How does this work?
Clicking the “Test drive now” button launches a copy of this app on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), a web service that provides on-demand compute capacity in the cloud for developers. When you interact with the simulated phone using your mouse and keyboard, we send those inputs over the Internet to the app running on Amazon EC2 — just like your mobile device would send a finger tap to the app. Our servers then send the video and audio output from the app back to your computer. All this happens in real time, allowing you to explore the features of the app as if it were running on your mobile device.

5.0 out of 5 stars What is 4.167% of $27? April 12, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
Again I thought I had no use for this app, as I can do simple percentages in my head. (I have an M.S. in behavioral statistics.) However after reading the reviews and installing the app, I realize how helpful this will be to me. Following are the features I found most useful:
1. The presentation of the program is very clean, uncluttered. Nothing to distract me from the task.
2. The different calculations were presented in the language of use, rather than that of mathematics, rendering the decision process very easy.
3. The method of explanation helps one to determine which is the calculation needed, when it may be unclear from the situation.
4. While I know these equations, I, being human, make mistakes and forget details. A calculator does not.

A comment to those who advertise their prejudices and ignorance: many learning disabilities, but most specifically math learning disabilities, have been found to be biologically- based. This means that the area of the brain which performs mathematical functions is often somehow compromised or slightly abnormal. To disparage such people is more an indictment of yourself than an insult to them.
Some people need this app because the educational system failed them. I do not understand the need to insult a person who has been so mistreated as to receive a poor education. Such people who have downloaded this app clearly realize their deficiencies and have taken steps to lessen the impact of the injustices they have experienced. Rather than insults, I offer compliments to anyone who seeks to improve his/her accuracy in daily life.

the app does exactly what it says it does. it won't replace your stock calculator because it only does percentages... but it works well. and to those reviews that said where is the decimal point? IT'S ON THE RIGHT!!!

1.0 out of 5 stars A sad commentary on American education April 12, 2012
When I saw the title 'percent calculator (pro)' and saw that they normally charge $0.99 for the app I figured this has to do something special. Certainly its not just a glorified tip calculator? Low and behold.

Seriously! Percents! Really!

This developer knows exactly how to exploit the staggering ignorance of the typical product of the American education system. Well played sir.

I can't wait to see the sequel.

What's next.
