Components
Unit Converter Ultimate is an android versatile app meant or created for the conversion of units into several alternative units.
There are 15 elements available which can be used to convert into other multi-step process units, they are Area, Cooking, Currency, Digital storage, Energy, Fuel, Length, Mass, Power, Pressure, Speed, Temperature, Time, Torque, and Volume individually.
All these units comprise almost all the convertible sizes of units.
Formatting is used for setting of number of decimals, group seperator, and decimal seperator. Visual is another component to stwich theme.
Furthermore, There is a reshuffle button beneath the app which is intended to switch the base unit to quote and likewise.
These are the accessible features within the app, and I would love to see some enhancement and incorporation of new features in the app and specifically the conversion page.
Proposals
I want to propose the implementation of new function and enhancement in a section.
- Comprehensive converters or Multiple unit converter
- Pin favorite units to home widgets
Comprehensive converters or Multiple unit converters: This is a very nice feature that will enable conversion of all unit into all accessible units within the app. e.g.when converting Digital storage and a significant digit is processed the estimation of the digit will display automatically in all the available convertible units.
Pin Favorite unit to home widgets: This is another stunning feature that will allow users to select 1 or 2 unit to the home screen of the mobile for easy accessibility. The unit converter will be on the home screen, and there will be a capacity to unpin to put users on the control.
Mockups
Picture below shows the Illustration of multiple converter, using Digital storage as case study.
Pictorial illustration of how the home screen feature might look like if Implemented.
Benefits
Pragmatically, All the suggested features/enhancement will be of included preferred standpoint for users of the application.
Comprehensive converter: This will serve as a swift way to know the entire unit of any significant digit input in for conversation and to expand the scope.
Users will not have check one after the other to see the converted value of all units
Ability to utilize widget will serve as another smart wat to access the most used or favorite unit converter. Indeed, some user will not even open some of the available unit converters while some user will so much focus on using 2 or 3 functions day by day which this component will enable them to put those most used on the home widget for fast accessibility.
Another benefit of widget is that it will save time and resources, consume less ram, easy to use without having to open the app first and serve as a embedded fast remote control for the app.
These are the improvement I consider to be implemented into the app to ease usability and more functions for it users and prospective users.
