iCalc: Photo Math Calculator

Why let users download the app for free, but not let them get a their first look at it, forcing them to agree to pay a weekly fee in order to get the opportunity to evaluate if it fits their use case? To make money off the people who forget to, or don’t realize they have to, cancel the subscription. There’s no other reasonable conclusion. Other apps offer a free trial period that doesn’t leave them on the hook at the end, and iCalc could, as well, but has decided otherwise.

The primary functions I wanted to test were the AI questions and the camera solving which were supposed to be free today but alas, the app only allows the “plus” functions. Thought it would be great to use with my kids as they struggle a bit in math and I need as many ways as possible to show them the usefulness of it, how it applies and the proper ways to arrive at a solution. So basically another basic calculator for me to throw in the calculator bin folder on my phone and probably never use again. Pretty bummed out but whatever. Made me write a review.

It doesn’t get any better than this. The only thing I would ask the developer is to make ALL data collection voluntary. Add a On/Off switch, please! Otherwise, stellar app.
