iPhone Calculator Numbers Not Clearing

I am using an iPhone 14 Pro with iOS v. 18.0.1

Whenever I open the calculator up it has retained the numbers I entered into it when I did my first calculation with this new iOS. Even if I completely clear it, repeatedly (lots of "ACs") when I am finished with a calculation, the next time I open it up those same numbers appear in the calculation field and they need to be cleared before I can begin my new calculation.


Anyone else experiencing this?? Wondering if it is a bug or if I am not doing something right.

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 18

OK, One of the denizens in the Lounge was able to replicate the problem and find a solution. lobsterghost1 reports:


I deleted the calculator app from my phone, then reinstalled it and the issue no longer exists. So, we can suggest to people who are having this issue to delete the app, then reinstall it.

Thank you, L. Finch. But, of course I hit "AC" before closing the app.

As you haven’t posted in this thread before I had no idea what troubleshooting you had already done, and I didn’t want to jump to conclusions.


This is a perplexing problem, because I don’t have it, my wife doesn’t have it, and, asking among other regular users of the forum so far none of them have experienced it either. I don’t doubt that it happens, but none of us have found any commonality among users who experience it.
