Convertible Celebrates First Anniversary With Biggest Update Yet
April 19, 2013
A year ago, the popular conversion app Convertible was released in the App Store, complete with standard and nonstandard conversion capabilities. Now, in celebration of its first anniversary, Convertible has been issued what is said to be its biggest update yet.

In addition, it delivers the following major changes:
Optimized for iPhone and iPod touch running iOS 5.0 or later, the new version of Convertible is available now in the App Store. A month ago, Convertible went free for several days. I was able to download it then, thanks to our very own AppsGoneFree feature. But if you weren't, you can download it now in the App Store for $1.99. Of course, existing users of the app can update to the new version for free.
