Description
iSlideRuleHD is a fully configurable sliderule app supporting multiplication, sines, tangents, cosines, cotangents, roots, squares, logarithms, and hyperbolics.
There are nearly 100 different scales in iSlideRuleHD, including scales that support dimensional analysis. From the scales provided, 15 can be selected for the top and bottom rules, as well as the slide, in groups of 5 scales each. Double-tapping each rule selects the next group of 5 within the application. A two-finger pan left or right on the center slide allows viewing either the left or right index of the body.
The application supports all orientations, rotating the slide rule to take full advantage of the display, and has multiple color schemes to customize your slide rule to your favorite color. A single-finger swipe on the cursor up or down dynamically changes the color scheme.

Ratings and Reviews
Good App; small error
A fun rule to experiment with, given the multitude of scales you can set up. However, one thing I noticed is that the CIF scale is out of position relative to the other scales, whether it is on the slide or the stator, resulting in an error in calculations.
Developer Response ,
Thank you for pointing this error out. I will fix this in the next update.
And the update is now available in version 3.1.1. CIF and DIF scale offset error is corrected.
Works as described
The app basically works as described. I'm not a big fan of the "non-physical" behaviour of the cursor (it stays behind when you move the top and bottom rules); the user interface is non-intuitive, which is kind of strange for a slide rule.
There's a nudge feature that lets you fine-tune the slide position. Unfortunately, it seems to have a bug in landscape mode - you can only nudge in one direction.
