Samsung Calculator covers basic sums on many phones, while Calculator Plus with History from Digitalchemy, LLC adds percentage, finance, date and conversion tools in a single app. It is free, rated 4.9 on Google Play from about 920.2 thousand ratings, and has over 50 million installs there. The app is distributed through Google Play only, and it needs Android 6.0 or newer.
First steps after install: history, memory and the widget
Start with the history and memory tools, since the description presents them as the core of the app. You can save earlier calculations, review them to double-check totals, and continue a long calculation later.
Next, add the calculator widget to the home screen so you can run quick sums without opening the full app. If you work on several budgets at once, try multi-window mode, which opens more than one calculator window side by side.
Percentages, tax, currency and date tools in one place
The app covers percentage and tax functions: sales discounts, tax-inclusive prices, tips, increases and decreases, profit margins and markups. A scientific mode adds parentheses, logarithms, exponentials and sin, cos and tan, which suits school homework and algebra.
The app also converts currencies and measurement units, and a days calculator counts the time between dates and works out age. Saved calculations can carry notes, which the developer links to expenses, tax records and budget plans. Digitalchemy has published the app since September 28, 2012, and version 8.1.10 was updated on October 27, 2026.
When DayCalcy, ClevCalc or Samsung Calculator may fit better
Calculator Plus with History is free but carries ads and offers in-app purchases, so anyone who wants a screen without interruptions may prefer another calculator.
For plain arithmetic, Samsung Calculator or Calculator may be enough. DayCalcy is worth a look if date math is your main task, while ClevCalc and NerdCalci are other all-in-one calculators to compare.
