Looking for a Calculator App with Unit Functionality?

In summary, the conversation discusses the search for a calculator app that can handle units. The speaker mentions using Google search but prefers a more dedicated calculator app. They then share a recommendation for the app "Graph 89 Free" which runs a ROM of the TI-89 Titanium and allows for unit conversions. The speaker emphasizes that it is illegal to download the ROM without owning the physical calculator.

Does anyone know of any calculator apps that can deal with units? I know I can do it on google search, but I was looking for something more like a calculator. I found this one: http://physyapps.com but it's only for iphone and mac.

Thanks,

Paul

The app "Graph 89 Free" on the play store will run a ROM of the TI-89 Titanium, which has built in units and unit conversions. The app is free, but the ROM must be acquired elsewhere. However, it it ILLEGAL to download the ROM or extract it from a TI-89 if you do not own it. If you own, go right ahead and use the app. I love it. It works perfectly and has exactly the same functionality as my physical 89, and I can even transfer programs between the two.
