We analyzed 89 negative reviews of PCalc from the App Store. Here's what users are saying.
Despite being the market leader at $10 price point, PCalc suffers from critical layout bugs that have persisted for months, lacks basic documentation, and frustrates users with hidden paywalls after purchase. The app cannot properly handle parentheses or full equation input, making it inferior to basic TI-83 functionality despite premium positioning.
"The layout is broken on iPad, some of the buttons are at random places, that's been going on for at least a few months."
"The app is well written and works well but its biggest failure is the lack of a manual. Surely for $10 one could at least expect a guide or manual to explain how to use all the functionality of the app."
Home Screen widget used to be great but it’s been gone for years and hasn’t been updated to keep up with iOS
The latest update removed the widget calculator. It was nice and convenient to have. I’m not sure why it was not able to transfer and work with the latest update.
Lost widget function with iOS 18. Needs to come back.
NO DARK MODE ICON. ADD IT.
The iOS 18 update killed the widget, please fix! Literally the only reason I paid for this app.
Can I get my money back.
If I place the calculator in the background to collect figures, the calculator clears the register.. Argg If I want support I have to sign up for a social media site. Nope
No easy way to see history, which is the only reason I paid for it.
