The app is customizable to accommodate various preferences: in favorite units, and in how the units and values are displayed. Select a unit category to convert any combination of units within the category. You can select one of the favorite units on the top of the screen or double tap on any result cell to convert from that particular unit to all others. The values entered are converted to all the units available in this unit set and favorite units are shown on top of the list. You can use the number pad to change what value to convert. For many unit sets you can use this as a calculator: the equation in the calculator is evaluated in the background and the result is converted to all units available. Copying results: long-press the result row that you would like to copy. A box opens to copy the results to the clipboard. For the time-related unit sets, a single tap is sufficient because of the update in the numbers occurring every second.
