PoolMath ....Iphone app?

[oldguy70]

I have been using Poolcalculator looks to be the same as PoolMath? Does it make any difference?

Do any of these have an app for a Iphone? I found (PoolCalc - The Pool Calculator) which looks like it may be the ticket.

I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think that pool calc is updated anymore and poolmath has more current updates. I use Poolmath in a browser on my phone and tablet.

PoolMath has some updates, so I would recommend using it instead.

Thanks guys I will use PoolMath...

As a side note, I saved the webpage PoolMath to my Iphone home page and looks to work ok. The 'Now' inputs do not save, but both 'Now & Taget' save to the Target numbers...

I use poolmath most of the time, but as recent events can show, there's definitely value in having an app, since it works when TFP (or the internet in general) is down.

Or just save the PoolMath page locally on your computer ... remember those things ... they are like bigger than your phone and have a separate keyboard and monitor and sit on your desk

Yup got one of those. It works great as a coffee cup holder too....now all I need is a long enough extension cord so I can drag the boat-anchor out by the pool

Just make sure it is plugged into a GFCI outlet if you take it to the pool :lol:

If I save the page, will the formulas going on in the background come with it? I don't know what language it's coded in, some require back-end comms every time there's a calculation to make, making saving the page useless if TFP is down.

Yes the code will be saved with the page.
