Texas Instruments, the No. 1 recommended brand of graphing calculators in the U.S., has optimized its most powerful Computer Algebra System (CAS) math engine for an all-in-one iPad app that makes teaching and learning math more engaging, meaningful and fun!ONE CAS APP. What’s New in Version 5.1To report issues and help us improve our apps, please email us at [email protected]. Introduced critical fixes for iPadOS 13. Introduced animated path plot to help visualize function, parametric and polar graphs as they are drawn in real time with automated and manual controls. Updated plot labels to display coefficient values.

Jan 13, 2016 59 thoughts on “ Finally, An Upgrade For The TI-86 ”. Calculator app for Android that isn’t just a TI-86 emulator, by all means please share. Li-ion hack with my two TI-Voyage 200, I.
It is now easy to explore direct connections between dynamic coefficients in equations and the graphs they represent. Enhanced points functionality. One can now quickly create dynamic points by coordinates defined by sliders or expressions. Added multiple tick-mark labels to create visual contexts that promote understanding. Introduced various bug fixes and security improvementsNote: Use this application with the full keyboard to input math expressions. The floating keyboard is not supported.
Aji Gote, Good functionality with poor interfaceIt would have been nice if the user interface was the same as the actual calculator, but for some bizarre reason, the developer chose to make something that bears absolutely no resemblance to the TI Nspire, or any other calculator for that matter. It pretty much uses a glorified iPad popup keyboard as the main input, which, to put it mildly, is very clumsy.
Since part of the purpose of this app is to be able to use and learn the calculator when you don’t have it with you, it makes no sense to have designed the app the way they did. What is really odd, is that the in PC version of this app the interface is almost exactly the same as the Nspire, so why they didn’t do that here is beyond me. Despite all that, It’s a powerful calculator and it’s great having a CAS on the iPad. Overall, it is a great tool despite the frustratingly awkward way you have to work with it. Slsommers, Perfect for tutoringI use this app to support my tutoring students that have nSpire CX calculators.
Sometimes they have trouble learning to zoom on their calculator & the iPad's pinch & drag mode makes resizing graphs much easier. Once they get it where they like how it looks, I have them copy the x-y settings so they learn more about their calculator. I just wish this had some more of the teacher features like the press-to-test mode so I didn't have to break out my real calculator to get them used to preparing for exams. A n y M o u s e, Incredibly difficult to figure outNot intuitive at all. Even after reading the 'manual' and multiple website help pages, I still can't figure this app out. I'm probably just too stupid to use it. The TI-83 and Voyage 200 both worked for me for years without any problems.
I've written many programs over the years for both of those calculators, and also for the Mathematica and Maple Windows applications. So when I bought the TI-Nspire app, I was expecting either a graphing calculator app (like the TI-83 or Voyage 200) or a math program (like Mathematica or a Maple). Unfortunately this app is neither. In fact, I'm still not sure what this app is.:-(.
