Please fix thanks ### 3/5 — Works but not updated often *2026-04-23* This was my go to currency converter, but it has not been updated in a year as of 4/26. It has a banner that says data is old and that it is not connected to the internet. This seems to be incorrect but it is is distracting and overshadows the interface. ### 4/5 — App says I am offline *2026-04-20, version 2.0.4* Why does it keep saying I am offline and only getting rates from 31st march 2026???!!! ### 2/5 — No updates and not able to connect to current rates?? Why? *2026-04-12* I used to enjoy this app. Even though I’m connected to the internet every day, it wouldn’t update the rates for 2 + months? I call b.s. Now I’m looking for another app, just like what others reported here. ### 2/5 — Annoying Banner *2026-04-07, version 2.0.4* The update has an annoying banner saying you are off line and I can’t get rid of the banner that covers data. ### 1/5 — Always says offline when it isn’t *2026-03-22, version 2.0.4* The app always says “Offline” even when I can click on the circled i icon and pull up the latest rate in the app. ### 4/5 — Issue *2026-03-20, version 2.0.4* The app was very simple and easy. However I keep getting an error message saying that I am offline and rates have not been updating for months now. That’s obviously not true because I am not offline. Please fix this. ### 1/5 — Off Libe *2026-03-05, version 2.0.4* It has been off line a week now without updating rates. Not the first time. Fix it ! ### 1/5 — Always says "not online" *2026-03-02* This upgrade came with an error message that says I'm not online even though I am. Your first version of the app was better as well. ### 1/5 — Horrible Redesign! *2025-03-04, version 2.0.4* Who updates an app to make it useless? This one, don’t waste your time. ### 1/5 — Horrible update *2024-09-27, version 2.0.1* The last “update” destroyed this once useful app. The developers are so stupid. Deleting and replacing. ### 2/5 — Update very primitive *2024-09-07, version 2.0.1* Hi Guys, im sure the new update from a developers point of view has some back end benifits that users will never really appreciate but the front end is like going back 10years in the look and most importantly, “dont forget” the user experience. I went looking for new app after my first use. ### 1/5 — Change it back!!! *2024-08-26* It was a fantastic app that you screwed up with this update. I want the old app back. Now I have to delete it and look for a different currency app!! Did someone actually get paid for this bright idea??? ### 1/5 — horrible update *2024-08-23* thank you for destroying a perfectively functional currency exchange app. Sometimes it is best to leave it alone if it’s working. To change something for the sake of change is not always the best option. ### 4/5 — Thanks for fixing the startup crash! *2024-03-21* Used to work great, then for months it crashed on startup. I eventually deleted it. Now it works again. Yay! ### 1/5 — No GBP conversion *2024-01-19, version 1.3.5* Been using this for years during travel to Europe. Now going to UK and realized this app does not include GBP (British Pound) as a currency you can convert to/from. ### 1/5 — Used to be fantastic, now crashes *2023-11-28* As another reviewer stated, the app now crashes on startup at the “loading rates” screen. I used to rely on this, now it’s useless. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Oanda used to be a good app *2026-07-26* This is no longer a working app. I constantly get a message that I’m offline and it doesn’t work at all. None of my favorites are saved anymore. I had done an update after many years of leaving it without one and now I regret it because the former layout was great and didn’t have any of these problems. I’m deleting it completely. Waste of my time. ### 1/5 — Too many random resets *2026-05-06* The app works when it works but it will randomly reset and clears all your favorites. It also constantly says you are offline even though it does in fact fetch the most recent data. ### 1/5 — Offline error message *2026-04-21, version 2.0.4* The app always shows a message telling me that I’m offline, and it won’t go away even though I’m online. ### 1/5 — Outdated rates *2026-04-18, version 2.0.4* No rates updates so app is basically useless ### 1/5 — Don’t work *2026-04-15* It doesn't show the current status, it says I'm offline. ### 1/5 — Does not connect to internet *2026-04-09, version 2.0.4* I have been using it for few years but recently it does not work properly and a pop up message comes up that it is off line. ### 1/5 — Not reliable *2026-04-03* Not reliable. It gives information that “you are off line” and provides results from a few days before even I am connected to super fast network. Consumer support is not responding to messages. ### 1/5 — Horrible Support *2026-03-30* I’ve enjoyed this app as long as it worked, but all of a sudden about a month ago, I started getting banners at the bottom of my screen, saying that I was off-line and the rates were current of …. and would give a date. I was definitely not off-line. I tried to reach out to the developers for help and the only choices you get are absurd. Report a scam, request a refund, etc. No option to report and enter the information about what the problem is. I will look for another app. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t update rates - says I’m offline *2026-03-26* Won’t update the rates. Says I am offline when I am connected to wifi. However if I click on the ‘i’ in the upper right first more rate details it gives the current rate. Clicking on the ‘view more data’ also gives current rates. Only the main page doesn’t update. Something is wrong. ### 1/5 — Deleted/reinstalled - still offline *2026-03-25* I had the same issue of being offline, but after deleting and reinstalling it, at least it is offline as of the time of the reinstall and not months and months ago. Please fix, as I have been a happy user for years ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good *2025-01-17, version 2.0.3* Just recently installed. Works well. ### 5/5 — Finally *2024-08-23* I have been waiting for this ### 5/5 — Tiny and useful *2023-11-08* Maybe an update to make it more elegant on modern device? Thanks anyway. ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2023-07-08* This is an easy app to use. I selected the county I need the conversion info… simple and efficient. I’ve been using this app for a few years now. Thank you for creating this app! ### 5/5 — Great simple app but needs updating *2019-11-14, version 1.3.5* Please update the app so that when you punch numbers into the app, the number keypad is the same layout as the native iPhone dialler keypad. Yours is the wrong way up. Other than that, the app does everything I need in a small package. ### 5/5 — Works great! Only one wish list item *2018-02-09* We review exchange rates on a quarterly basis so that our customers have a somewhat stable price. I love the simple interface and ease of use! My only wish is that you had the ability to change the date to see what it was historically, however, I can get that info from their website if/when I need it. ### 5/5 — Perfect. Exactly what I wanted. *2017-07-10* This is exactly what I wanted. Simple. Instant. No other insane features that I had no use for. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. ### 5/5 — Great app. *2016-09-19, version 1.3.5* Like this app. The review below regarding the UK pound and it not being listed is incorrect. It's under the heading as British pound. So obviously the person didn't look that hard for it as I found it in about 15 seconds of scrolling the county lists. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2016-04-08* Simple to use, gives the ability to adjust rates between interbank rates, atm rates, and more. Easy to switch between currencies. Not sure what more anyone could want! ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2016-01-05* Allows you to save favorites for currencies you use often. Simple sleek interface. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
