Soulver 3.16.2 for Mac
Soulver is a notepad calculator from Acqualia: you write everyday math in normal language on separate lines, and each line shows a live answer. It sits between a basic calculator and a spreadsheet—faster than Excel for quick “what if” work, clearer than Calculator for multi-step problems.
How it feels to use
Each sheet is like a note with numbers. You might type 20% of $899, March 12 + 3 weeks, or 10am New York to London and see results update as you edit. Previous lines can feed later ones (like a lightweight spreadsheet), and you can name values as variables. A running total at the bottom sums your work; headings and comments help you structure longer budgets or project estimates.
- Percentages, tips, and discounts in words, not cryptic key sequences
- 300+ unit conversions built in, plus live currency and crypto rates when online
- Date, time zone, and business-day math with public holidays for your region
- Cooking measures, video timecodes, compound interest, and mortgage-style functions
Sheets, sync, and Mac fit
Calculations live in sheets that save automatically. Turn on iCloud in sheetbook settings to sync with Soulver on iPad and iPhone. The Mac app is a one-time purchase (about $39 after a 30-day trial that does not auto-charge, per the store listing), requires macOS 13.5 or later, and is optimized for Apple Silicon and recent macOS releases according to the developer.
Optional in-app add-ons cover advanced stock tickers and related live data; core math works offline, while live rates need a network connection.
Version 3.16.2 in short
This build adds natural-language helpers for sunrise, sunset, and daylight hours by place, quarter-based date phrases such as next quarter, and superscript exponents like 100². It also fixes an edge case in one exponent calculation. If you used Soulver 2, you can import old files and enable iCloud to pair with the Mac edition.
