Golden Ratio is a free and open-source (FOSS) Android calculator designed to help you calculate proportional values based on the Golden Ratio. Whether you're a designer, mathematician, or just curious about the ancient Greek concept of harmonic proportions, this app makes the process easy and intuitive.
I made this app for 3 reasons:
- This was a great way to practice and deepen my understanding of Kotlin and Android development.
- I couldn't find any Android apps that offered this exact functionality, so I decided to make one.
- The Golden Ratio has been used since ancient times in art, architecture, and design to create aesthetically pleasing proportions. This app simplifies the calculation process for anyone who wants to use it.
- Use Droidify, then search for "Golden Ratio" and install it.
- Add IzzyOnDroid repository to F-Droid, then search for "Golden Ratio" and install it.
- Download the APK file directly from the releases page.
Golden Ratio isn't just a basic A+B calculator; it intelligently fills in missing values based on the Golden Ratio. It can compute:
- A and B based on the sum value.
- A and Sum based on the B value.
- B and Sum based on the A value.
- Enter exactly one value:
A
,B
, orSum
. - The app will automatically calculate the missing 2 values using the Golden Ratio (and basic math).
- Click "calculate" to calculate, and click it again to clear the inputs.
- Click "Clear" to reset only the history.
