At least you've got a calculator app, ipads have never had one. Kind of ironic for a device that has more processing power than 1970's supercomputers.
more processing power than 1970's supercomputers.
Doesn't every computer and computer-like device for the last couple decades or more? Or is that the joke?
The joke is that ipads don't have a calculator despite having plenty of computing power
Like a watch that doesn't tell time.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
Even SD cards and USB chargers have powerful microcontrollers in them nowadays
Isn't it better though? You can install it if you want.
It's just odd, anything ever made with a user interface since the 80's has had a calculator app. Apple just remove features and charge more for something that is inherently similar to everything else they've ever done.

Ah, the joys of walled garden consumer electronics!
But it's so easy to use!
except for all these idiotic things apple doesn't allow you to do, but ignore that please
i remember as a kid when i temporarily had an iphone i thought something was broken because i couldn't access the files from my pc
Except there are tons of free calculator apps, so they aren't charging more in this case. Your criticism of Apple, in general, is warranted. Just not in this case.
I'm all for choice or whatever, but a simple system-provided calculator should be benign and lightweight enough to be there and coexist with any competing calculator app without much drawback. Like a clock or web browser.
You can use the search bar for quick calculations. That doesn’t escuses Apple from adding an calculator app on iPad! Most calculator apps have ads or are paid
Desmos is legendary.
Nerved had heard of it, looks amazing! Thanks for sharing
And I thought our admins removed it...
Isn't app store full of calculator apps?
Mostly with ads. It’s easy to argue that a calculator is more fundamental to a functional tablet than a web browser is, and Apple includes one. By all means, there ought to be a market for calculator apps, but it’s pretty fundamental to cover the basics. Also, Apple already has a calculator on iPhone and iPad runs pretty much the same software, so where is it?
