After Upgrade iOS 11, iPhone 7 calculator slow response

Just upgrade my iPhone 7 to iOS 11, then found out using the calculator function it become slow and poor response. All the button become slow response, I can’t touch too fast on all the calculator button function, if not it will miss the touch and won’t recieve and no response.

I miss the old calculator, it function much more smoother.

Seriously? Did you try it by yourself before suggesting a restarting? And even a label "Apple recommended".. Oh boy...


The calculator app is absolutely rubbish now and I can't believe apple didn't see it before releasing code that feels so amateurish... Is the app for kids? Are we next going to see some fancy bling-blings and maybe fireworks? Maybe adding a notch for the app itself to look more stupid?


It's just an calculator app! How hard is it to get it and make it to work? No one need animations which only make the app unusable and users make only errors when using it.

It’s very disappointing I’ve been loyal to Apple for a very long time and throughout the years the devices are getting bigger, bulkier, slower, it’s like after jobs they’re going the opposite way .... very disappointed, especially the new OS.... even the iPhone X is most likely a let down... thinking about switching

Restart doesn't fix


I've repro'd this across 6 devices and friends have verified it too. Still happening after iOS 11.1 upgrade.


Repro is easy: Do any calculation with more than one operator, and type reasonably fast.

1x2x3 will give a result of 23. Every single time.


If you type really slow you'll get the right answer.


It looks like there is a transition animation on the buttons and the animation is blocking click events.


Here's my FB post a month ago, video of the issue in the comments:
