Spyware?

Does’nt even open….I really think this is Spyware…I can’t delete it even!!! Very scary!!

Weird values

Basically works but what are Cubic Centimetres? ... ever hear of millilitres or centilitres...? It's like the one thing you're supposed to do, you didn't understand.

Worked for a while

But now it does nothing when I click on the icon. Although it says the app is open when I try to delete it. Nothing to be seen and can't find it.

totally useless

Never works

Installed it and did nothing

Installed on MBP M1 Sonoma 14.1 and the app did nothing. It did not appear on the top bar and it did not appear as an app window. Had to stop the process so I could delete it.

Can't enter fractions

When converting inches to milimeters, the app does not accept common fractions of an inch. eg: ⅜ inch cannot be entered.

Simplicity of use

The App does everything I need and is very easu tp use. Other apps are ovrelly complicated.

wacky

conversion is wrong for teaspoons to cup. There are exactly 48 teaspoons in a cup, this app says there are 48.6922 teaspoons in a cup. How do you get stuff like that wrong?

Fantastic little app

Love that its so easy to use.
Thank you so much for making it and sharing.

Works well

I was looking for a widget that worked like one I had used when Mac supported Dashboard, and this is it! Has everything I need, and is easy to use.

works great no problem with black

Change the apperance to auto or light in General in system preferences and your problem is fixed

Coversion is wrong fluid oz to liters

the decimal place is off

No negative numbers

Cannot type negative numbers into the app, which for temperature conversion is a problem. Otherwise it has basic functionality for making quick conversions straight form the menu bar which I like. I hope the developer keeps working out the bugs.

Response from developer

Hi Timo, Very sorry about that, thank you for letting me know. This has now been fixed in version 1.3.1. Kind regards, David

Simple Interface

An easy to use and non-invasive interface for conversions.

doesn't work

Runs but won't allow typing on Mojave. Overly complicated 3 pull down menu system for conversion... select type of unit, then from then to. So, assuming it does actually run on other versions of OS X, If you're looking for a simpler solution than typing 'XXcm to in' or '100cad to usd' into Google, this isn't it.

Text is black on charcoal :(

This would be very handy, and it seems to work fine at converting. But in OSX Big Sur, I'm getting black text on a charcoal background, and it makes the entire interface illegible.

Simple and works

Just what I wanted no B.*
Great work

wheres the currencies?

Got it to convert currency. It dones only one! USD to USD! Whats the point?

Deledted the app. No use. Cant say it converts currency if there is only one currency you can choose.

Cannot see anything

The app is in black and I cannot see anything that I type. If there's any way to change the look of the app, let me know, please.

PERFECT

It's Perfect, just like the version that I had on my old iMac(2007).. Appologies for my last comment. I was quite wrong. Just didn't spot the icon up in the menu bar.... (I obviously need new glasses!!!) Kind regards.
