iSlideRule
iSlideRule is a simple 12 viewable scale slide rule application, with the scales configurable via the "Settings" application on the iPhone™ or iPod® Touch devices from Apple, Inc. Currently, it is supported on the iPhone and iPod Touch, and will operate on the iPad.iSlideRule is available on the iTunes App Store. Go HERE to get it!
See the new weblog for more information on requirements, updates, and upcoming features of iSlideRule. I appreciate the support and feedback received. If you haven't already, please consider reviewing the application on Apple's App store as well, whether you like the app, or not. Feedback here, and there, is very much appreciated (both good and bad! I can't improve things if I don't know that they're "broken"! THANKS!!!)
Configurable Rules
Each of the three rules of the slide rule can have up to twelve unique scales configured for it, in groups of four scales at a time. Double-tapping the rules switches to the next group of four pre-configured scales; without moving the rule or slide. More information about configuring iSlideRule for use is available on the "Configuring iSlideRule" page.For a complete list of the scales currently supported by iSlideRule, visit the "Scales" page for iSlideRule.
