New extension: autoConvert Select
autoConvert does not work well with many modern websites that use technologies like react, vue or angular. It also tends to slow down some websites ocassionally.
autoConvert Select has been designed to work smoothly with modern web technologies. Being request based, it does not impact website performance either. autoConvert Select even converts time zones! It will be the main extension developed going forward.
autoConvert Select is available on both Chrome and Firefox, and may soon come to Android as well.
Currency conversion
Currency conversion feature has been removed from autoConvert.
The previous (free) source for currency exchange rates was removed by the provider. I have been unable to find another free source, so the feature had to be removed.
I intend to bring the feature back in the new extension – autoConvert Select at some time in the future.
autoConvert deprecation
The old autoConvert extension will be deprecated near the end of 2018.
Unit conversion in autoConvert will continue to function normally as long as you have the extension installed. But there won’t be any new development on the extension.
autoConvert Select is the place to go for that, and more!
