Love the app but not so sure if the force-touch-for-operations is the best idea. Really slows things down.
@marmelroy it's either that or buttons that are likely too tiny to touch reliably. Would be nice to have a different option, but don't think anything is available in the API.
To everyone complaining that the buttons are too small – I disagree. We took a similar approach with tizi Calc (calculator with designs to match your Watch – including an 80s watch calc theme :) and managed to offer a full regular calculator layout on the display.
The watch display is super accurate and our Watchkit lab testing showed us it could be done :)

@tapbot_paul I respect your work and I have loved everything you have done. Except for the time frame you take to bring a product out. Or Even to update the product. This is preventing me in buying some of the app from Tapbots. The best example is Tweetbot for Mac. WWDC 2015 is almost here, and we are yet to see any major update for Tweetbot for Mac since launch. $20 is an investment for an app, not a purchase.
Great to see that there is also a convert option in it. I used to use the Convertbot app from Tapbot, but that one was not updated for the iPhone 5+ screens.
After downloading I imediatly upgraded for 1.99 for the extra options.
The buttons are too small to tap, you should make them bigger like Cruncher does (the calculator app that is featured on the Apple Watch AppStore).
@tapbot_paul my next update has 2 buttons, like a UIStepper. And a 10 second timer to chose the next digit.

@tapbot_paul Answer busloads of questions about becoming the defacto calculator/converter standard app for Apple Watch. And telling us about the features that Calcbot will be gaining in the next couple of updates. :-)
