Fractions
It would be nice to be able to convert decimal to fractions, so I could convert let's say 1 1/2" to decimal in mm or in Inches and so that in the same time I can convert decimal inches to fractions in inches. Also it would be nice that you could override the exchange rate table. The application is very simple and nice to use so a 5 star is very well deserved.

Great for a lot of things!
As an American living in England, this is great for converting currencies, and going back and forth from the imperial measurements to the metric ones - even height and weight! (Yes, here's a female glad she can convert her weight with this app.) I am not sure whether more specific conversions are needed in this app, because different people will have different needs - right now, Converter isn't bloated, runs smoothly, and is really easy to use. If additions can be done while preserving the elegance of this app, that'd be great, but I'd rather have something that does common things Really Well than trying to do a lot of things and not doing so well at any of them x.x Thank you, Architechies!

Well-designed, but currency rates do not always update
The interface for this application is clean, simple and easy-to-use. It has all major types of conversions needed, e.g., length, weight, heat, and (ostensibly) currency rate. However, I have found that the currency rates often fail to update because the application can't "find" its server, regardless of the network that I'm on. Their technical support site merely says to try updating with a different network, which is not a good solution in most cases ... and, frankly, doesn't work the majority of the time. If their currency conversion utility had less bugs, I'd give this application 5 stars, but it's, at best, average for my needs.

Well-made!
I just updated Converter again--it seems like there is a new update every time I open the App Store. The developer(s) have proven to me that they take both the product and the user very serious. Keep up the great work!
Currency converter does not update
This is really a very nice and useful app. My biggest complaint is that the currency converter will not update and uses 68 day old data (69 tomorrow). I have deleted the app and re-downloaded it. Same thing. It seem the developer isn't keeping up with exchange rates. Normally I could care less. But last week I was out of the country and needed to know the exchange rate. This app let me down when I needed it. Version 1.7.1

Captain
I am a pilot and after I bought your app, I found out I was not able to cross covert ie. When buying jet fuel we order in weight (pounds, kilos ton metric tons-etc) but pay by volume (us gallons, imperial gallons, liters etc).
I need to order fuel in pounds/kilos and convert that amount to gallons/liters. Your app does not allow that. This is of no use to me in its current form. Please add a down load to allow for this cross converting. Thank you,

Suggestion
Interface is nice -- and a nice size. One anti-intuitive item is the arrow button that gets you the results you want. The developer must have struggled with this issue. It's function is like ENTER or GO and as such you expect it to be on the right. As it is, it looks like BACKSPACE andmost of us righties have to reach awkwardly across the screen to push it. Even though it takes you BACK to the previous screen layout where you can start a new query, the user is concerned at this point with getting an answer, moving FORWARD to the answer, not BACK to the question. I think a right facing arrow or GO on the right might work better.

Excellent interface
I really like the interface cuz it's large and easy to read and really easy to control and understand. If every developer used their common sense when desiging an app it would look like this. It covers all the usual units that an average folk would need. I've checked all the others up to date and no one comes close to the ease of use that this one does.
Nice job fellas.

Displaying fractions of units
Fractions of Feet are displayed in decimals. Would prefer feet & inches. Similarly, Stones should be displayed as stones, pounds & ounces. Otherwise, nice app.
Beautiful and easy to use
This has a beautiful interface and is super easy to use. I love that it handles currencies too, not just standard weights and measures.
Btw, when this first launched, I too had noticed the issue with Malysian Ringgit and reported the bug. It was fixed within a week. Appreciated their responsiveness. I have no reservations giving five stars!
Sept 24 update: I too preferred the original buttons! Looked cool! Was no need to change!
