This is a great unit conversion app 
I especially like the clickwheel ui and cool sounds which complement with it

Got it from the iTunes (Canada) store for free. Searched for Tapbots and 'Get App' was the option. Might even have to check out your weight-tracking app too... thanks for the heads up about this one!
In anticipation of Convertbot 1.4, we've decided to offer the current version for free for a very short time. If you haven't already, grab it while you can! (the updated price will take a few hours to propagate on Apple's servers)
Here's the store link:

And to learn more about the app:

All we ask is that you give it a review on iTunes.
Thanks!!!
So...while I wait for it to download over GPRS I'm going to say that it's very very pretty from the screenshots. But how does it compare with [app]Equivalence[/app] in the conversion side of things?
EDIT: finished. and it is indeed very nice, although a little weird to start off with (declined to watch demo). I like the UI scheme though. Will post review momentarily.

Why are you offering it for free now?
What's the catch once 1.4 arrives?
Will it be ad-supported?
Will we have to buy 1.4 in order to receive future updates?

No catch. Just a form of marketing. The more people that know about our app, the more chance of them telling friends to get it. Losing a day of sales is worth all the talk about our app.
1.4 is a free update regardless of whether you bought it or got it free and there will be no ads.No catch. Just a form of marketing. The more people that know about our app, the more chance of them telling friends to get it. Losing a day of sales is worth all the talk about our app.
Honestly i was skeptic about your app. I though it was just another tip calculator thingy with limited convertion.
Got it
Just got it... thanks
those that are complaining it is not as good as other apps... it's free! that makes it better than the other apps that cost...

The catch is that they want you to review the app. Doesn't mean you have to....but, you 'should'. That's why they did it (nothing wrong with that).
Be sure to really check the app out. There's more than just a pretty bot there.
I'm liking the app, graphics, animations and everything about it. Definitely not just a bunch of number crunching.....
Review given (as mentioned above). Thank you!
Great app!
To the developers,
I personally think this app is beautiful and one of the best and most unique uses of implementation of an interface on the iPhone that is available in the app store.
As a graphic designer, I can appreciate all the effort that was put into this. The design is simple, clean, and very polished.
For me, it's more conversion than I would really ever use or even know, but I love all the options that are built in, especially, the Typography one with points, picas, inches, etc. Was not expecting to find those listed.
Very well done! thank you for listing it as a free download. I will add this review to iTunes.

I dunno, for a $2.00 app you sure have a lot of questions that imply he's trying to swindle us. I have the app by way of redeeming a code the other day and I can say that it is quite good.

Thank you for your response. I will be sure to leave the app a review once I try it out. Cheers!
What's your deal?
What, I'm not allowed to ask what the dev's intentions are just because it's a $2 app? I asked a lot of questions? is there a question limit? I don't think that I asked anything in a disrespectful way. I wasn't implying anything. My questions were short and to the point.... sorry for not asking them in a more poetic way.
BTW, I had no idea what they normally charge for it......
This is a great unit conversion app
+1...very cool GUI...nice app...I will give a nice review...thank you!

I like this app, nice job. I would probably buy more apps if there was a trial period of 4-7 days, think that will ever happen?
