These can vary greatly from country to country.

### 1/5 — No grams

*2021-08-05, version 2.1.5*

Not great

### 5/5 — Simple and straightforward, love it!

*2020-02-02, version 2.1.5*

One step, info in one page.  Exactly what I needed!

### 1/5 — Wrong Measurements...

*2019-05-12, version 2.1.5*

Says 1 cup is 8oz....isn’t 1 cup 4oz?  I’m not sure that’s why I needed the app...

### 3/5 — Cooking in fractions

*2018-11-23, version 2.1.5*

Hey can you add a fraction mode since most cooks and bakers use fractions. Otherwise we have to convert from decimals to fractions?   Thank you.

### 1/5 — Didn't work

*2013-09-09, version 1.3.1*

Needed to convert 16 oz US to Australian grams. No provision for this. So I entered 16 into fl oz, and I guess it converted, but as soon as I hid the keypad to view the answers, they all reset to zero...

### 1/5 — Pests

*2013-03-30, version 1.3.1*
