Would you mind if I say that the stock calculator for Android OS just SUCKS!!! Would you??  I don’t think so because that’s the reality. Besides some basic arithmetic calculations it is not capable of doing anything.  On the other hand, iPhone calculator seems to be really advanced as compared to Android.  (Ahem..!!) But thank God there is Android Market where we can get Free apps to install on our Android phones.

RealCalc Scientific Calculator is such a FREE app you would like to install on your Android phone.  This RealCalc calculator is a fully featured scientific calculator with the following features:

  • Previous result history.
  • Unit conversions for distance, area, volume, mass, speed, time, pressure, energy, power, temperature and data sizes.
  • Powers, roots, logarithmic and exponential functions.
  • Percentage calculations.
  • Trigonometric functions in degrees, radians or gradients.
  • Hyperbolic functions.
  • Factorials, permutations and combinations.
  • Fixed-point, scientific and engineering notation display modes, with adjustable decimal places.
  • Hexadecimal, octal and binary modes with logical operator functions.
  • 10 memories with memory contents dialog for store and recall.
  • Optional RPN mode.
  • Optional haptic feedback and long-click support.
  • Comprehensive built-in help.

If you have ever used a scientific calculator during your school times, then you will see that it looks exactly the same thing.  Doesn’t it?  Only difference is that now you don’t have to carry two devices, you can just carry your Android phone in the class.

Let me know in comments if you use something better or the stock calculator that came pre-installed on your phone is good enough for you.  Feel free to share your views here and suggest other cool apps you use on your phone.
