, you need to access the Spotlight Search tool to bring it up. However, the iPad does have a calculator, but it is not an app like the iPhone. Federighi speculated, It might happen, but the App Store already has too many options.

In 2020, Apple’s senior vice president of software engineering, Craig Federighi, said they’d wanted to build something unique but hadn’t gotten it right. The calculator app for iPadOS has still not been introduced by Apple – even in version 16 (which now includes the Weather app). Steve Jobs quickly scrapped it, and a calculator optimized for iPads couldn’t be designed before it was released. When Apple released its first iPad in 2010, it already had an iPad calculator available, but it was just a redesigned version of the iPhone app. However, there is a calculator on your iPad. That means it won’t appear on the home screen, in the App Manager, or Control Center.

Strangely, Apple does not offer an iPad version of its Calculator app.
