Help for the Calcwick app
Type anything on one line: sums, percentages, tips and splits, unit conversions, currency, dates and countdowns, loan and interest estimates. Calcwick answers on a paper tape and shows how it read your words, so a misreading is easy to spot. Tap a line to see the reading, copy the answer, make a share card or save a favourite conversion.
Open the Tape tab and type, or tap one of the examples on the first screen. Press Return to add the line. Tap a line on the tape to edit it in place; the answers update. Favourites keeps conversions you use often, Library holds variables (for example rent = 1450), pinned lines, a cookbook of ready phrases and a unit browser, and History keeps cleared tapes.
Check the reading under the line. Numbers follow your region: 1,5 and 1.5 are read by your decimal separator, dates by your calendar, and cups, gallons and tablespoons by your region's sizes. If a word is not understood, Calcwick suggests the closest unit. Calculations are for convenience; check important figures such as loans, tax and medicine doses yourself.
Rates are the European Central Bank daily reference rates, shown with their date next to each result. Open More, then Refresh rates, to fetch the latest set. The app also works offline with the saved set.
Long-press the Home Screen, tap +, choose Calcwick and add Favourite conversions. The widget shows the favourites you saved in the app.
