As usual, please report any bug you find on Launchpad, so we can fix them!
Since is since end of January I don’t write a post on calculator, I describe all the things we did, also if some of these features are available on the store since a while.
New features
Universal brackets
This is a feature by Bartosz: we don’t have anymore two buttons for brackets (one for ( and one for )), but now there is only one button. When you press it, it magically understand if you need a open or a close bracket. Seems incredible, but it works very well. Give it a try and if you find a case where it doesn’t work, please report it to us.
Clear formula
Now with long click on clear button you delete all the formula. Don’t waste your time anymore!
Editing calculation from history
You want to reuse a old calc you did? Just try to swipe left the calc ;-)
New design for keyboard
We have some new design specs: we will implement them after the release of actual reboot. Meanwhile, we changed the keyboard accordingly.
Empty state in favourite
We added an Empty state in favourite mode so now users know how to use that feature. I know it’s a bit confusing, we will improve it with new new design in next weeks.
Translations
Thanks to Ubuntu community the calculator now it’s available in a lot of languages. They’re amazing, work hard and we often forget them. So, this is my personal thanks for you all translators! We love you!
If you don’t have the app in your language, take a look to our translation page and help us :-)
Full changelog
Here the changelog with features we added. Missing revisions are translations.
