Did you know your iPhones calculator has a history feature?
Great, another trail of receipts proving I'm bad at math.
Look, I'm out here stressing about my Spotify Wrapped, and there's another damning trail of user-behavior evidence lurking on my phone: my distinct lack of mathematical ability.
In case you hadn't stared directly at the corner of the Calculator app, you might be surprised to learn there's a History feature. Introduced with iOS 18 in 2024, the feature might have gone under the radar for most.
Perhaps the tool would be useful for those needing to refer to their previous sums for budget reasons or their calculations for deeper research. But as content creators Jess Walton and Sammy Day have proved, the feature is deeply effective for absolutely roasting the people you love.
SEE ALSO: Why Jordan Klepper thinks we're living in "dumb McCarthyism"I checked my Calculator History and found I'd asked technology to do very basic sums for me, and, reader, I'm a busy person. I left math behind in high school, and I'm deeply unmotivated to learn it again on Duolingo. But I can appreciate your complete permission to roast me for asking an app what 20 divided by 5 is. I was in a hurry.
