A characteristic of iOS 16 si iPadOS 16 about which less has been said, is the unit of measure converter (units converter in iOS 16).
If until this version of iOS I needed a separate application like that we convert between imperial and metric units of measure (Metric si Imperial), now it is enough to hold down the text in which we have the values.

The value of a temperature expressed in degrees Celsius, Fahrenheit or Kelvin sent in a text message (Messages) or saved in a note from Note, can be transformed into any of the three units of measure.
