— DreadBalaur, pred enim mesecemEdit: also breaks StartPage layout for some reason. Author should have a github repo active so people can communicate on these issues more easily.
Advantage over the current most popular autoconverter: decimal separation uses "." instead of ",". Both are valid but international scientific writing uses "." - of course an option to customize the separator would be even better.
Current misgivings (without repeating other reviews): cannot do range (e.g., for 1.8-2.5 miles the result only converts 2.5 miles); the EU flag is fun but will get cluttered on page with a lot of converted units. Not to mention that it feels exclusionary when the rest of the world also use metric.

objavljeno ob pred 3 uramiCheers for the review. Yep it would be nice if it was smarter and could handle ranges. I don't have a github setup because I'm not really an "active" developer. The addon is "good enough" for me. RE: the EU flag - if you think of a more suitable emoji I can consider it 👍

- Ocenjeno z 3 od 5— Uporabnik Firefoxa 18515359, pred 10 meseciDoes not work if something is written like “28k miles”.
Also inches sometimes are written like “10"”, then it also does not work.
Mpgs are not translated correctly.

objavljeno ob pred 3 uramiCheers for the review! Yep the detection is quite basic - although we should really blame the Americans! Quotes and apostrophes are a whole can of worms unfortunately. Good news, I hope to release an update soon that fixes the MPG bug! - Ocenjeno z 5 od 5— Uporabnik Firefoxa 18900472, pred enim letomDoes the job well. Freedom units are translated to something that actually makes sense 🇪🇺

objavljeno ob pred 3 uramiCheers! Sorry, but a whitelist is out of scope at this stage. I see how it can be annoying tho! - Ocenjeno z 4 od 5— Martin, pred enim letomI really enjoy it, but would love for it to also include cups which is used a lot in recipes

objavljeno ob pred 3 uramiCheers, me too - I started looking into converting cups but so many recipes use awkward measurements like 3¾ which is hard to convert :( - Ocenjeno z 4 od 5— Anton, pred enim letomWorks great, the only thing missing are edge cases where a an imperial unit is given with only text, such as "ten pounds". With that feature it would be 5 stars.

objavljeno ob pred 3 uramiCheers. Yep I looked into this as well, tricky part is there's no way to tell if pounds refers to currency or weight. I'll keep thinking about it 👍 - Ocenjeno z 5 od 5— csicky, pred enim letomFinally! Countless times I wrote to the American websites asking to put normal units of measurement too. If the Internet is international it should be all the way. Instead of the damn cookie law the European Union should have dealt with this annoyance. Instead they added another with having to say ok all the time to that thing.
