Latest version
Version 1.1.16
Released Jun 7, 2026 - 44.05 KBWorks with firefox 58.0 and laterRelease Notes — 1.1.16 (2026-06-07)
Performance- Fixed stuttery typing in reply boxes — Typing into rich-text editors such as Reddit's comment and reply boxes was choppy, pausing for a fraction of a second every few characters. Text now types smoothly. The extension no longer does pointless background work while you type inside an editable field.

Version 1.1.15
Released Jun 2, 2026 - 3.35 MBWorks with firefox 58.0 and laterRelease Notes — 1.1.15 (2026-06-04)
Performance- Fixed CPU spikes and freezing on large comment pages — Busy pages with lots of comments (e.g. Reddit threads) could peg the CPU and freeze the browser for several seconds as new comments loaded in. The page scanner now handles large, deeply-nested pages efficiently and does its work in the background without blocking the page.
Bug Fixes- All values now get highlighted on large pages — On very long pages, some amounts further down could be skipped and left un-highlighted. Every detected value is now highlighted.
- "5M€" and similar amounts are now read as currency — Amounts like
5M€were being mistaken for a measurement (5 metres) instead of a currency value. They're now correctly detected and converted.

Version 1.1.14
Released May 31, 2026 - 279.96 KBWorks with firefox 58.0 and laterRelease Notes — 1.1.14 (2026-05-31)
Bug Fixes- Currency symbols after the amount are now detected — Prices written the European way, with the symbol after the number (e.g.
40€,350£,1,000€), are now picked up and converted. Previously only the€40style was recognised, so euro prices on many European pages were missed.
Performance- Lower CPU on constantly-updating pages — Regions that update continuously (live auctions, countdown timers, streaming prices) are now detected and skipped instead of being repeatedly re-scanned.

Version 1.1.13
Released May 23, 2026 - 275.31 KBWorks with firefox 58.0 and laterRelease Notes — 1.1.13 (2026-05-24)
Performance- Fixed high CPU usage and freezing on constantly-updating pages — On pages that change continuously (live auctions, infinite-scroll feeds, video players), the extension could pin the CPU and hang for up to ~30 seconds while selecting text. It no longer re-scans the same content in a loop, skips live/auto-updating regions, and waits for the page to be genuinely idle before scanning.

- Improved regex to support single temperature letter after number including "Set it to 125f and...".

Version 1.1.11
Released Apr 3, 2026 - 267.49 KBWorks with firefox 58.0 and laterBug Fixes- Fixed double currency symbol on some pricing pages — On pages where the currency symbol (
$,€, etc.) is in a separate HTML element from the number, the extension was showing$$1instead of$1. Fixed.

Version 1.1.10
Released Mar 28, 2026 - 265.55 KBWorks with firefox 58.0 and laterRelease Notes — 2026-03-28
What's New- Report conversion issues — New feedback button lets you report problems directly from the popup or settings page. Right-click selected text for conversion-specific reports, or use the settings button for general feedback.
Bug Fixes- Fixed popup lag on long-lived pages — Pages with frequent DOM updates (e.g. video players) could cause the extension to freeze when selecting text. Scanning is now deduplicated and capped to prevent backlog buildup.
- Fixed comma-thousands numbers misread as decimals — Numbers like "1,800 ft" were incorrectly parsed as 1.8 ft. Thousands separators are now properly detected and handled across all unit types.
- Fixed highlights disappearing on live-updating pages — Pages that update values dynamically (React, frameworks) no longer lose their unit highlights when content changes.
- Fixed number format detection — Improved parsing for various number formats.
Settings Improvements- Reorganized settings layout for clarity
- Developer tools moved behind a hidden toggle to keep the UI clean

Version 1.1.9
Released Mar 26, 2026 - 104.06 KBWorks with firefox 58.0 and laterNew Features- Settings page — Configure preferred unit system, target currency, temperature/fuel display preferences, hover toggle, page scan toggle, and the hold-to-replace key
- Hold-key page replacement — Hold a configurable key (default: Alt) to replace all detected units/currencies on the page with their conversions at once; release to restore
- Fuel efficiency conversions — Detects and converts MPG, L/100km, and km/L (handles the inverse MPG↔L/100km relationship correctly)
- Unit system filtering — Page scan skips highlighting units already in your preferred unit system; re-scans automatically when the setting changes
Bug Fixes- Hyphenated quantities — Values like "28-ounce" and "2-pound" are now detected correctly
- False positives on model/part numbers — Numbers preceded by letters (e.g. DC62-00024M) or with leading zeros (e.g.007) are no longer matched as unit values
- Currency rate readiness — Fixed a bug where currency rates always appeared unready because the date check didn't account for ECB publishing previous-day dates
- Cross-element unit detection — Page scan now operates at the block level, correctly detecting measurements that span inline elements (e.g. <b>28</b> oz)
- Hold-replace with rich content — Restoring spans after hold-replace now correctly restores original HTML (not just text) for units that span inline elements
