Description from store
AutoConvert converts units, time zones and currencies, when you select them on a webpage.
Selecting metric units (e.g. 16 km) converts them to the imperial units (e.g. 10 mi), and vice versa (10 inch to 25 cm).
Time zones are converted to the detected local time zone.
Supported currencies are converted to your home currencies.
Conversions are automattic, and appear in a corner of the page as soon as you select any text containing convertible units.
Alternatively, convert any values by using the text box in the extension popup (press the extension button in the toolbar).
A list of supported units, currencies and time zones is available here: https://updatenotes.blog/autoconvert-list-of-supported-units-time-zones-and-currencies/
** Currency conversion is a premium feature, and requires a purchase after the trial period. Please check if your currency is supported before purchasing.
* Converts up to 6 values in a selection. Unlimited conversions in popup.

- (2023-07-08) Channel: Can you add knots to km and meters? Thanks
- (2023-03-14) supe: Very useful, should be a native feature of chrome. Now that it is free it is by far the best conversion extension I have used.
- (2023-02-19) George: Great extension. Thank you for making all features free!
- (2023-01-16) Vlad: worked from the start, love stuff that just works!
- (2022-06-02) Markus Kühnel: How often was I in need of my phone or a web browser for converting units I usually don't use... I read about this extension in an article of a computer magazine. Idea great, extension works fast and reliable. Five stars!
- (2022-03-18) Anthony Jiang: Very helpful and works well for non-currency conversion. If you need currency conversion, you will have to pay for it with a reasonable price point. Reliable currency conversion APIs aren't for free and you are supporting the development of a reliable app.
- (2021-09-16) BeHold Estratégia: Useless, does nothing until you pay for. Don't waste your time.
- (2021-06-02) It's Me Karla: Does not work.
- (2021-01-22) Jan Grabowski: 10 day trial.
- (2021-01-19) Harald Simon: Unfortunately, it calculates unprecisely and claims 90 feet are 27m. But the correct result is 27.432m. The missing 43.2cm are 17". I'm sorry but this extension is useless if I cannot rely on.
- (2020-08-04) Yazeed: Useless. This extension does nothing.
- (2020-07-13) Alex Shats: It is not free.
- (2020-07-04) Immz: Interface is ugly, and arbitrarily selects one unit of conversion only.
- (2020-03-18) Joel Sapp: Very Good Tool I like this tool. Would be helpful for it to allow you to delete out some units that we'd prefer not to use. Volume in the US for casual uses does not use cubic inches. We hardly use yards for example, but if there was a list and you could remove ones not needed, it would be easier. Also, I'm guessing your shooting the best unit with the smallest number greater than zero. ie: feet versus 24 inches. 3 meters versus 300 cm?
- (2020-02-05) Superion: The whole point of the extension is behind a pay wall, you can't convert currency unless you pay. Don't bother downloading.
- (2019-10-01) Fusion “Zachrysia” Developer: Can change units. I don't want to convert Meters into "Thou" whatever the heck that is, I want to convert 8mm into inches and 8M into feet. This app doesn't do that.
- (2019-08-26) Jose Nogueira: after hours looking for a good one . i just found a great one !
- (2019-05-19) Dave Wulf: Aplicacion de PAGO mensual por convertir divisas.
- (2019-02-21) fabio puntillo: very convenient: just type any value and it makes the conversion
- (2019-01-28) Nguyen Pham: ok
- (2019-01-15) Anoir Ben Tanfous: Best
- (2018-10-11) Diego Gaus: Works great, a real time saver.
