### 4/5 — You can delete files with this one..

*2013-04-02*

I bought this after I discovered that there is no way to delete files with 'Letter Opener'. A much more polished product.

### 4/5 — It works

*2011-11-15*

I don't use a lot but when I need it, it works!

### 4/5 — Excellent.

*2011-09-22*

Does exactly what it says it does, and does it well.

One suggestion for the developer: Don't make us tap twice to view documents via the "QuickLook" feature. There's PLENTY of room for a dedicated QuickLook button (perhaps with an eyeball icon?) to the left of the 3, existing action buttons.

(Minor quibble: Why is the question mark on the "About" button italicized? it looks odd and out of place.)

Thanks!

### 4/5 — Geht ganz gut

Completely non-functional.  Failed to open any file I tried to use it on. There is a free app which works perfectly.  Don't waste your $3 like I did.

This is just what I needed. Now it's easy to open windat files.

### 5/5 — It Works

*2013-08-13*

It worked just fine for me. Once the app extracts the files from winmail.dat, I had no problem viewing them in either Quick Look or Quickoffice. If I run into something, I'll update my review, but as for now, everything seems to be working as it should.

### 5/5 — Good App

*2011-11-13*

Converts Windat files easily and quick!!!  Worth the 1.99!  Doc to go is great as well!

### 5/5 — Excellent and useful program

*2010-12-18*

This app is great at what it does. If you've ever received an email with a .dat attachment and have never been able to open it, this app will do it for you. The developers are also very responsive to any issues. Thanks for an awesome app.
