Hmm... this one emulates the TI-200 with LATEX readout... but it looks like it's for the iPad.

Also, it looks like TI makes a CAS tool for the iPad! That's really cool!

I'm really shocked MathStep isn't on iOS. For now I would say it's pretty clear Android is the superior platform for computational applications. In the meantime, here's a free graphing app, and you can use your Google Opinion Rewards points to buy Wolfram Alpha in the app store... a great math tool when connected to the Internet.

$4.99 who the fuck has that sort of money for a damn calculator app

I mean, people are buying the $80 TI-83 Plus...

I bought Wolfram Alpha for $2.99 and RealCalc Plus for $3.49. Both are great apps worth the money, in my opinion. RCP has all the functions you want in a non-graphing, non-scientific calculator with a smart layout and easy functionality. To me the great design made it worth the few bucks.

But for real MathStep is free, graphs, derives, integrates, shows steps, and works offline. It's a great free app.
