A friend showed me the "revolutionary" calculator in iOS 18. It can now show the full formula!

I was like... "This is the standard in Android since cupcake"

Do I remember right? Does anyone remember if in any point of the history of the Android aosp calculator behaved like a dumb calculator from the 80s? For reference, the calculator in iOS < 17 can show at most 10 digits and replaces the digits on screen at each press, for example, if you type 1+2=, first you see 1, then 2, then 3, with no history and no backspace. Even the calculator in Windows 3.1 has the backspace!

To be fair, there's always been backspace feature, it's just a swipe gesture, not a dedicated button

Wow, i tried it, it's like an Easter egg. Not only this swipe is nowhere mentioned in the UI, but it only works when applied over the digits, anywhere else on the screen makes a button press
