Golden Ratio Calculator++ 2026.1 →
Golden Ratio Calculator++ version 2026.1 is here!
I made Golden Ratio Calculator++ for one very specific moment: you are deep in a layout, canvas, frame or screen design, you know one side, and you just want the other number without stopping to do math. Type in width or height, pick a ratio, and the app gives you the matching value right away.
The rectangle preview updates as you go, the color shifts with the ratio, and the calculated value is copied to the clipboard automatically. Small thing. Surprisingly lovely when you do this often.
Features:
- Calculate width or height instantly from a chosen ratio
- Built-in presets: Golden, Silver, Bronze, Yamato, HD Video and Old Television
- Enter any custom ratio with the slider or direct input
- Live visual preview of the proportion you are working with
- Flip orientation with one tap
- Automatically copy the calculated result to the clipboard
- Choose between 0 and 5 decimal places
- Home Screen Quick Actions for Golden, Silver, Bronze and Yamato
- Spotlight search for the built-in named ratios
- Supports light and dark appearance
- Works on iPhone and iPad
Golden Ratio Calculator++ is the best and fastest way to easily incorporate the golden ratio in your layouts or designs!

Make Better Decisions This Year
Last christmas I wrote a couple of articles for Bekks advent calendar. This is an English translation for my Norwegian đłđ´ post titled Prøv OST før jul, enjoy!
âWould you like to write an article to be published on Christmas Eve, Runar?â âYes!â, I said. âFuture-Runar can handle anything.â But was that a good decision? Read on and judge for yourself. Anyway, use the method I talk about below and make better decisions than past-Runar did.
As humans, we make decisions and choices all the time. Most choices are simple, and a select few are actually important.
For the simple ones, we have quick techniques like subconscious, gut feeling, and mental shortcuts, mixed with a bit of good old âI donât care how it turns outâ and luck. Such choices can be made quickly, usually turn out just fine, and life goes on. Fortunately.
The distinction between important and unimportant choices is primarily that we actually care about the outcome, and the consequences are significant or hard to reverse. For these important decisions, we want an effect, but the path there can be complex and unclear.
So what is a good decision-making process for important choices?
Introducing the decision ladder! Or actually, a great book written by Jan-Ole Hesselberg and Reidunnn Lognvik Reinholdt called âBetter Decisionsâ. In the book, they describe just such a method for making better decisions. It doesnât have to take a long time, but it contains elements that are useful to include in the process to ensure that the decision is based on what you know, not what you think.
The rest of the article explains the method, and I start with a picture of the ladder (as a repetition for new readers):

In my article, How to Deal with AI as a Product Team, I explore the dynamic role of generative AI within product teams. I discuss how AI, like Large Language Models, can boost creativity and streamline tasks such as design and data analysis, while also highlighting the need to navigate challenges like data privacy and ethical considerations.
I emphasize a strategic approach for product development teams, stressing the importance of understanding user needs and integrating AI in a way that enriches the user experience. This article is a deep dive into finding that sweet spot where human creativity meets AI efficiency in product development. For a comprehensive understanding of how to skillfully integrate AI into product teams, read the full article here.
