RPN-97 Pro version 7.5
Updated At: 2026-06-20
Changes: Version History • In the Card Manager ("Cards"), the green label fields of user cards may be edited in W/PRGM mode, with "Show Card Content" set to off.
• Improved support of Silicon Macs. 7.5 Apr 9 • In the Card Manager ("Cards"), quickly scroll to the program code for any user key. For HP program cards, tap the desired label letter A..E for LBL A..LBL E. Long-press for LBL a..LBL e. For user program cards, simply tap the desired green label field.
• Visual optimizations for iOS 26.
• Bug fix: Register arithmetic didn't work as expected when printer mode was set to TRACE or NORM (thanks, Wesley). 7.4 Mar 3 • Faster startup – no delay until the first button press is recognized after switching on. 7.3 05/11/2025 • In "Max" mode, results such as 9.99×10⁹⁹ now appear correctly rounded both in the display and on the printer for all decimal point settings, e.g. SCI DSP 1 (in contrast to the original HP-97).
• Certain calculations, e.g. 100⁷⁵, caused the app to crash. 7.2 03/09/2025 • In "Cards": Easier navigation to first, current, or last program step (tap "?" for details).
• Bug Fix: Entering a LBL command with a lower-case argument would be stored as GSB command. 7.1 11/04/2024 • Thousand separators are now supported in "High-Contrast Display Digits" mode.
• In addition to using the Settings, you can toggle "High-Contrast Display Digits" by tapping f, then double-tapping the display.
• Thousand separators may be toggled by tapping f, then triple-tapping the display.
• Swiping the card right slot opens the Card Manager.
• The default angular mode indicator DEG goes out after the selected pause length.
• Updated math functions supporting the OP SOLAR command. 7.0 07/07/2024 • If "Enhancements" are set to "Off", loading a blank card will display "Error" without altering the program memory, like on a real HP-97.
• Listing font changed from Courier to Menlo for better legibility.
• Improved reliability of Location Services. If the iPad doesn't support GPS, turn off "Precise Location" in Settings/Privacy & Security/Location Services/RPN-97 Pro for best results.
• Updated Extra Functions 22 and -22 ("Print Device Name" and "Print System Version") to reflect the current naming conventions.
• Replaced defective "HP-97 Owners's Handbook" on the website cuveesoft.ch
Bug Fix

Bug fixes:
• Pressing a user-defined label, say A, when the current instruction was LBL A - and with the program containing additional LBL A instructions - would execute the next LBL A instead of the current one.
• A multi-digit number beginning two steps after a skip decision would not be compressed into a single step by NUM CPRS.
• Rounding (RND) would sometimes not use the DSP setting when called from a program.

x≠0?
1
0
0
+
which would add 100 to x only if x was non-zero. 5.1 05/28/2019 • Improved TEXT Helper utility: enter any character by its number. Find any character using the built-in table.

• New function "Integration Accuracy":
Selects the accuracy of Numerical Integration.
See Extended Function -100 on cuveesoft.ch ("Extensions") for details.
Bug fixes:
• Papertape not showing underscore character in certain situations
• Minor issues relating to merging program cards 5.0 04/11/2019 • In addition to multi-digit inputs, negative single-digit inputs are now compressed by NUM CPRS, e.g. the two steps "3" "CHS" into a single step "-3".
• New function ln(x!): logarithm of factorial of any positive number
See Extra Function 152 on cuveesoft.ch ("Extensions") for details.
• Backstepping all input digits is not logged as CLX in TRACE mode anymore
