Contact GlobeConvert Currency Units Support

This app is very well designed and easy to use. It allows you to convert currency and various units of measurement quickly and conveniently, and the interface is clean and intuitive. However, at some point in the last year or so (I don’t know when, exactly, because I didn’t use it for a while), it introduced video ads that interrupt you in the middle of entering a number and force you to watch 10-30 seconds of irritating, bandwidth-hungry garbage. In other circumstances I would be happy to pay a reasonable fee, say $2-10, to remove the ads, because it is a genuinely good app. But here, my only options are an overpriced monthly subscription ($4/mo for a glorified calculator) or an absolutely preposterous $99 to buy it permanently. This combination of ads and absurd prices led me to delete this app entirely, and I encourage anyone reading this to find something different; nothing this app offers is even close to worth the annoyance and/or expense it demands (even though the app itself is actually good for what it is).

Like many apps over the years, it looks like this one has fallen prey to big business advertising. You can do in app banner ads without having to take us away from the main reason we use the app. Typically the app would be used for a quick 30 second conversion. I do give it 2 stars because it has great functions. But you can literally have a good page open in Safari to do the same thing. Sadly after 4-5 years of using this app, I now need to drop it. The delivery method of ads have rendered basically useless. Oh well. Corporate greed strikes again.

This app used to be amazing. The design is still great. That’s why I’m giving it two stars. However, numerous values are now off, such as the US cup, fluid ounce, and some other volume measures, as well. I haven’t checked the non-volume measures, but I would be worried they might be off, too, which makes me not want to use this app until it is fixed, because I can’t trust the output values it gives me. Please fix this, and I will gladly come back to using this app. In the meantime, I’m going to have to find something else to use.
