Kitchen Converter 1.0.0.0

A useful app for performing various transformations among measurement units used in cooking
Trying to get the quantities right when trying out a new recipe or when improvising a fresh dish is pretty important, as ay person fond of cooking is surely aware. For this reason, keeping the measuring tools at hand is a must and some are even relying on virtual helpers for such purposes.

Kitchen Converter is one of the utilities that was designed to come in as a useful assistant for any Windows Phone user who needs a reliable companion that can make instant conversions among tablespoons, cups or teaspoons.

Unadorned but very efficient interface

This app was designed to offer quick access to the main functions it has in store and it manages to do this very well, thanks to a neatly organized layout.

On the other hand, the graphics are not too great, with some medium size icons of average quality inside, while the background is plain black, so overall its looks are pretty dull.

There are no delays or other kind of similar flaws when accessing the very short list of units included in Kitchen Converter, which means there will be no lost time in operating the app.

The results are shown promptly and are very easy to read, thanks to the generous size of the digits and also because the unappealing dark background serves its functional purpose perfectly as the text and numbers appear all in white.

Select the measurement unit and convert quantities

The utility is a breeze to work with, since all you have to do is pick one of the available units from the drop-down menu shown in the upper side of the screen and then input the amount to be converted.

Ready to carry out 3 different types of transformations, Kitchen Converter can be used to find out the equivalent for cups, teaspoons and tablespoons, covering the basic volumes used as reference in cooking.

The great thing about this application is that inside the main screen you will be able to see the results for all the above-mentioned measurement units each time, which means you will have to carry out a single conversion instead of 3 for the same quantity.

With this app you can carry out transformations that use fractions, so there are no limits in this respect and you can get pretty accurate results, especially considering the 2 decimal precision that is the application's default setting.

Bottom Line
Design / UI7
 

The appearance of this utility is fairly decent, not too appealing and leaning more towards the practical side, but it helps users get the job done in the end.

Function3
 

There are way to few measurement units inside and no extra options, so the very basic feature set lose a lot here.

Security10
 

Well-behaved and completely discreet while running, Kitchen Converter doesn't go anywhere near any system area for no good reason.

Battery6
 

The power usage is pretty high, so the stress on the battery becomes noticeable when the app is used for longer periods of time.

Price10
 

Everything inside this application is free to use and there are no nuisances in sight, so it has an excellent value overall.

Compatibility9
 

Those who want to try this app onto their handsets will have to install it onto a Windows Phone 8 or higher device.
