Why The iPad Doesn't Have A Calculator

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 พ.ค. 2024
- When the iPad was being created, a guy named Scott Forstall was leading its software development. He was responsible for the skeuomorphic interface featured early on in iOS, and the calculator app included with the iPad prototype was simply a scaled up version of the iPhone’s. The software team assumed the final product would ship with this calculator, but once Steve Jobs saw it one month before the iPad’s release, he met with Forstall right away. Saying, “where is the new design for the calculator? This looks awful" Forstall replied, "what new design? This is what we are shipping with.” Jobs said, "no, pull it. We can't ship that.” Although Forstall tried to convince Jobs to keep the calculator on iPad, he was given an ultimatum: Redesign the calculator’s user interface to make it look good on the iPad’s larger display, or it won’t be included. With the iPad’s release just weeks away, Forstall knew his team wouldn’t be able to create a new app from scratch, so the original iPad shipped without a calculator.

I don't use a calculator because it's "WAAW, so good". I use it because I need it.
Come on now you wont use some ugly ass calculator will you?
I ain’t touching that ugly thing. Moved it to the 9th page on its own.
Holy smokes. This is crazy. LOL
Seriously, as long as it works and has the required features why would I care what the calculator looks like
To be honest though, he has a point. If you just need a calculator app and don't care how it looks, you can always download it from the app store no problem. Apple wants every app they own to be well designed to the point where nobody bothers to download an inferior third party version. If you're going to do it, do it right.
Imagine being a trillion dollar company and yet can't design a goddamn calculator

Tim's anwer translated:
It hasn't been affecting sales so we have no reason to apply resources to completing it lol
Thank you!
Honestly still kind of a bullshit answer. I could design a simple calculator app on ios in less than a day, as a single person. I KNOW they have the surplus resources to do it
Thanks, I skipped the whole video find this comment
When they finally launch it, they will call it "The most innovative calculator ever"
and everyone would fucking love it I tell ya

Buy a samsung tablet it has calculator and good features 🤗
In fact they need to update the calculator app on iPhone as well. It's the worst calculator app on any phone
Lacks basic features like seeing calculation history

the calculator team is just traumatized and everytime they try to work on a new calculator design they get haunted by Steve Job's ghost telling them it's not good enough

Steve sounds like the kind of guy you'd use the "do nothing knob" on when doing music production.

A simple minimalistic calculator is better than no calculator at all. You can always update the app in the future...

You got that right ... and also weather
Weather exists but not calculator
Apple was being frugal 😂😂a billionaire company.
Imagine having a $5 billion dollar headquarters in charge of designing everything for the company and you can't figure out a calculator and weather app
That's kinda what Apple does.
lmaoooo
My work I do use my IPhone and company supplied IPad. Doing reports and inspections would be nice to just use One device for everything at once. The weather app could be a larger one from iOS 15. The standard calculator on the iPhone is fine to me. I only want simple. If scientific calculator is needed that should be a option directly from Apple.
Theres things that happen behind the scenes that we are not fond of. If it were that easy im pretty sure they wouldve done it long ago. But theres probably things that are stopping it.

Really?
The real answer: They’re embarrassed that they haven’t had a calculator app for a decade and don’t want to suddenly include it if it’s just a basic app cos they’ll get made fun of
@Jimmy Jr Colvin Then someone already set up the device for you and installed a third-party application. There is no native calculator app on iPadOS 14.6, which is the latest version.
You have to use Spotlight to do calculations. Just drag your finger down on your homescreen and enter in the calculations you want to do into the Spotlight search field.

not true, it’s an aesthetics thing i’m pretty sure
@@TysonMerzy they can't design an aesthetically pleasing calculator in a decade? no way lol

@@arridi Hahahaha
I love how the employee pretty much told the boss via creating a interface for him. Do it yourself if your so damn picky.
The boss was holding the app over the developers head to manipulate him. Jobs lived to fuck with people.
Yes this is what you do when your boss has no clue what he is doing and you just let him change some minor things that don't really matter just so that he thinks he has accompliced something.

iPads have the side stage thing for multitasking, make it open in that and just ship the iPhone version of the calculator. Not only do they have to do barely any redesign, it also acts as a tutorial for users in an "oh, I can do that" moment.
Scott Forstall made the iPhone software really nice, little details like the gears moving on the settings icon.
I'm still laughing at the fact that one of Jobs' employees got so fed up with his shit that he built an entire Bethesda Creation Kit so he could do it his damn self.

They actually made it as a joke at Steve’s expense. But they were surprised when Steve actually sat down and used it to perfect the calculator.
@@Ironworthstriking "perfect" yeah right

I am 100% positive that if iPad’s calculator app design looks exactly like the iPhone ones but adjusted slightly for the size, when using it no one would wonder even the slightest of whether it could look better.
Nobody cares about a damn calculator. It’s mind boggling that they think anyone would care or rather use a third party one littered with ads.

I agree. When I need a calculator it doesn’t have to be fabulous. Basically it just needs to be. On top of being it would be nice if it was readable and if the buttons were big enough. It’s not rocket science.
I've been using the IOS Copy and Paste for about a month now. Gotta say, the way I'm able to take something and put it somewhere else is truly revolutionary. I'm surprised Android hasn't caught on by now. /s

It'd be awesome if they made a calculator app that had handwriting recognition so you could write out complex equations or even graphs and have it decipher them.
This comment needs attention
Right? Like this would be the best calculator. Also, they could also add functions and features you get from graphing calculators.
Spotlight search can handle not so complex equations. For example: cos(30)*(100/5^2)*sqrt(4)*floor(10.5)*ceil(10.5). And you can use pencil to write an equations.
It’s called PhotoMath
This exists

Apple: we want to do it really well, or we won’t include it.
Apple: Check out the new Apple Map!
😂
Actually it was the main treason why Forstall was fired, so…
Check out this marvelous Podcast platform we "improved"
They fired Scott Forstall over that, and actually right now APple Maps has some distinct superiorities over Google Maps. The main problem of it is that it’s nowhere near close to having as much coverage as Google Maps. But that’s gonna improve every year and eventually Apple Maps will catch it, because Google seems to be resting on its laurels.

@@datinbin this is the actual reason which you explained.
apple is a son of a bitch company cos they can earn more by simply not including basic calculator by default and serving it from third party to earn marginal profit from them(epic store fucked apple for doing it), and when some third party developers develop something outstanding then they will simply buy it from them and tells in apple event that they developed this ground breaking feature as part of their useless R&D team achievement, what a shame apple.

I was torn between roasting apple, pure disbelief, and anger when she told me it didn't have one. I spent the next several months roasting the advertisement ridden calculator app every time I saw it
Mom: Start studying.
Son: Give me the ipad please. Wait, where is the calculator?
Mom:😳
Son:😶
I believe the story about Steve Jobs pulling the Calculator because it wasn’t up to his standards. But why would Apple continue to be so obsessed with an amazing calculator in 2021 when they have heaps of apps that are less than groundbreaking? Is the Notes app amazing? It’s simple and functional. That’s all a calculator needs to be.
Don’t let Apple know, otherwise they will pull the Notes app to until they can make it “amazing”.
well you can use the apple pen to write in notes
@@barrettross3772 which will take roughly 100 years.
@@ianarchibald7928 notability is way better
Yeah, the third-party notebook app goodnotes (which I use for college) is basically what the ipados version of notes should’ve evolved into when they made the apple pencil. If they kept notes mediocre then why not do the same for a built-in calc app?
I am totally sure that the calculator Steve Jobs designed was exactly the same as a version a designer had already submitted to him
It does resemble the designer's. But if you look closely it is actually different. Pay attention to the visual effects on Jobs Calc. It has smaller gaps between the pattern, when he zoom out, leaving a stronger gray that resembles a bold color of gray. And the buttons has a longer shadow. Sometimes things looks similar but it actually leaves a different perspective.
Note : I am not Apple user but I appreciate their philosophy of perfection, while I think they prefer to leave them out since software developers will just fill in the gaps with temporary solutions in the meantime anyway 😂😂😂
or even worse lmfao
@@K4mu1z They are literally the exact same in the video. Obviously in the video they used the same image for demonstration purposes, but nobody knows what the original design looked like. Stop trying to make everything more complicated than it needs to be.
No, they look similar, very very similar. But it has a very slight difference in color. I went back and forth to compare them.
@@K4mu1z Colour? They're literally black and white.
The calculator didn't fit his standards, but a computer without a cooler did
I don’t need “WOW” for a calculator or weather app. I need functional and convenient.
Lol, that answer by Craig felt like he had no good answer and it was just a load of jargon to get around it, in all honesty.
I can't believe I had to scroll down so much to find someone with some common sense
@@johnwilburn4445 Just felt like Apple jargon... I don't know. You can tell he hesitated. To each their own, I don't really care, lol. I wrote my own calculator app which does all I need it to without ads.
@Galavant No, I didn't put it on the app store because it costs money to. I can push it out to GitHub if you want to build it yourself.
He'd be a great politician. Saying a lot without actually saying anything useful.
Obviously lmao. They aren't gonna have a good answer for something like that, and a LOT of interviews with big companies are either an advertisement or just a load of random garbage to deflect from questions they don't wanna answer.
