This little mod can only be done on rooted phones at least, recovery recommended because you have to modify a System file: system/etc/floating_feature.xml

Just (carefully) add this line:

<SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_CALCULATOR_SUPPORT_CONVERTER>TRUE</SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_CALCULATOR_SUPPORT_CONVERTER>
It should work on any Note5 and S6 and S7 models running Nougat because the feature is already there, It is just disabled by default.

I'm attaching a flashable zip with MY OWN floating_feature.xml. DO NOT FLASH IT AS IT IS, it is just an example for you guys. Make a backup of your own file and edit that and use the zip to install it (just replace said file with your own inside the zip) or add the line using Root explorer. If the phone bootloops you will have to flash the zip via custom Recovery. If you have a custom ROM or a stock one this will work. No need to clear caches or app data. After rebooting you will see a ruler like icon on the calculator app.
