Fastest way to convert units used in the kitchen. (Only 2 taps to convert 5 tablespoons to milliliters.) No more clumsy scrolling to pick the unit you want out of hundreds of choices. Its innovative input method allows you to enter values as fractions or decimals. Fast, easy, and flexible! Weighing ingredients instead of using spoons and cups is more accurate and easier, especially for things like honey and ketchup. The app makes the conversion to grams a breeze.
