Description

The famous Cook's Convertor is the most important kitchen convertor and timer App that any cooking enthusiast needs!  

The Cook's Convertor is designed and tested for real-life by real cooks. It is one of the easiest, fastest, and most powerful cooking conversion utility available for iOS. It does just what it says, does it simply, and does it well. We concentrate on features that cooks really need; no bloatware.

Cook's Convertor works on iPhones and iPad screens of any size, giving two side-by-side convertors or kitchen timers of your choice on the iPad. It will also work with Apple's slide-over feature so you can display webpages or your favourite recipes or other apps side-by-side with the convertor for extra convenience.

The Free version contains all these features:

1) Converts common volume, weight and temperature measures used in cooking.
2) Works with regional U.S. Imperial, U.K. Imperial and Metric measures.
3) Volume measurements Cups, Tablespoons, Teaspoons, Fluid Ounces, Litres, Millilitres, Pints, Quarts, Gallons.
4) Weight measurements Ounces, Pounds, Grams and Kilograms.
5) Temperature measurements Fahrenheit, Celsius and Gasmark for those old recipes!
6) Standing times for common roasted meats.
7) Includes length for good measure....pun not intended..;)
8) Flexibly shows three separate conversion results (for example; Fluid Ounces, Cups and Pints) at the same time.
9) Kitchen timers with 3 simultaneous timers to coordinate your cooking endeavours! The timers keep counting when they reach zero so you can see how much extra time something has been cooking for which can be invaluable!
10) Easy and very fast to use with just a couple of touches to select conversions and measures.
11) Bright, clear, high-contrast layout that is easy to read, with everything in one place.
12) Ability to use common fractional quantities; 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4, 1/3 and 2/3.
13) Awesome dual layout for iPads which gives you two complete convertors side-by-side for even more conversion flexibility
14) Useful multi-app support so Cook's Convertor can share the screen side-by-side with your other favourite cooking apps.

The Plus version can be unlocked with a single in-app purchase to give extra features like:

1) Volume-to-Weight convertor with independently verified conversions for over 200 common ingredients so you can directly weigh many of them instead of using awkward volume measures.
2) You can add custom food items to the Volume-to-Weight list
3) U.K. to U.S. Volume conversions - for those annoying intercontinental recipes. where volumes such as cups are different on each side of the Atlantic.
4) Substitutions list giving over 50 ways of substituting common missing ingredients whilst keeping consistency and taste to your recipe.
5) Calculator-style keyboard which allows simple computations and also lets you combine quantities of different units.

Handy Cook’s Convertor

I’m in love with the added value this app has contributed to my life. Great for all kinds of purposes for measurement conversions. For example when getting information from a source and desiring to sort out other ways of creating awareness for unlimited options. Thank you so much for your exceptional customer service, improvements and making this so simple and easy to work with. 😊

Not just for cooking!

I'm looking forward to updating to the Plus version to add on cooking ingredient substitutions. The free version is truly perfect if you're looking for an ad-free, simple to use and simple to understand imperial to metric and vice versa converter for just about any measure you could need. It's not just for cooking.

Misleading Information

App has good tools. However, when I read substitutions, I immediately jumped and upgraded only to find there are no spices or herbs sub information. I believe the biggest challenge for any amateur cook is what to do when I am missing basil or oregano or dill, etc. there is none of that here.

I would be cool to be able to label each of the three timers so you don’t forget what is what. For example timer 1 fish timer 2 sauce etc etc. I think it would be very easy and super useful.

Developer Response ,

I’m sorry you don’t like the Cook’s Convertor but accusing me of misleading people is an unfair accusation which does not reflect my intent nor all the work that went into the app.

The more than fifty substitutions in the app were carefully chosen and tested by us to minimise the effect on your recipe. That is the point of a substitution. We do not include a lot of ineffective substitutions just to make up the numbers. A cook can change herbs and spices in a recipe if they choose but few taste alike so the recipe will be different - this is why we don’t include them in the list.

All the substitutions in the app are visible and greyed out in the free version so the user can see everything that will be available prior to upgrading.
