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.
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.
… it is a calculator … all it needs is like 15 buttons and a number screen.
It is the most basic program any student programmer creates at some point during their studies. And can be shown on just about every UI you can imagine.
It is also something every person uses.
Those apple excuses you mention, are just rubbish.
They have gone publicly on record saying they didn’t find an “Appley” way to bring calculator to the iPad. As an iPad user myself who has used 3rd party calculator apps this whole time, I get it. They all suck. The interfaces are all over the place. It is enough for Apple to let users download whichever app best fit their needs, instead of staking their claim, as they do with all their other apps, that the calculator app they made is the best one.

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
