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.
It continues to be slow for me. Even after updating to iOS 11.0.2. It needs about a half-second after the last number before it will accept the add/subtract/divide/etc button. The new iOS definitely has a slow and unusable calculator.
It is because of the fancy animation effect, when I press the 10 + 9, it became 109 instead of 19 as plus sign takes too slow to get activated because of the animation. We don’t need animation for a calculator.
Try a simple Restart.
I have the same issue I restarted still same slow calculations... I think it’s just os11 and apple being sloppy I was a fan but throughout the years it’s been going dowbhill apple is not what it use to be .
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
I DEFINITELY AGREE WITH THIS!!!
It's super frustrating using the calculator because the buttons are very delayed after one formula.
Please fix this.
I thought 11.02 update would update this, but it didn't.
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.
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:

This issue first recieved widespread attention in the past few weeks and iOS 11.1 had already completed testing in preparation for yesterday's release.
In short, you have to give Apple's developers a chance to fix it, get the fix sent out for testing and release the fix; it won't happen overnight or even within a week.
i have a 5S model A1533. After upgrade to 11, calculator gives wrong answer. 365 times 5 is 9,125 by my apple calculator. And i thought it should be more like 1,825. It is consistent no matter how slow i go.
Issue occurred on IOS 11.0.0 beta 1 to official IOS 11.1.1(15B150)-iPhone 5s. The pre-install calculator app on IOS 11 has very long delay animation when taping on the math operations or equal sign. The delay is long enough that it doesn't recognize next taps by user. The purpose of the animation is to highlight buttons when tap on numbers. To solve this error, Apple should reduce animation time. Make it snappy Apple! I don't wanna use 15th century app!
Restart does not fix the problem. I downloaded a 3rd party calculator "The Calculator, and it works normally, like a calculator should. Disappointing that Apple tries to fix things that already work well, resulting in bad results.
This is not an issue just for older phones upgrading to IOS 11. I tried a friend's iPhone X, and the calculator is just as sluggish as my 6+. The issue is IOS 11 calculator is inherently sluggish. I have switched to a 3rd party calculator (lots of free ones available), and that solves the problem. But iPhone users should not have to do this to get around Apple design failures.
ok try later
Exactly. Make my calculator work. I don't care how it looks
After Upgrade iOS 11, iPhone 7 calculator slow response
