xNeat Calculator+ 2.0
A calculator that actually looks awesome
Normally these tools don’t need much visual oomph to get downloaded. If it does its job that’s all that matters. But some people prefer their utility apps to also display a nice interface. For that, you have Calculator+, one of the best looking utilities in the iTunes App Store today.
You can change themes and fonts, choose different colors for individual parts of the screen, and even save your custom themes. Many of these features are under a paywall, but the basic functionality is there for the taking.
More than just a calculator
Calculator+ is much more than a simple math tool. It’s also a handwriting calculator, a linear calculator, a graphic calculator, a currency converter, and more. The problem is that most of these advertised perks are in-app purchases. But you still get the normal + scientific calculator for free. And that’s what most people need.
Unlike other apps in this category, you can tweak a variety of settings, from sound to fonts and colors, making it ideal for people who prefer a specific color set, or certain tweaks that help them with their workflow.
Like Apple’s own calculator, you can turn to landscape mode and instantly activate the scientific calculator. It’s a pretty slick app overall and we recommend downloading it at least to try it out.
Too many IAPs
Here’s where we’d love to score it higher but we simply can’t. Most of the advertised functionality is actually behind a paywall. That said, we can appreciate that the core calculator functionality is free, and that it packs customization features unlike many other calculator apps.

Bottom Line
Design / UI9
Gorgeous interface with numerous customization options for themes, fonts and colors for individual parts. |
Function8
Has more math tools built in than you could ever use in a lifetime, but only the basic functionality is up for grabs without spending money. However, it will more than fit the bill for most people’s needs. |
Security10
It takes screen grabs and secretly sends them over-the-air to the government. Just kidding. It’s fully local and doesn’t pose any security threats. |
Battery9
Normal consumption levels. |
Price6
Most of the advertised functionality is behind a paywall |
Compatibility8
iOS 7 and up with a dedicated version for the iPad. The tablet version will probably be very useful for those who require a graphic calculator. |
