minimalist calculator 4+

I downloaded half a dozen calculators before finding this one. Obviously, I wasn’t happy with any of them. This one is perfect. It does everything it needs to do without the bloat that so many other calculators throw in. It is perfectly and elegantly simple. Who knew that finding a calculator that kept a running total was so hard to find? This one does that. I also like that I can float it over everything so if I’m working on my checkbook and bank statements, I don’t have to keep opening the calculator…it’s right there where I need it. To the developers: Thank you so much. You are appreciated!!! To the rest of you, get this app!

Apple's calculator is brain-damaged: Unlike every other calculator, it doesn't process calculations in the order you enter them. For example, if you enter 50 50 ÷ 2, instead of getting 50, you get 75, because Apple processes it as 50 (50 ÷ 2).

Minimalist Calculator operates the way common calculators have operated since they were invented in the 1970s: calculating in the order you make the entries.

Besides that, it's a floating, transparent window, so it never gets in the way of whatever figures you're looking at in some other window that you need to enter.

You can copy what it generates, paste values in, store values in 10 different memory slots, get the difference between two dates, record macros, and use RPN mode if you like.

"Minimalist Calculator" is a misnomer; it's much more than that, and certainly better than Apple's ridiculousy app.

This is a great app that meets most of my needs for a calculator. It’s minimalistic, easy to use and takes up only a tiny piece of real estate on my screen.
