Highlights

  • Units now supports converting into lists of multiple units. You can now happily convert away into feets and inches, or hours, minutes and seconds, or whatever other combination of conforming units you desire. Belated thanks go to Roman Redziejowski for his original work on the Java version of Units which made this possible.
    • Some shorthands for common unit combinations are included, e.g. ftin for feet and inches, hms for hours, minutes and seconds, and time for that plus days and years as well. See the manual for more details.
  • You can round conversion results to whole numbers by adding two semicolons after the you want unit.
  • Support for Android 13's per-app language preferences
  • To avoid errors like Unit 'gallon' is unknown, the US versions of various English units are now defined everywhere by default, unless your language is set to English (United Kingdom). Where required, you can always explicitly request the respective country specific unit by prefixing it with "us" respectively "br", e.g. usgallon or brgallon. (The only exception is the acre, where the non-US version is defined as the intacre). Switching further countries other than the UK to use Imperial units by default is being planned for a future version (issue #8).

Highlights

  • Improve compatibility with modern Android versions
    • Google removed support for the legacy menu button in Android 10, so the app menu can now be accessed by long-pressing the Enter button instead
    • targetting Android 14 (API 34), so the app can be installed again regularly on Android 14 and Android should stop complaining about the app being too outdated
  • Unit category classifications now properly handle locale changes after the initial app installation (at the moment English, German and Italian unit categories are available – translation contributions are welcome)
  • Use Holo theme on Honeycomb and newer (almost 13 years late, but better late than never… 😀)
  • Add German translation
  • Add Spanish translation by ingfabby
  • Various minor improvements and fixes
  • Still compatible all the way to Android 1.6 (at least in theory, since none of the old ARM emulators wants to run on my computer, so in practice I can only test on Gingerbread/Android 2.3.3)
