I’ve been playing around with the iPadOS 18 calculator, and some of the stuff is neat, but I think it’s probably more of a threat to Soulver and the like, than it is to PCalc.

It doesn’t do RPN, custom layouts, user functions / conversions / constants, multiple memories, hex/oct/binary, visual themes, and a lot more that PCalc does. It does have nicer expression based entry, which is something I want to add.

The Math Notes stuff feels like it’s a separate app.

Also, no bananas whatsoever!

@jamesthomson My thoughts exactly. Math Notes looks great, but it's not a direct competitor to traditional calculators like PCalc. The new iPad calculator app looks like two apps taped together; I'm slightly surprised they didn't just skip it and just put Math Notes in Notes.

(I'm also steeling myself for seeing "Math" rather than "Maths" a lot over the next few months...)
