This app has been put together by the master developers over at Hewlett Packard as a celebratory 30th Anniversary Edition, so you can definitely see that a lot of attention has been paid to its inception.

Perfectionists Beware!

The developers behind Hewlett Packard 12C Financial Calculator have stayed more or less true to the layout, functions, and features of the original 12C calculator, although I would recommend seeing the Pros & Cons section because one user on the iTunes description page seems to disagree somewhat.

All in all, I think you’re going to be very happy with this app; it might not be best suited to absolute purists who are used to using the original calculator but I would still recommend giving it your consideration.

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Experience the full functionality of the 12C financial calculator on your iOS device
  • Compiled by master developers at Hewlett Packard as a 30th Anniversary Edition
  • Developers have stayed true to the layout, functions, and features of the original 12C calculator
  • Quickly and easily calculate loan payments, Time Value of Money, NPV, IRR, cash flows, bonds, and loads more
  • Provides full support for RPN entry
  • Enjoy full customer support courtesy of HP

Cons

  • There has been one complaint from a user regarding the overall appearance of this app: “For those of us who grew up using the 12C in business school, and later in business, this is a perfect app. The frustrating part so is that it does not look exactly like the one we've all used. The color is different, the font of the numbers is different, etc. 
    There were two other knockoffs that did a terrific job which I used because they both looked exactly like the 12C physical calculator that I had and still use. But they disappeared from the App Store, and my assumption is that HP shut them down.

 

Final Words

Hewlett Packard 12C Financial Calculator may or may not be an entirely true-to-life port of the original calculator, but I still think it’s a fantastic iPhone and iPad app and I can’t find a single bad word to say about it!
