Hi all, just posting an update to my previous Show HN, where I announced a side-project I worked on which was a (web version) of a multi-user, notepad style calculator: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31817997 After a couple of user requests (and having a good think about it) I decided to migrate the web UI to create a Mac and Windows desktop app. After using it a little bit, I feel this is a much better experience than the webapp, and reduces a lot of the friction if I wanted to run a few small calculations. You can find the download links below:…

A spent a few days designing and programming a calculator app that I thought would be intuitive and simple. It utilizes a single gesture control as well as shake detection. It's free for iPhone: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/numbrs/id517346105?mt=8 If you download it, let me know what you think.

I’ve always found that online calculators tend to have bad UIs, especially on mobile. Most of the calculator websites I’ve come across use outdated and inconvenient ways of inputting data, or they format the results in confusing ways. I’ve noticed that fraction calculators (especially mixed fractions) are terrible to use, even on desktop. I haven’t built one of those yet, but it’s something I’m planning to tackle soon. This is a project I’ve always wanted to work on, but I’m relatively new to this space. So far, I’ve created a collection of simple calculators focused on math and finance. I’d…

Hi HN, I am a solopreneur in the evenings and a software engineer during the day. In the past, I have created lots of calculators for my web projects and freelancing friends. These were pretty basic, but users always welcomed them. I also used currently available builders, but the problem was that they were either slow, broke on mobile devices, had nonsense page view limits, or were expensive. Some even ticked all those boxes. So I have decided to create my own, with a simple interface, and called it Creative Widgets (if it ever takes off, I plan to add more exciting stuff like charts, etc,…

Hey everyone! After running a public beta for Zenitizer over the last couple months, it is now officially available to download on the App Store: https://zenitizer.app/install My goal was to create a clean and simple (yet highly customizable) timer for "unguided meditations" (i.e. no spoken word content). The timer is customizable with a range of different bells and soothing background soundscapes. Regular interval bells remind the user to return their focus on the breath when thoughts drift off. You can save your favorite timer presets as "routines" and quickly play them via…
