Currency Reviews

I took off 2 stars because: in a recent update, previous screen real estate was taken up for the this app name. It’s obnoxiously large text. Completely unnecessary. Now the numeral pad is too small to accurately punch in numbers. I find myself not using Currency because on my watch because I frequently, accidentally type in the wrong number rendering Currency useless for the Apple Watch now.

A heads-up -> Just updated to the latest version - all ‘saved’ currencies are gone except for the top 7 major currencies. (..and since when has Chinese yuan become a major this app??)
You’ll need to re-save your preferences and rearrange the currencies in the order you like them.

They just added 2 more crypto currencies so now they track Bitcoin as well as Ethereum and Litecoin. I use Currency extensively when traveling. Now I can also use it to track my crypto wallet investments.
Greatly appreciated Jeff!

Thanks for listening to our feedback. The new, darker layout option is fantastic! Should be the default option as it's so much better!

Other Suggestions/Comments:
===> the advertisement banner at the bottom is way too close to the number "0". Several times now I ended up being taken to an app which is supposed to tell me "who I'll marry?!" while I was trying to type three zeroes. <===

To save space (so the font can become even thicker/easier to read) I'd use country name & this app name versus the possessive form of a country's name. In other words Hungary • Forint versus the present Hungarian Forint. Norway • Krone versus Norwegian Krone, etc. This method saves several letters (Switzerland/Swiss is the exception). It also makes country names easier to find for non-native English speakers, i.e. the majority of Currency's users.

I have had Currency from pretty much when Jeff first released it. How he improves it makes me sit down, but he manages to do just that with every release. Also, how he handled merging his two apps (free and paid) into one was just the easiest transition ever. Thank you for a job well done.

I have been using Currency for some years now. I love it. It has never disappointed! It’s always been on point. Anytime I launch Currency it refreshes and updates instantly. The calculator feature is a plus. I highly recommend it. It’s a must have on every smartphone.😊

Seriously, I’ve been to more than ten countries and Currency is super useful! Prior having Currency, I had to take a mental crash course to figure out the country’s this app and make estimation on how much I spend and how much I lose which is often time consuming and takes the fun out of traveling sometimes. Currency saves me the trouble of asking locals awkward questions about money and helps me by shielding me away from situations where I could be taken adventure of simply because I don’t know how to accurately count money based on their this app.

I downloaded Currency when I was traveling in England and found it perfectly helpful & easy to use while traveling. And I have used it occasionally while not traveling, which has been a pleasant discovery.

Went on a trip to several countries over the summer and Currency was not only easy to use, but it displays several this app types at the same time - I loved it and just having that information saved us a great deal of money

I just got back from a multi-country trip with very different exchange rates. We were crossing borders back and forth so it was really helpful to be able to see relative values quickly and without Internet or wifi. Thanks, this is how apps should work.

Look no further, Makes converting really simple and quick. Used it while buying and haggling prices, and made things quick and smooth. So I’m reality saved me $$ and see how much I’ve spent on the trip, to stay in budget. Will be using it in Portugal later this year. Will be a great asset as I travel different countries.

This this app app is one of the first apps I downloaded on my original iPhone, and I’ve never seen one I like better. It does its job very well without calling undue attention to itself, and I use it almost every day.

Currency quickly shows you the value of purchases in any this app compared to your home this app. Just put in the this app you purchased and it gives you the cost in your home this app. I am traveling in Europe and used it for Croatia and Euro. Fast and easy

Very handy app that you can always use with or a WiFi connection. Its very accurate as it shows you when the this app is going up or down. I wouldn’t travel without it, unless you can convert foreign this app in your head on the fly! When negotiating a price, this is what you want!

I use Currency pretty often and I really enjoy it and very happy with it I use it to know the this app rates of different country’s since I do business with different country’s also the this app converter is very helpful I put any amount in any this app and (not even) in a split second I have the right calculation it’s amazing

I’m using it right now for my trip to Peru and it’s proven to be very useful and easy to use. It’s updated so I can compare the this app exchange on Currency to what the local hotel, bank or ATM will give me. I use it when arranging the price of a taxi with the driver and when checking my bill at a restaurant. Like I said, easy to use. I’m traveling a lot this year so it’s staying on my phone.

This isn’t really a review, it’s more of a question, As I’ve seen in other reviews that Currency used to work and has since then stopped working, there are responses to those reviews that in the latest update the problem was resolved. My app is up to date and the problem hasn’t been resolved.

It’s a great app and personally everyone should have as updates are near to real time. Been using it for the last 8 years or so especially when we’re a family that moves around the globe. Great for this app investors and also while travelling for pleasure/work. Updates are frequent which is good for unnecessary app crashes.

I love Currency to get all my global this app conversions! It also works to easily “triangulate” multiple currencies at one time- something most sites don’t do!
I’ve noticed some recent updates that make Currency even better too!
(The currencies seem quite accurate, but I actually don’t know the source or the update frequency. I inquired with the developer once to confirm, but don’t recall a response.)

I have only tried 2-3 this app converters but this one is by far my favorite! Extremely useful if you travel often and you want to stay up to date in regards to the this app exchange. You can also use it offline and it will give you the latest this app exchange (based on when you were last online). You choose which currencies to have and you can change it as you wish 👍
Totally recommend it!

I use Currency in North Macedonia for paying my bills and when buying items from the big box stores. I am an American which moved to North Macedonia about 5 months ago and without Currency I wouldn’t really understand if I’m paying a fair price for items or if I was being taken advantage of. I now use Currency everyday. It has saved me hundreds of dollars. Thank you for making the money translator so easy to use.

If you are traveling abroad this is THE conversion app you need. Want to know how much that item costs in $?, instantly convert off line. You can load only those currencies you will be using and change in the future if you need to so you aren’t having to scroll through a hundred countries to find what you want.

I love this application tons. I'm considering upgrading, however, if ads are the only thing removed, I'll pass. In order to upgrade Currency, I would love to see historical fluctuations in the horizontal view. Maybe and additional piece of info, like news from that country that is affecting their market? Thank you.

I travel for a living and I am always looking for an app that keeps me current but also one which I don’t have to dump because it’s outdated and missing components I need. Currency is so simple and clean. Air updates, off line use, crypto currencies if you need that. A must for global movers.

Simply type in the amount and the conversion shows up. This is helpful for shopping, etc, not for use in determining when to buy/exchange your money. In Asia, as we went to multiple countries and were dealing with multiple currencies, Currency was great!

Love the interface and usability and with the latest dark mode update, the interface is stunning! Easy 5 stars

Update: I noticed that in dark mode too when Currency is opened it starts off with a Green screen that quickly transitions into black / dark mode. Would be nice if they didn’t happen.

I’ve been using the basic this app app for years and find it indispensable during my frequent travels overseas. Very flexible and customizable—you select the currencies you want and their list order. A must have app!
