If you’ve been following this blog, you know we believe in tools that actually make your life easier not ones that make you feel like you need a PhD to use them. Today, I’m excited to share something I’ve been working on: our very own Simple Plus-Minus Calculator.

And yes, it does exactly what it says on the tin.

Let's be real for a second. The internet is flooded with calculators. Scientific ones with buttons you've never touched. Financial ones that ask for your life story. Graphing calculators that look like they belong on a spaceship.

But sometimes? You just want to add up your grocery bill. Or subtract the discount from your shopping cart. Or quickly check if you're within budget for the month.

That's it. No bells. No whistles. Just numbers.

So we built exactly that.

You might notice there are a few extra buttons: ×, ÷, %, and C.

I included them because, well, sometimes you need to multiply or divide too. But the soul of this calculator is still the plus and minus. Those are the buttons you'll use 90% of the time, and they're right there, front and center, in bold blue.

The C button clears everything in one tap. The ⌫ button deletes one digit at a time. And the % button? Perfect for quick discounts or tips.

But don't worry none of these extra features get in your way. They just quietly sit there, ready when you need them.
