I used to love this app... But now it has stopped working, and it no longer responds to user inputs. The haptic feedback works, but there is no number display, which renders it useless The last update is listed as late October, so I suspect that screwed things up. Let's get on it, HP! Okay - it seems that all I needed to do was to re-set the application, and now it works perfectly. That puts it back up to 5-star territory. There was no better financial calculator & there is no better emulator.
Love the old tried and true that I've used for over 35 years. I did want to share a fix I discovered after a recent update made my display blank (just the top where numbers should appear). Any time I'd tap a number key the display area would remain blank. I went into landscape mode and at lower left corner is a Menu button. Press that and select Reset. That restored my display.
The hp12c is amazing once you take a little time to understand how it functions, BUT i wouldnt buy it for my phone again. It worked great at first, both portrait and landscape and then the landscape stopped. That made it impossible to do financial calculations. It stopped completely today and wont even accept or register any keystrokes. Someone else mentioned the same problem. The suggested solutions dont work either. Dont buy it.
Worked great for several years. Now will not so numbers in display. I would have given it minus 5 stars if I could. It is now usless!! A comment by a previous rater said to turn the app to landscape screen and press the menu button. Select RESET and the number screen will show numbers. It now works great. Now rated it a 5 star.
This app no lobger works on my Galaxy S9. it stopped working properly many updates ago. The buttons, when pressed display the incorrect characters or they don't function at all. I have uninstalled and reinstalled it many times. i guess I'll have to buy a different one.
I have had this app for years and it was useful, just like the physical calculator. It recently stopped working and Uninstall and re-install did not fix the problem. Maybe the October 2019 update broke the app. In any event, it is useless now.
The portrait view is NOT an hp 12C calculator! This is a rip-off since other apps i use are portrait mode and I use the calculator in the same orientation. It is a hassle to have to constantly reorient my phone for this app. I'm heading back to a 12C knockoff that knows how to provide users an intelligent portrait implementation of the 12C!
The HP 12C app worked fine, until it didn't. The app stopped responding to keystrokes. This is true in both modes. I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it. It sul doesn't work. If anyone has a fix, I would like to see it.
Recently purchased the Galaxy Note 10+ now this app doesn't run on this device. Have uninstalled and reinstalled and still doesn't work. Wonder what HP will do about it? I have just discovered if you go into landscape view hit the menu then reset. It started to work.
Display stopped working on my Galaxy Note S9. The app worked great for a long time, but the display no longer works. Sad, as this was my favorite calculator app. Update: I found "resetting"the app with the reset button under settings made the display work again. Adjusting review back to 5 stars.
App was working fine, but updated to latest version on 1/2020 and now display does not show anything or allow numbers to be inputted, rendering app useless. UPDATE: 4/2020 If numbers are not showing when you type, Go to landscape mode, click MENU, then RESET
Since the recent Samsung S8 update. The app no longer works. When pressing buttons, the previous button displays. Used to be good, completely useless now. I contacted HP they ignored me. Don't bother with this app.
I have had this app for a while, worked just as good as the real calculator, but it has stopped working. I have uninstalled it, reinstalled it and it still does not work. Other reviewers have had the same issue so it's not a phone problem, but an app issue. I want my money back or I want the app to be fixed.
Big problem... just developed. I love this app. I get to carry my 12C around with me everywhere. After years of use its stopped working. I can feel the numbers being typed in but the register screen is blank. I've uninstalled and installed but still no numbers showing up.
Was working great but now the keyboard won't accept input anymore. Is there a fix coming soon? In landscape view selected Menu button and then selected reset. All is working great again. Thanks for the idea.
Stopped working suddenly but a few weeks later after re-installing it worked again. I use this app for work and paid for it, so I expect it to work ALL the time! When it does work, it's great. Just like the old HP-12C.
This stopped working altogether. Unresponsive. Useless. I loved this app when it worked. /// revised review: OK, the menu reset trick worked, but now I'm wary and I don't want to offer a fresh 5 star review. Inducement for repeat offense and others to break the app to get fresh 5star reviews.
This app is superb!!! Locked it in landscape mode and never struggled, not even once. Also, it is a few more split seconds faster than the physical calculator.
This was my favourite hand-held calculator and was happy to install the app. It worked great until a few days ago on my Pixel, but now, after many re-installs it no longer works. As I recall I paid for this app so I'm very disappointed.
See Ken's review, below. You can fix the app by resetting it. Then in settings you can lock landscape mode. Works perfectly to fix it. Best calculator of all time.
Worked great for a year. Recently stopped working. Unresponsive. Fixed by tapping the menu button and choosing reset. Now good as new
Stopped working Samsung S7. I uninstalled and reinstalled and it still isn't working. The app opens but does not display numbers and nothing can be input. I regret spending the $15 on the app.
This calculator is very fun & easy to use. Took some time to get used to this calculator. I used it all the time for math class at school. All I need to do is tap a number + tap enter + tap a diffrent or same number + operation (+ × ÷ or -) for math. Would love to own the real HP 12C someday just because it was that fun to use.
It doesnt work when it flips to horizontal mode, everything is off by 1 key... paid for a app that doesnt work! Update 12/16- it completely stop working! I want my money back!
Paid for this app and it doesn't work anymore. Deleted and reinstalled with no success. Reached out to HP and they have failed to respond. This is upsetting. Such an incredible calculator that I use daily. HP you owe me a response.
Fix for it not working on Android - turn phone to landscape, hit menu in bottom left corner, then it works from then on in portrait or landscape. Bizarre...
App typically worked fine on my Pixel but it seems that after the most recent update it has gone completely unresponsive. Not sure what happened.
After working fine for years, app stopped working. Both portrait and landscape models are frozen. Developer does not respond to email help request. OK... an update here. I found a ”solution” (more like a work-around) from other reviewers. To paraphrase, if the app does not reply to input, turn the phone on its side into landscape mode. Tap ”Menu”, then ”Reset”. That made the app function again but does not excuse the total lack of response from HP. Leaving rating at 2 for that reason.
