Hey Thomas,

There is Chinese Yuan. You just need to enable it in the settings.

Great app but I was shocked to find there is no conversion to the Chinese Yuan! That was a primary purposes of getting this app. Is there a work around or update that will take care of this limitation?

Thanks

The conversion of data units are wrong. Ex. 1MB is not 1000KB, but 1024KB.

First: Great app.

One thing that did feel a little off about the wheel UI, is that it doesn’t have the “flick” feeling common to many iPhone app interactions. That is, I kept wanting the wheel to continue spinning, and to gradually decelerate, after I lifted my finger.

It would also be nice to have weight/force units in addition to mass units (lb N for example).

@Hani & @Jacob that’ll be in 1.1

@Jacob that’ll be in 1.0.1

@andy we’ll think about that but not sure if it fits with our current UI.

hi, Another great bot. Any chance a future update could convert fraction inches (5″ 1/4 ‘etc) to other decimal measurements?
keep up the good work.

Great app. The design is exceptional. On the currency section is there any plan to add the Chinese Yuan. Considering China is a major economic power it seems strange it has not been added when Mexico has (no offense Mexico :) ). Plus I am moving there and really enjoy using ConvertBot so an update would be great. Thanks.

I have Weightbot and want to buy Convertbot, but I have an existing converter app that includes computer memory conversion! Aaargh! I can’t believe you left that out . . . c’mon guys!

I’d love to have user defined currencies as well. I just bought the app (and bought Weightbot previously) and would love to have the Bahraini Dinar as a curreny (BHD).
