Type further to filter for target units. Connector words (“to”, “as”, “in”) are optional to help with readability. Rounding precision and notation can be set in the Workflow’s Configuration.

great workflow!

a couple of suggestions:

 

1) to add the option of showing thousand separators

e.g. speed of light:

2) it would be great to accept as input imperial measurements (e.g. 5ft8in to cm),

3) accept ' for ft and '' for inches (e.g. 5'8'')

Currency conversion was planned as a different workflow from the start, because it’s a different type of measurement that changes unpredictably over time and requires an internet connection, the APIs are completely separate. This allows having each workflow play to their strengths (e.g. including flags for currencies). Currency Converter is now live.
