Maker Calc Fraction Calculator

I’m a woodworker and who’s made my share of fraction-related mistakes. More than I’d care to admit. And yes, I could switch to metric like some of my other woodworking friends, but I don’t want to. I use this app nearly every day. It’s well laid out, easy to see with my older eyes, and it does basic fractional math really well. I especially like the bar graph the app displays when a number is between your selected precision - you can quickly tell if, for example, the result is closer to 3/32” or 1/8”, and by how much. Really useful. Great, stable app.

With the exception of the round up, round down feature (which is fantastic) the calculator is comparable to the free calculators already out there. If the round up, round down, granularity could be changed from 1/ 16th, to a 32nd, or better yet a 64th I would buy it in a heartbeat. The ability to change granularity is present. I just didn’t look hard enough. The rounding feature puts this product head and shoulders above others.

There are few apps that are truly worth using over and over again, this is one of them. It’s for the seasons carpenters and wood workers as much as it is for a DIY’er like myself. Measurements always make my brain hurt trying to figure out exactly where to make a cut. But this app takes the hard calculations and makes it easy to visualize so I don’t have to worry I am doing the math wrong. Worth it in every way.
