I find it really annoying that I can no longer hold the backspace button to clear the screen. Instead, I have to use a long reach to hit the AC button. Every time I use this app I intuitively hold the backspace button only for it to delete a single character upon release. I then have to correct and hit the AC button, which turns one intuitive action into two frustrating actions. Every. Single. Time. Why can't the backspace also be used as AC like before?

This calculator was as reliable as an old school one, but the most recent update made arbitrary changes. Most notably, the Clear button was eliminated and the backspace was moved. This is constantly frustrating and interrupts my workflow. Why change something that is perfectly functional for the sake of being "fresh"? I just need the calc app to be a calculator. That's it. Still is functional enough, but annoying all the same.

Was the best calculator app I've ever used up until about a week ago, when the update drastically changed the visuals and moved controls around. Now you can't simply swipe from the right to get scientific calculator functions, you have to click a little down arrow. Brackets are automatic, which functions, but is more confusing. Overall, the update made it much less intuitive.
