  • Handy accurate math conversion

    I’ve been using this app for awhile and find it very easy to get the info you want. The USA hasn’t converted the measurement to metric to facilitate greater commonality amongst the world nations. As we still use miles, yards, feet and inches, this app becomes more relevant for navigating the numbers!

  • Super User-Friendly

    I used it during my time in Israel and now on my trip to Thailand. It converts instantly and has an option to save your favorite most-used conversions. There is a toggle to switch back and forth which is also handy. It’s updates since the last time I traveled made it even more user-friendly!
  • Easy to use, with most currency covered

    I travel overseas at least 4 times a year and find this app useful for currency conversion at airports both here and OS.
  • Global Convert

    As a world news watcher in the US, I use Global Convert to figure meters to feet, pounds to dollars, etc etc for all the conversions to&from our numerics and the metric system (mostly metric, but there are occasionally others). And yes, I do know that I should simply complete the promise of learning the metric system I continue to make to myself, but procrastination runs deep. So, until I do overcome my nasty habit of delay, I thank you, Global Convert, for helping to place our world’s happenings a bit more in context!

  • Used to be more convenient...

    Now every time I open the app to punch in currency conversions, it already has values entered from the last time I used the app. Why would I need that? I have to delete those values before I can use it again.
  • Just keeps on keeping up!

    Once you download this app, you won’t need another currency converter. Not to mention, the fact that this app also takes care of the international metric system. Not much to say but why not!
  • Not accurate for currency

    Though the currency converter tells you the conversion rate, it doesn’t actually match. I am dollars and cents off. It doesn’t sound like a big deal, but I was using this to help with the expense report for an international move. So had I not checked this sheet against our credit card statement we literally would have lost hundreds of dollars. I wouldn’t trust this app for currency conversion. It is okay if you kind of want a ballpark range. But at that point you should be able to just do that in your head.

    I’ve used this for USD to NOK, Euro, and GBP

    Developer Response

    When you purchases something abroad it also could apply some additional fee or conversion, that's why it could be very different from what app shows. Also there is 2 prices buy and sell they are also different. We don't have both and for particular place, it also depends from country to country and from bank to bank how much the would charge you.
  • Brilliant app

    Great app! Let’s hope they don’t ruin it with ads!
  • Will convert almost anything, but still has a glitch?

    This is an excellent conversion tool. It will convert almost anything you need, but every time you open it it displays the last conversion done. It doesn’t matter if you clear it before closing the app, it will still have to be cleared to use it again. Annoying.
  • Great reference

    I have used global converter on many overseas trips and refer to it regularly. Whether I need to get a handle on the local currency, the weather or measurements, I get the conversion in a few clicks. Obviously, an internet connection is required for currency conversion as rates can change anytime, but everything else works beautifully without a connection. A must have for every overseas trip!
