Oggi non vale la pena averlo, disinstallato! ### 1/5 — Subscription... *2021-05-20, version 2.2.3* You can’t do anything unless you pay money, which is basically the stupidest thing ever. Just put in an ad or two every 10 conversions, you’ll get plenty of money. ### 1/5 — Stay away from this shady developer *2021-05-16, version 2.2.3* Stay away from this app. Developer is a greedy crook that collected my money for lifetime access, but than quietly changed the business model to subscription without grandfathering paid customers in. Sadly, Apple aided this shady developer by allowing this to happen. Thankfully there is plenty of competition. Uninstalled without regrets. ### 1/5 — Poor *2021-04-28, version 2.2.3* Can’t convert something simple like kph to mph without subscribing/paying! 🙄 (oh, and lists mph as “mi/h”?? Like... what? The widely accepted term “miles per hour” changed to something different entirely. weird..) ### 1/5 — They went the way of a greedy money grab *2021-04-24* I originally paid the one time upgrade fee. Then, without warning they suddenly went to a monthly/yearly subscription fee without grandfathering in or even warning those who had already paid. So I paid for a lifetime service that they reneged on. A great app became a money grab and when you can’t trust the app maker to be straight or fair with you I can’t recommend anyone buying the app. Their word means nothing!!! ### 1/5 — Why this subscription?! *2021-04-01, version 2.2.3* This is very bad. I already purchased this app from App Store. So why happening this with users. We make purchase app for a good experience but thats very bad experience with apple store. Developers should be clear at first time when they upload this type of app in the store. I need full version of this app. ### 1/5 — Why did you get greedy? *2021-03-23, version 2.2.3* This was a great app. I showcased it to all the engineers I work with.Then I see that it it due for an update. Next thing I know, half the features of the app were locked, telling me to forfeit money every month to do some basic conversions in a handy app. Was a nice tool to have in your pocket. But the company got greedy. I’ll be deleting it. ### 1/5 — Subscription Rip-Off *2021-03-15, version 2.2.3* I bought this years ago and, for all intents and purposes, it’s a great app— UNTIL the greedy developers locked up the functionality for even paid users and moved, with out any warning, to a paid monthly/yearly subscription model, choosing not to grandfather previous purchasers into it. This is embarrassing and the developers should ashamed of themselves. DO NOT BUY THIS APP. ### 1/5 — Schade gibt bessere *2021-02-28, version 2.2.3* Es sind zwar extrem viele Kategorien, die man nicht wirklich braucht, Dich findet sich dann dahinter doch nicht alle Maßeinheiten, die man benötigt! Dafür wollen sie jetzt auch noch Geld haben und das regelmäßig als Abo! Das ist diese App nicht wert! Es gibt gleiche und bessere für umsonst bzw. Findet man die Umrechnungen inzwischen kostenfrei alle bei Bing, Google, etc. Finger weg! Schade ums Geld! ### 1/5 — Davvero scorretto *2021-02-20, version 2.2.3* L’app fa il suo dovere, ma non è corretto far pagare un canone mensile o annuale a chi ha già pagato l’app tempo fa. O ci pensavate dall’inizio oppure il canone lo fate pagare solo ai nuovi clienti. Chi l’ha già pagata è giusto che utilizzi l’app senza restrizioni. Davvero scorretto. This app works good, but it’s unfair to introduce a monthly or annual payment to those who already paid the app several months ago. If you want to introduce this new kind of payment you can do that for the new customers. Really really unfair. ### 2/5 — Дрянь *2021-02-15, version 2.2.3* Удаляю программу. Все заблокировано. ### 1/5 — War mal gut - wird gelöscht / will be deleted! Keine Empfehlung!!! *2021-02-13, version 2.2.3* Zuvor war es eine geniale App. Nun sind die Macher größenwahnsinnig geworden und wollen überteuertes ABO-Premium. Einmaliges Kaufen wäre vielleicht noch ok. Abo? Ohne mich! Da frage ich lieber in meinem Browser nach. Absolut keine Empfehlung! Finger weg!!! ### 2/5 — Oh dear *2021-02-06, version 2.2.3* Lots of conversions, even ones I would have never thought of. However, the Fisher Price-like organization doesn't help much find stuff fast, and tying such basic functionality to a subscription is a joke. ### 1/5 — I’ll keep it simple *2021-02-06* Those of us who were early adopters and paid for the app initially are the reason it still exists. In spite of the often buggy performance and glitches. The basic functionality was there, more or less. Now, those of us who paid for the app one day found ourselves locked out of most conversions - without warning. So, I won’t be giving more money to this developer. I’ll move on to another app, even if it cost more. If there isn’t a suitable replacement, I’ll Google it. Bad move Americos Technologies. ### 3/5 — Not a nice surprise:( *2021-02-05* I’ve been using this app for. years. Had a semester off due to covid and now my semester is back I go to use it today and bam. Charging a fee. Not a nice surprise. Especially now with covid times. I’m having enough trouble keeping students heads in the game. This was a go to I could use. Now I cannot and will not recommend a subscription app to my students. They can’t afford college as it is. Unhappy. ### 1/5 — Deleted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *2021-02-05, version 2.2.3* Subscription = Deleted!!! G.F.Y! ### 1/5 — Bye Bye👋 *2021-02-02, version 2.2.3* Bye Bye👋 this converter isn’t any better then any other free ones. A one time purchase might be doable but not a subscription by any means. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Absurd subscription model *2024-11-15, version 2.3* Used this app for years and it was something I used all the time whenever I needed to convert between units. Now the app has switched to an absurd subscription model, or a one-time purchase of £50(!!), to unlock all the different units. No thank you! Completely killed an otherwise great, simple app. ### 1/5 — Una estafa! *2023-07-04, version 2.3* Ya había pagado por esta app y ahora me toca pagar de nuevo por periodos de tiempo? Increíble! Deberían respetar a quienes compramos la app hace un tiempo. ### 1/5 — Greedy App - everything is paid now *2022-03-20, version 2.3* Everything is paid now. I’d say it’s worth it but a quick Google search is faster and has more options, and can show the equation. This app used to be good. Not worth it anymore ### 1/5 — Müll - Support reagiert nicht - abzocke *2022-02-07, version 2.3* Inappkauf verschwindet. Support reagiert nicht. Betrug. Das kann auch google, ohne Geld. ### 1/5 — Abo Seuche *2021-11-23, version 2.3* Wieder eine App bei der die Entwickler den Hals nicht voll kriegen. ### 1/5 — Früher Umsonst jetzt Paywall *2021-10-16, version 2.2.3* Ist keinen Cent Wert ### 1/5 — Konvoto *2021-09-24, version 2.2.3* The app is nothing special but what’s really special is all of a sudden your one time paid app which is supposed to be good is asking you to pay again with lock signs on all units, dishonest conduct stay away! ### 1/5 — Fraud *2021-09-07, version 2.2.3* I bought it long time ago and now they’re asking to get membership, I want my money back ### 1/5 — Subscription pricing model is unfortunate *2021-06-17, version 2.2.3* Nice stable static product. Conversions don’t really change much, pretty static world. Nice product for 5$ or maybe $10 one time. Maybe a $ or two a year under a subscription model. Unfortunately, a $ a month is about ten times what this APP is worth to me. ### 1/5 — Subscribe? *2021-06-09, version 2.2.3* Monthly subscription for a conversion app?!??! You’re friken nuts!! I could see a one time cost but this is ridiculous!! Especially wcially since I’ve told you about the calculator error issue and you still haven’t fixed it! No thanks ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Perfect mini conversion calculator *2023-12-13, version 2.3* Fast, simple, easy, no adds. Very simple to use on your phone while on the job. ### 5/5 — The best converter app around *2022-12-19* This is by far the best converting app available. Convert length, time, temp and things I didn’t even know existed. I love that it has a one time purchase option. It is very easy and intuitive to use and the interface is one of the best I have seen in an app. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to leave a review. We are delighted to hear that you find our app to be the best converter around and that it has exceeded your expectations. We are pleased that you appreciate the one-time purchase option and find the interface easy and intuitive to use. Thank you for your support and we hope you continue to enjoy using our app. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2021-02-18, version 2.2.3* Fast, easy to use, no problems. Worth the worth the price IMO. Good support too if you need. ### 5/5 — Restrizione *2020-11-05, version 2.1* App stupenda, ma quando l’ho scaricata non avevo restrizioni, ora non mi pare giusto che dovrei pagare x avere quel tipo di servizio. ### 5/5 — Love it but now a paid app *2020-10-30* I use this quite often but not often enough to rationalize a subscription. A one time fee would be justifiable for me. I’m just not going to update to this version. ### 5/5 — 2 changes please! :) *2020-10-07, version 1.9.1* Landscape mode and a widget please?? ### 5/5 — Great conversion app *2020-06-23, version 1.7.5* I don’t use this app every day but it’s certainly in my favourites folder. I use it most for length, weight and currencies conversion. ### 5/5 — Minimalistic UI *2020-04-04, version 1.7.5* The minimalistic UI you can find on any converter app. The app is very smooth and eye-friendly. ### 5/5 — Best& most useful! *2019-10-18, version 1.7.5* I need a conversion tool occasionally and Convuto is brilliant in its ease of use and covers everything. Perfection is rare, so I revel with a smile every time I use it. ### 5/5 — Fantastic. Beautiful. *2019-09-12, version 1.7.5* Two words. Love it and so easy to use. Thank you. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
