We're sorry, but your 30 day trial has ended. Please pay for Calculator Pro, or watch this 30 second advertisement to continue your calculation.

Just use the default one that came with your phone.

LOL, no kidding, ya don't say huh?

Some folks use 3rd party scientific and/or programming calculator apps, which do tend to come with advertising banners.

There are like 20 different calculator apps on F-Droid, ranging from basic to scientific. There's plenty of instances where the dystopia screws you, calculators ain't one of them.

I wouldn't trust AI to do multiplication correctly.

No, but it's a cool novelty!
