Calculators Good iPhone Calculator Apps: Graphs & More

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the search for effective iPhone calculator apps, particularly for graphing purposes. MathStudio is highlighted as a notable option, with users considering it as a potential replacement for traditional graphing calculators like the TI-83+. Concerns are raised about the use of smartphone calculators during tests due to cheating possibilities, with many preferring to stick to scientific calculators like the TI-36X Pro for exam situations. Other calculator options mentioned include the TI-89 Titanium, TI-nSpire CX CAS, and HP-50, with a preference for RPN calculators like the HP-41C and its iPhone emulation, i41CX. Additionally, WolframAlpha is recognized for its unmatched capabilities in calculations.

Curious if anyone has found any good iphone calculator apps? Anything good for graphing?
 
Computer science news on Phys.org
Anyone think an iphone or ipad app would replace a traditional graphing calculator?
 
I know one exists, but I can't remember its name. I know, I'm a big help.

Here's a good one, or so it seems. I'm still deciding if I want to buy it, however.

I don't expect students will ever be able to use smartphone calculators on tests due to the whole internet/cheating thing, but I mostly just use my TI-36X Pro scientific calculator on tests anyway.

MathStudio or TI-89 Titanium or TI-nSpire CX CAS or HP-50...decisions, decisions.
 
I use the i41CX.

Hands down the best RPN calculator ever made was the HP-41C and this is the best iPhone emulation of it.
 
I like two apps very well, i41cx as noted above without the CAS, and WolframApha,(unmatched)
 
This week, I saw a documentary done by the French called Les sacrifiés de l'IA, which was presented by a Canadian show Enquête. If you understand French I recommend it. Very eye-opening. I found a similar documentary in English called The Human Cost of AI: Data workers in the Global South. There is also an interview with Milagros Miceli (appearing in both documentaries) on Youtube: I also found a powerpoint presentation by the economist Uma Rani (appearing in the French documentary), AI...
