Good iPhone Calculator Apps: Graphs & More

In summary, there are several good calculator apps available for iPhone, such as MathStudio, TI-89 Titanium, TI-nSpire CX CAS, and HP-50. However, some users prefer using the i41CX app for its RPN calculation or the WolframAlpha app for its unmatched capabilities. These apps may not be allowed on tests due to the potential for cheating, but they can be useful for personal use.

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. My TI-83+ I've had since 1997 took a blow to the screen somehow (I think -- hard to describe what's going on with it) so I'm looking for a replacement and might just get MathStudio for my Android phone. 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)
