New icon needs to go!

The app is good, but the splash screen and the new icon are so terrible, that Im going to delete the app if theyre not remedied in a future update.

Hide it in a folder...

Good Lord, what have you done to the icon? I use this app every day, now I have to put it in a drawer so I dont have to look at it.

button sensitivity

is anyone else having issues with button sensitivity since the last update? it have been far less responsive than before on my 4s and is becoming a huge annoyance.

Great App, horrible icon

This really is a wonderful app, but the icon is one of the ugliest Ive seen on the whole app store. I may move it to a folder, just for the ugly icon. For App Icons, usually simplicity and elegance rule, and this one bites the dust.

Please please please change the Icon!

The application itself is fine, but the new icon is hard to find (and impossible to read) on my iPhone. It looks like it was designed for this page in the iTunes store. And the splash screen is a waste of time -- you dont need to market to people who already have the app!

To Icon haters: get a grip!

This is a fantastic app that I have used since the first version. The developer does a good job keeping the app up to date and has considerably improved it over time. I have been using a 12c since 1983 and I can say unequivocally that this app is a significant improvement. For one thing, I always have it with me. And even though this is an emulator, it runs much faster! Finally, is a 1 star review really necessary because "the icon is ugly?" How about emailing the developer and expressing your feelings (nicely) about that icon? Anyone who took the time to "ding" this fine product because of the icon really should be ashamed of themselves. You are only reinforcing the stereotype of the shallow iPhone owner more concerned about style than substance. Really folks, time to take a look in the mirror and get a life…

A Classic

Lose the ugly distracting logo of the cartoon guy on the keyboard. Earlier version better.

Absolute crap!

Installed onto iPhone 5. Tried to perform simple compound equation and got crazy answers!!!!

Good emulation but...

I have used the Fin 12C clone for years but with my upgrade to a 5, it didnt restore since it isnt in the App Store anymore. This app appears to emulate the HP 12C well so far; but come on developers, learn your audience. As others have stated, the icon is lousy, the flash cartoon is outrageous as is the cartoon head in the logo on the app screen. Business professionals are using this app and its embarrassing to let someone see you use it. Again, learn who your audience is and fix the silliness.

Works Great

This app does everything my old 12c does, and looks just like it , without the scratches. Great app at a great price, works fine on my 4s. I like that you can view the registers, works in portrait and landscape, and quick.

Just simply wrong

This calculator gives completely innaccurate results given the assumption that it is modeled after the 12-c. I would not recommend it. Go buy a more expensive option

Finance user

Would be five stars but latest release starts in Algebraic mode and cannot be switched back to RPN. Very frustrating.

RPN isnt working in the new update!

If theres a setting to correct this, I sure as heck cant find it.

DO NOT UPGRADE if you want RPN

They locked it out - this version no matter what they say, loses RPN, even though the keys arent labeled as such - the screen (and mode) is stuck in algebraic. What used to be one of the best 12c emulators has gone away - too bad. I want the last version back please...

What did you do with my settings?

Fix it!

Useless

Upside down calculator with Smart Cover in higher position.

Best HP12C App ever!!

Incredible real, all functions, amazing program editor make this App better than the real one.

Great Rpn calc

Great 12c calc, however it fails to rotate w/home button on right side in landscape mode.

Cant rotate (MY ERROR)

I erroneously posted a review yesterday saying the app will not rotate. It turns out the app worked fine and it was my error. My apologies.

Love it, like having my 12c with me

Hard to go wrong with this app. It can do everything I know how to do on a 12c plus it can email me an amortization table unlike the real thing.
