Review summary

Soulver 3 is beloved for turning calculations into a lightweight, text-friendly notebook. It’s easy to learn, powerful, and excels at mixing notes with math, handling currency/time formats, and syncing across Mac, iPhone, and iPad with well-organized sheets. Users praise its long-standing reliability and one-time purchase price. However, frequent prompts to review or subscribe, pricing concerns, and issues with units, crashes, and licensing glitches are common complaints. Overall it remains a standout calculator/notebook with room for refinement.

Pros

Easy-to-use yet powerful calculator that lets you mix text and arithmetic
Folders and sheets let you save, organize, and quickly jump back to past calculations
Cross-device syncing across Mac, iPad, and iPhone with smooth continuity
Strong support for currency, time formats and other conversions with natural-language input
One-time purchase price (not a subscription) is appreciated by many users

Cons

Frequent prompts to review or upgrade, including AI subscription prompts
Perceived high cost and concerns about moving to a subscription model
Unit handling/expressions are weaker in Soulver 3 than Soulver 2
Stability issues such as crashes and OS/device recognition problems
Licensing/trial flows and occasional interface glitches like window resizing

2026-07-02	@T*****	One of the best tools on any of the platforms. Unique software that mimics what you do when working out numbers, take a notepad and elevate it with a computational engine. I have decades of experience with spreadsheets and Soulver has put them in their place, I have little math engines in there that work out aspect ratios, pricing and billing, tax returns, floor plans and more. Oh, and need to split a restaurant bill but someone didn’t drink any of the vino, that too. If you juggle figures, get this app.

2026-04-19	Ké*****	I love this software but it resizes the window at random for no reason whatsoever - annoying! I suspect it’s the syncing with the mobile version but not sure. In any case, it should not be happening!

2026-02-26	de*****	Soulver is an app that I don’t use all that much, but am delighted every time I do reach for it. It’s simple and deceptively powerful and a perfect way to jot down notes or calculation, or just to mix text and arithmetic.

2025-12-18	Ju*****	I love that I can write notes and save my calculations in folders. Much easier and more powerful to use than apple notes. I was hard to figure out how to do subtotals, but I was thrilled when I figured it out.

2025-12-14	on*****	Soulver keeps getting better, and it never leaves my home screen. It’s one of the first things I reach for on both iOS and Mac when I need to figure out any problem. I have dozens of sheets of past problems, each easy to jump back into, read, and edit. For math, time, dollar, and exchange rate type questions it’s better than Excel and better than Notes.
