Questions

Frequently asked questions

Can I go from pounds to kilograms?

Yes. Put pounds on the input side and kilograms on the other. Nothing about the panel favors one direction over the other.

Does my weight get uploaded?

No. The number is converted by code already running in your tab. It is not sent to a server and is not stored between visits.

Why do I get a slightly different figure elsewhere?

Rounding. The displayed answer is shortened so it reads cleanly, so the final digit can differ from a source that keeps more decimals.

What else does the weight category cover?

Both unit menus list the weight units available, so kilograms and pounds are two entries among the ones you can pick.

Background

Kilograms, pounds and rounding

Weight is a category in the same panel as length and temperature. Choose it, type the kilogram figure, set pounds opposite, and the converted weight and formula appear at once. No upload is involved.

  • Weight conversion is a single factor, which is why the formula shown is short.
  • The input and output menus are set separately, so the direction is yours to choose.
  • The answer is rounded for reading, so the last digit is not meant to be exact.
  • Nothing entered is kept, and reloading gives you an empty panel again.
