Unit Converter by Kanasz Robert 1.2.0.0
Windows Phone users can opt for one of the numerous apps made specifically for such purposes and Unit Converter is one of them. Well equipped to handle several kinds of transformations, this tool ensures ease of use and accuracy for each of the calculation it carries out.
Cool looks and practical design
The app offers a pretty neat look, with a well-thought layout that makes it very easy for you to access to all the features and commands. Also, the navigation among the various sections and menus of the utility is done smoothly and without any delays or other similar glitches.
The units are neatly ordered inside the screens they belong to, so as to be very easy to read. However, once in a while, there is a quite perceptible nuisance that appears inside the application and that comes in the form of some flashing advertisement banners.
Complete fast conversions
In order to perform the operations the app is designed for you will have to select the two measurement units, but in order to do this you have to pick the category first. Once inside the proper area, you can go through the list of supported measurement units and choose the two that are of interest for you.
The currency list is also comprehensive and you can check out all the entries with ease by browsing the list that has them all lined up in alphabetical order. The next step is to input the value and the conversion will be done automatically, as you type.
An interesting and most welcomed feature is the ability to show the entire conversion list that includes all the measurement units from the selected category.
This means that you will be able to see the equivalent of the specified quantity expressed in every single unit, without having to carry out individual transformations.
Save favorites and configure units and categories
Unit Converter makes it possible for you to look for units in its database with the dedicated search engine and you can even choose conversion pairs and have them saved for later use by marking them as favorites.
The "Settings" area is place where you can make some adjustments for important parameters like the precision (expressed in up to 9 decimals) and the number format.
In case you want o have only a set of categories on display inside the main screen, from this section of the app you can choose ones that you want to leave out. The same is possible for the measurement units included in any of the categories of this utility.
