Very Handy Utility May 18, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a handy little program that quickly calculates basic conversion functions, and I have used it to check some 6th grade math homework as I certainly don't remember how to do the volume calculations!

It's a pretty simple process - you start with the "From" unit of measurement, such as volume, and type in your base starting point. Then you change what you are trying to convert "to" and your Kindle immediately spits out the answer.

About the only drawback to me is you have to use the "A" or "J" keys to change the conversion type - such as length - and the S, K, D, or L keys to change the "from" or "to" parameters; I had to write those hints down until I had performed about two dozen calculations and didn't have to refer to it again. That does not take away from the program, but is more an inherent limitation in the Kindle's keyboard.

Overall, this is a great utility!

Converter Limitations May 29, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase
I purchased this product today and it seems quite easy to use, however, one of the first things I attempted to do was convert a negative temperature fahrenheit to celsius. I could find no way to enter a negative number. I contacted the creator, 7 Dragons, and was told that negative numbers are not supported. No big deal, a minor limitation for what seems to be a well valued product (99cents).

This is just right for me. Every once in a while, I need to convert centimeters to inches, or fiddle with recipes or sewing dimensions. Not only does this do the trick, but (like NotePad), it is quick, easy, and intuitive.

First of all, if you want a converter that can do technically everything possible on a converter, look no further. The rating that some people give should not be a mislead. Read more
