Learn CueCalc in minutes
Ten guided, step-by-step walkthroughs covering every mode and every tracker — with realistic screens for every step, matching the real app exactly.
Master the Standard Calculator
Open CueCalc
The app opens straight into Standard mode — the calculator you'll reach for every day, with the same clean layout shown here.
Type your expression
Full-width keys, instant haptic feedback, and true decimal precision — no binary floating-point rounding errors like a stock iOS calculator.
Use ± and %
Flip a sign or apply a percentage inline without retyping anything — the two tan keys next to Backspace.
Tap = for the result
Shown in an oversized, ultralight numeral with tight letter-spacing — designed to be read instantly, even from across the room.
Build your first Cue
Open Formula Studio
From the Cue Studio library, tap + in the top corner to start a new Cue.
Name your Cue
Give it a clear name like "VAT Invoice" and an optional subtitle to tell copies apart later (e.g. "Client A").
Write the formula
Type an expression using short variable names, e.g. gross / (1 + vat_rate%). Tap Extract Variables and CueCalc lists every symbol it found.
Set input types
Tap each variable to mark it as Number, Currency, or Percentage — this controls how the input field looks and formats.
Save and run
Tap Save. Your new Cue appears in the library, ready to run with one tap — no formula re-entry, ever again.
Log expenses with Spending Tracker
Open Spending Tracker
Find it in the Everyday category of the Cue Studio library — it's one of CueCalc's built-in Cues, ready to use immediately.
Enter the amount
Type what you spent using the normal currency keypad — same numbers, same feel as the calculator.
Pick a category
Tap a category chip — Groceries, Transport, Dining, and more — so every entry can be grouped and analysed later.
Review the Run Log
Open the report for a category breakdown table with totals and share %, spending insights (average per entry, peak day), and an optional monthly budget bar showing exactly how much you have left.
Settle a shared trip with Group Trip
Open Group Trip
Find it under Finance in the Cue Studio library — built to track shared expenses across a group.
Log each expense
Enter the amount, then fill in the Payer, Beneficiary, and Category text fields for that expense.
Repeat for every expense
Log every payment as it happens — dinners, taxis, the Airbnb deposit — each becomes its own entry in the trip's history.
Open the Settlement Plan
The report calculates every member's balance and shows the minimum number of payments needed to make everyone even — exactly who should pay whom, and how much.
Track a loan payoff with Loan Tracker
Set up your loan once
Open Loan Tracker under Finance and enter the original amount, annual interest rate, and scheduled monthly payment.
Log each payment
Every month, run the Cue and enter the amount you paid — that's the only input required going forward.
Watch the balance update
CueCalc rebuilds your full amortization schedule automatically — splitting each payment into principal and interest.
Set a Monthly reminder
Turn on a Monthly reminder in Formula Studio — CueCalc even recognizes a Cue named "Loan Tracker" and nudges you to align it with your due date.
Scan an equation with the AR Math Solver BETA
Open the AR Solver mode
Tap the camera icon from the mode switcher. Grant camera access the first time you use it — everything runs 100% on-device, nothing is uploaded.
Frame the equation
Hold your phone level and position the written or printed equation inside the on-screen frame.
Tap the shutter
This is a manual capture, not continuous live scanning — tap when the equation is framed to solve that single shot.
Review or edit
CueCalc solves it instantly. If anything was misread, tap Edit Expression to correct it before confirming the result.
Convert units with live rates
Switch to Converter mode
Tap the converter icon, then choose a category — Currency, Weight, Stocks, Length, Volume, and more.
Pick your units
Select the FROM and TO units from the dropdown pills — for Currency, live rates refresh automatically.
Type your value
Enter a number using the same numpad you already know — the converted amount updates live underneath.
Swap or refresh
Tap the refresh icon next to the timestamp for the latest rate, or use the swap control to flip FROM and TO instantly.
Run trig, logs & memory in Scientific mode
Switch to Scientific
Rotate your device to landscape, or tap the Sci toggle, to reveal the full function keypad — memory row on top, trig and logs below.
Pick DEG or RAD
Tap the angle-unit toggle. It applies instantly to sin, cos, and tan.
Reach powers & roots
Use x², x³, x₁ for general powers, √ and ³√ for roots, and 1/x for reciprocals.
Store a running total
Use M+ and M− to accumulate a value across multiple calculations, then MR to recall it anytime, or MC to clear it.
Build and simplify a fraction
Switch to Fractions mode
Tap the fractions icon from the mode switcher to reveal the stacked-entry keypad.
Enter the numerator
Type digits as usual, then tap the fraction bar key to move the cursor below the line.
Enter the denominator
Finish typing below the bar. The result renders as a true vertical fraction, not a slash — exactly like the real display.
Read the decimal & mixed form
The decimal equivalent shows underneath automatically — tap "mixed" to toggle a whole-number-plus-fraction display instead.
Plot and compare multiple equations PRO
Open Graph Plotter
Tap the graph icon, then tap + to type your first f(x) on the formula keyboard.
Add more equations
Repeat to plot several functions at once — each gets its own color-coded chip and curve on the same canvas.
Pan, zoom, and centre
Drag to pan across the XY axes, pinch to zoom, or tap the crosshair button to recentre on the origin.
Share or remove
Tap the share icon to export the graph as an image, or long-press any equation chip to remove its curve instantly.
Gestures & shortcuts
Small habits that make CueCalc faster every day.
Quick Access Bar
Assign Cues to Quick Access slots 1–6. Run your most-used templates without opening the full library.
Red Stop key
During a Cue run, the division key becomes a red Stop Cue button so you can halt execution instantly.
Double-tap clear
Double-tap the ⌫ backspace key for a rapid "Clear All" without reaching for the AC button.
Two-finger history swipe
Place two fingers on the display and drag left or right — your entire calculation history glides by in real time. Release to land on any past result.
Ask Siri
CueCalc supports Siri Shortcuts — "Calculate in CueCalc," "Convert Units in CueCalc," and "Open CueCalc" all work hands-free, no app launch needed.
