Estimated revenue

A model estimate with a likely range, not a reported figure.

No estimate. Apps outside the grossing charts, and some countries, have no reliable rank-to-revenue curve, so we show nothing rather than a guess.

How this estimate is made

Rank: we take the app's best Top Grossing rank on the latest chart day. Category ranks are converted into an equivalent overall rank, because a #10 in Finance earns far less than a #10 overall.

Curve: that equivalent rank is read off a rank-to-revenue curve anchored on public company revenue and market-data reports for the US iPhone App Store.

Country: the curve is scaled per country (Japan is roughly a third of the US, Türkiye under 1%). Where we have no scale, such as China, there is no estimate.

Range: the likely range widens with country, category and chart depth. It is a plausible span, not a statistical confidence interval.

Not included: ads, payments outside the App Store, and any difference between gross sales and what the developer keeps. Low confidence means indirect data; medium means several independent sources agree.

About this app

Text from the App Store listing.

A calculator that doesn't erase what came before. Every entry leaves its own line, with a note beside it, and you can fix any number from half an hour ago: the whole tape recalculates itself.

It's the paper adding machine's model, not the pocket calculator's. Lines apply in order, top to bottom: 2 + 3 × 4 is 20.

THE TAPE

  • A note on every line, and text notes that separate blocks without entering the calculation.
  • Subtotals with "=", named results you can reuse further down, and lines you can leave out of the calculation without deleting them.
  • Percentages with calculator semantics: "+ 18 %" adds 18 % of the running total and shows the resolved amount beside it.
  • Exact decimal arithmetic throughout: 0.1 + 0.2 is exactly 0.3.

INPUT

  • Two typing orders: sign first, like a calculator, or sign last, like an adding machine.
  • Its own keypad with memory (M+ M− MC MR), a configurable tax key that starts at your country's VAT rate and a scientific panel of eleven functions.
  • Paste a list from Excel or Numbers: it understands 1,234.56 and 1.234,56, the trailing sign and tab-separated columns.
  • Hardware keyboard on iPad, with ⌘Z, ⌘F, ⌘C and ⌘V.

OUTPUT

  • Copy the total with one tap, or any figure from the line's menu.
  • Export to PDF, CSV and plain text. Print via AirPrint.

THE REST

  • Several tapes, with search across them and inside one.
  • Sync through your own iCloud and a 30-day trash.
  • A widget with the total, six languages, VoiceOver and its own text size.

NO SUBSCRIPTION
No subscription, no account, no sign-up. The app never goes online — not even for the exchange rate, which you set yourself. Your tapes live on your iPhone and in your iCloud, and on no server.

What’s new

Release notes for the latest version, as written by the developer.

v1.0.1
  • Fixing a line is faster: the first digit you type replaces the old number.
  • New “⋯” button while editing a line: leave it out of the total, duplicate or delete it without hunting for the menu.
  • The tax key starts at your country's rate and amounts show your currency.
  • The trash is now right in the list: bring a tape back with one tap.
  • More contrast, easier buttons, and better reading with large text and VoiceOver.
  • Pasting from Excel or Numbers now reads European numbers like “1 234,56” correctly.
