    Can anyone suggest a good app for a calculator - along the lines of the BlackBerry 10 type.

    I use this multiple times on a daily basis, especially the converter, in particular, temperature, length, speed, area - and like how the BB10 calc always had this integrated in.

    I could always download a heap from google play, but thought I'd see if anyone has something decent along the above lines to recommend

    Thanks

    Hi,

    The simplest way is to use your Classic as a calculator... or go back to your Classic

    1st and foremost, I quickly disabled the stock calculator and installed Cyanogen's Calculator here https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...culator3&hl=en and the reason I mention this is because the app I have found to be the BEST calculator app on my Priv to serve as an ample replacement to BB10's calculator has one flaw for me and that is the fact that it takes a second to open and lacks the quick widget for those 'just a quick calculation' moments...

    This aside, when it comes to creating that BB10 calculator functionality in an Open Source, ad-free way, PalmCalc is the only app I found that completes me https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...palmcalc&hl=en

    It has is all.

    It may not be BB10 styled, but RealCalc has been a favourite in the Play store for many years.

    10000000+ downloads can't be bad.

    Previous in widget form and the app itself:

    The OP wanted unit conversions included... Does real Calc offer that?

    I see a Scientific version and a $3 version.

    The Scientific's interface is a bit complex to get to conversions, I think.

    Thanks for the replies, I've had a look at them, and I think the Palm Calc app seems to be pretty spot on.
