Samsung Calculator app

Samsung A15 5g

Since update to UI 7 the calculator has a bug that places the cursor in front of a zero when opened. Thus keeping a zero behind the first number entered. 

Advice was to uninstall/reinstall which I did from Google Play Store, problem solved.

I then checked Galaxy Store and was told that there was an update for calculator that couldn't be automatically installed because the app was downloaded from Play Store. 

I duly manually installed it and hey presto the bug was back.

• Why is Samsung still issuing a bug-ridden update for a problem that has been reported for some considerable time?

Hi and Welcome.

Are you able to check what the app versions are from Google and Samsung store?

If the the Google version works for you then best uninstall again and install from Google playstore or vice versa and don't update until bug is fixed.

Also consider sending this as feedback via the Members App support Tab as that's the way to get the Dev's attention.

Have checked as you advised:

Google Play Store: version 12.4.00.9

Galaxy Store: version 12.4.00.11

As the earlier Play Store version doesn't have the cursor and zero bug, I'm wondering what bug it DOES have that prompted Samsumg to issue the update which apparently has replaced one bug with another.

I wouldn't know.

For the time being just stick to the version which works for you until both are updated to the same version and send that feedback.

Thanks for your input but I won't go through the motions of downloading another app to report feedback, I try to get rid of too much bloat.

There are enough posts/complaints online about the NEW IMPROVED UI 7 update including many about the calculator that developers must be aware of.

Thanks again.
