I bought my HP-21 shortly after i saw it in Machine Design magazine in 1976. From then on it became my constant companion until appx 1995 or so when it gave up the ghost and would no longer illuminate. Much later on I was overjoyed to find an e-version replica of my faithful pocket resource, though he was no longer needed after I retired from field work. Today I have switched to Android apps and regret that I cannot find a replica of this trusty device,,,,, and would like to ask IF THERE IS ONE (?) or one under development? All iOS products havre become too expensive and unreliable !

Many thanks for giving me the opportunity to use this RPN calculator. I bought my very first HP 21 C in 1972 when studying at Polytechnic School of Cameroon. 50 years later, I am still very happy and proud using RPN devices and programming Common LISP.

To me, the value of this app (and all the other RPN apps that I have) is the authenticity of them. Otherwise, there are a gazillion calculators with different sized displays out there with RPN. Instead of making the X view high visibility, why not enlarge the calculator itself to be full screen (even getting rid of the stack view optionally) Then I’ll go back to 5 stars again which otherwise this app absolutely deserves.
