I'm a math educator and include mental calculating in my courses. When no one is watching, I use a calculator to multiply, even when I could have done it in my head.

I was so proud of being one of the fastest kids at mental math in school. I knew all the times tables up to 13 off by heart.

Now I am in university and use a calculator for 6x3.

The calculator app is probably the second or third most used app on my phone besides Chrome.
