Jae K (5-stars) I love it. This is the best convertor which I have been experienced
Mark J (5-stars) Appears to be the be-all end-all convertor I’ve been waiting for. Love the clean calculator look. Also loaded with most major conversion abilities. Can’t wait to buy and has a full version!
Vij S (5-stars) This looks really great! There are a lot of converters out their but this one looks like the best. Simple, customizable, and a built in calculator. Sweet! Addition of a currency converter is awesome. What about a language converter tooWould require a different scene though. Excellent work!

I really like both Convertor and Transit – Boston. But I’m having some problems with Convertor. 1. It only allows three digits to be entered for conversion, and no decimal values. 2. The calculator function doesn’t seem to work –at least I haven’t figured out how to invoke it. And it would be great to have some text instructions on the website. Same for Transit. (And for the bus routes, could you list their O-D titles as well as the numbers? Can favorites be defined for routes in addition to stops?
Keep up the good work–these are great. Well worth the cost.

Hello John,
to your questions:
1. I tested Convertor a few seconda ago (v 1.0.6) and I can enter 6-7 digits and decimals without problems in each Category/Unit. Could it be possible that you changed the “Number of Decimals” in the Preferences to something like 3 or 4?
To check this, go to the Preferences, there you’ll find the option.
2. We’ve built a simple calculator in Convertor, so no percentage and other calculation, just add,subtract, multiply and divide. To invoke it, simply type in a number, than e.g. the “add” button and after that the next number, hit the equals button and the result will be in the upper display.
For the instructions, we built a help system inside Convertor for the frequently asked questions (it’s in the AppMenu or also reachable via the Preferences) that we get from users.
To TrackMyTransit:
Since you’re the first to ask for text-instructions to TrackMyTransit, what should these instructions have included? The interface is built to be used really simple. Choose Bus or Train, select the route and choose your desired station you want information for. We take the O-D titles on our to-do list.
The route as a favorite options is not possible yet, but let me check how this could be implemented.
