Description of App

Units is a really useful app that lets you easily convert from various units into lots of others.

Units can convert Area, Currency, Energy, Temperature, Time, Length, Weight, Speed, Pressure, Power, Volume & Data Storage.

Units can even help you find out exactly how much data storage you really get when buying computer peripherals, by converting "Literal" Gigabytes (as used on store boxes) into real Gigabytes. (eg. a 16GB iPhone has 14.9 Gigabytes of actual storage!)

As an added bonus, Units also has a built in ruler, for doing small, quick measurements when the need arrises.

Accessibility Comments

This app is fully accessible with VoiceOver.

It has a very simple interface that makes it easy to use with VoiceOver. The only minor issue is the inconsistency with which the decimal point is handled by VoiceOver. At times it is announced, but more commonly is not. In most cases you can tell where the decimal point is by the way that VoiceOver reads the number. However, there are instances where it is less obvious.

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads all page elements.

Button Labeling

All buttons are clearly labeled.

Usability

The app is fully accessible with VoiceOver, but the interface could be easier to navigate and use.

Very accessible

By Jessica Brown

I have been looking for an app like this for a long time. I have tried a bunch of others, but none would play nice with VoiceOver, so they all got deleted. So glad to have found this. I like it so much I want to pay to remove the adds, but I don't see that option. Does this app have a remove adds option and if so, how do I find it? Thank you.

Deleting Certain Conversions?

Does anyone know how I can delete certain conversion units that I will never need from the main list using VoiceOver?
