Tydlig App Reviews

I would love a Mac version with a native filetype (as well as on iOS) and handoff support. Well worth the cost, great calculator with almost all the features

Ive used at least a dozen different free and paid calculator apps. This one is closest to a TI-8x type graphing calculator I could find that wasnt an emulator. Some of the function buttons could be easier to access but overall great app. I love how you can combine equations or change past calculations.

Best Thank you.

I like that I can see all my work, but I can use it for my calculus class because Tydlig does not haves some of the futures that I need.

So whats new with the newer versions since I bought this? Support for iPhones and iPads I dont own and support for newer iOS versions (of no obvious value to me). And being nagged to review a new version that offers me no new features is pretty annoying. Id like to be able to save separate pages or work surfaces. I get it that supporting new hardware and new OS software involves real work and costs real money, and takes real time. But Id gladly pay for multiple pages! And Ill do so via an in-app purchase. If you provide me with real value, Ill gladly give you real (if modest) money. Id also pay for an in-app purchase that *disables review me! notifications*! Or, you know, just stop nagging me to do so for free. Ill gladly give you a five star review for that change. And you can even nag me to review one last time after I upgrade to the version with that feature.

I have used a lot of calculator apps in the past. This is the best and the most useful calculator app I have ever used. I am a landscape gardener and use a lot of calculations in my work. Especially, when I spray pesticides which involves a lot of calculations to determine the correct amount of products and in determining acreages, etc. I use this app constantly and helps make my job easier. I have an iPhone and an iPad and you must always keep the support and updates going. Keep up the good work.

I use this calculator everyday, even on my days off. Its so simple and clean that it makes doing calculations a breeze. It allows you to show your work just like our teachers told us we should. I would love to see an update for pages or worksheets. I say this because I have a formula that I use everyday and change everyday so anything new has to go below that. It would be nice to work on a clean page. You could even do a 3D Touch option for a tip calculator formula or maybe even user customizable! I would pay for the features mentioned above but if Im being honest I would only pay $1.99.

I really enjoy this calculator on the iPhone; however, in order to use the percentage sign on the iPad Pro (and Im assuming on other iPads as well), you have to expand a separate menu. Whereas on the iPhone the % and a few others are all part of the standard number pad. Why is it that on a device with more real estate, you have to enable a menu that is typically hidden by default... But on the iPhone it isnt? Its odd... The iPad app should be just as full-featured and intuitive as the iPhone equivalent, if not even more so.

The app is beautifully made. It would have potential for more if additional functionality were added.

It blows my mind that nobody before these guys thought about reinventing the calculator, given what was now allowed by a touch device. This app is incredibly good and replaced the original calculator app that was on my iPhone. I use it almost every day. Seriously, its a no brainer, just get it.

The way people really want a calculator to work

Great tool

This is a great calculator that I use nearly everyday. I find it intuitive easy to use and the visual aspect of seeing the tape is very useful.

Ive always found this app amazing, and it has kept up with changes in iOS, but it really hasnt evolved lately. Would kill to be able to saved the sheets Ive built

This is an update after about 2 years of using Tydlig daily: no bugs or glitches, and 5 stars review still stands. Tydlig is the most “unique” (as in “unique” = “different and good”) of all the 20 or so calculators I’ve tried (and I have no association with the developer). I keep trying other calcs, and this has become my everyday, preferred calculator. In use, Tydlig is elegant and has a clean, obvious UI that is easy to use as a “normal” calculator. The cool feature that I like is the ability to touch and drag your numbers around, even pulling a number out of a calculation, and placing it in another calculation, and then pulling THAT result into the original calculation, to do a “what if” calculation. This may sound complicated, but it is very much like writing on a piece of paper, and drawing arrows into some other calculation, minus the erasing and smeared mess. AND, Tydlig shows the slender connecting lines from one calculation to another, so I don’t lose the sense of what I was doing when I moved the numbers around. The edges of the main screen are a little busy (lots of possible settings, options, and places to send the info --currently PDF, print, screenshot--, multiple redos, trig functions, etc, but the main calculator area is open and clean. This developer thought “outside the box”, when I didn’t even notice that I was working in a box. Very Nice Job.

I found this app to be an excellent calculator. It is easy to use. It has many great features.

Best calculator app Ive seen before but maybe add in fractions? But I still love your app keep up the good work !!!!!

When I do budgeting equations I used to need pen and paper. Now I just use Tydlig, making solving complicated equations as easy as a pen and paper.

Reimagined indeed! Tydlig has become my calculator of choice. Brilliant. Most apps simulate the functionality of pre-digital technologies—e-books whose pages you can “turn,” e-calculators whose buttons you can “press”, e-canvases on which you can “paint”, and so on—but this app uses the digital medium far more creatively, in several ways. The first is that it allows the user to link the components of any calculation to the components of any other calculation, to move those components around freely around the work surface, and to change the value of any of those components at will. Any change in a component is immediately reflected in all the calculations that share that component. In this way, the app functions like a spreadsheet, but without the rigidity of rows and columns of cells. Tidy lines and arrows indicate what is connected to what, and the ability to give each component a label that travels with it wherever it goes makes it easy to see what the inputs and outputs actually mean. The second significant innovation is the app’s graphing capabilities. These will seem strange indeed to anyone used to thinking of graphs as representations of equations like y = mx + b, or f(x)=log x, because the app has no way of explicitly representing variables. Instead, if the graphing option is selected from a menu associated with a calculation, the app graphs the general function of which the calculation is a particular instance. This works well, but it surely takes some getting used to. There are some design oddities that should perhaps be considered outright flaws: there is a “copy” command, but no “paste.” (So what does “copy” do?) The work surface (“canvas”) is of infinite extent, but there is only one. There is, therefore, no way to save a set of calculations (having to do, say, with home remodelling costs), and start a new set of calculations (having to do, perhaps, with your child’s physics homework) without creating an unbearably cluttered and confusing workspace. The function set is good—it includes factorials, a random number generator, and a modulus operator, none of which appear reliably in most calculator interfaces. The only operator missing is a reciprocal. Tydlig is quick, elegant, flexible, ingenious, and practical. I hope its developers receive the encouragement they have earned, and that they keep adding to the app’s power and usability.

Love the app but its frustrating the creators havent put in a clear all button in the interface. I can clear a line, individual sections and such but I really need to just clear everything on the screen quickly and efficiently. Ill be switching away from it if this doesnt show up soon.
