Notepad Calculator

Notepad Calculator is a smart calculator disguised as a notepad. Instead of juggling a calculator app and a notes app, just write what you're thinking — every line is calculated instantly, right next to your words.

Write math the way you think

Type expressions in plain language and get answers on the same line:

500 + 200 * 3 → solved as you type, no equals button needed 10 km in miles, 5 feet 6 inches + 8 in today + 3 weeks, Jan 1 2025 to Mar 1 2025 tax = 15% then reuse price + tax anywhere below 8%, VAT, tip, subtotals and totals with #tag aggregation

Every answer becomes a variable you can reference later, so multi-step calculations stay readable.

Powerful, all offline

A fast local engine handles a huge range of math with no internet, accounts, or AI required:

Functions: sqrt, sin, cos, tan, log, ln, exp, abs, round, max, min, pow, and more Constants: pi, tau, phi, e Units & conversions: length, weight, volume, time, speed, temperature, electrical, and custom units Currency conversion with offline-cached exchange rates and a live "Update Rates" refresh Statistics, percentages, bases & bitwise (hex/binary/octal), trig in degrees or radians Chinese large-number support (万 / 亿) and spelled-out numbers (million, billion)
