### 4/5 — numbered bars not congruent

*2025-10-01*

I love urban forex but recently the initial list to show the strength of currencies do not match up with the strength of the bar list with the numbers. I don’t know where else to mention this please address it thank you.

### 3/5 — Great app

*2021-05-29*

3 stars only because the app crashes if you try looking at previous data.

**Developer response:** Can you reach out to info@urbanforex.com to explain in more detail when this crash happens?

### 4/5 — Complete Joke? Not really True.

*2021-02-10*

This app is a joke.. GBP has been the strongest currency for a few days and they said the JPY is the weakest but somehow the supposedly weakest currency keeps pull “the strongest currency”.  I don’t know what the credentials are for making and selecting the currencies but whoever is behind that decision should do better. I paid for this app to reduce my fundamental tracking but it seems I’m better at this than the supposedly professionals. 
DO BETTER

I’m here to correct the above review.. I didn’t want to delete the previous review so I’ll just add to it.

It turns out I was the one who doesn’t really know how to properly select pairs to trade with the information in the app.. Doing an eye test with the information provided so far, it’s been pretty accurate. I guess I’m just bad at pair selection. Hopefully Navin and him team will finish up with the pair selection app. Cheers.

**Developer response:** GBP is the strongest on the Daily time frame (still is, at time of writing this). This is a long term view and thus volatility during a single day is not that relevant and influential on the Daily strength numbers.
The way to use the FX Meter is to look for setups that line up with the numbers, as they have a higher probability of playing out and moving further. It is in no way advisable to blindly trade based on the numbers. We always strictly follow price action as taught in the Mastering Price Action 2.0.

I hope that clears it up.

### 4/5 — Subscriptions

*2020-05-21, version 1.8*

I switched from an Android to an iPhone how do I get my subscription back? I had the semi annual

### 1/5 — Bad information

*2020-05-14*

Don’t waste your money with this rubbish app I used and I lost allot it is much deferent with finviz website you can noticed and compare

**Developer response:** Could you explain what you mean with this?
"it is much deferent with finviz website"

Thanks!

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2020-04-21*

Don’t buy that, available on several financial website for free

**Developer response:** Other currency strength meters are just a lagging indicator. Our FX Meter numbers are based on human analysis.
Reach out to info@urbanforex.com if you have any further questions.

### 1/5 — Customer support

*2020-04-17*

I thought that there were more features on the Forex Meter application and created a support ticket. I received a response back in the form of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ); however, my questions were not answered. I sent another request for help indicating that my question was not answered and RECEIVED THE SAME MESSAGE AGAIN with no evidence that anybody bothered to read my concern.

Navin Prithyani is a good teacher; however, I am disappointed that his customer service support team did not answer my questions.

**Developer response:** Can you reach out to info@urbanforex.com with your question and do mention this review here. Thanks :)

### 2/5 — Too expensive for what you get

*2020-04-09*

I am big fan of urban forex, but to be honest it’s really to expensive, this app looks really old and basically it’s usesell because tell you nothing that you can’t discover by yourself in 10 minutes. Upgraded almost everyday but without know the WHY some pairs are gonna be weak in daily and strong in 4h otherwise what’s the point? Trusting blindly 🤣 
Idea it’s good, but at the moment 2 stars.
- new style
- why some pairs are gonna be weak or strong( maybe weekly review??)
- STINU app is more much better and useful

**Developer response:** The numbers are updated every day that markets are open. How the numbers are created is explained in the advanced educational programs.
Reach out to info@urbanforex.com if you have any further questions :)

### 1/5 — App crashing

*2020-04-01*

I subscribed and the amount even got deducted from my account but now when I’m trying to open the app it’s crashing again and again .
Please help

**Developer response:** Can you reach out to info@urbanforex.com so we can look into why this happens.
Thanks :)

### 1/5 — Not worth money

*2020-03-24, version 1.8*

It is updating only once a day. Anybody can get currency strength for free with 5 minutes updates on daily time frame at currency-strength.com
I would not suggest this to anyone. It just look good nothing else.

### 1/5 — Enganoso

*2024-09-22*

Não fala que é pago, quando entramos no aplicativo pede para assinar um plano

### 1/5 — No updates

*2022-08-09*

Paid the whole year down loaded the app, instantly received information, however the next day information is the same no changes in 2 days when looking at the charts the currency are doing the complete opposite. Go figure

**Developer response:** It may at times be that the Daily numbers don't change for a day or two. This is normal, as the Daily is a very high time frame and the strength will not always change on that time frame from day to day.
Even if the market goes against that strength/weakness temporarily during some time of a day, it may not mean that the Daily strength will change.
I hope that clears it up.

### 1/5 — Tsvetkov

*2021-06-02*

You get nothing for the price you pay , updating the app once a day it’s waste of time where finviz update every 30 min and ifs free

**Developer response:** Our FX Meter numbers are based on human analysis of the markets by our team. We do this every day manually. Other currency strength meters are just a lagging indicator and can't be compared.

### 1/5 — Inaccurate

*2021-05-28, version 2.2*

Inaccurate

### 1/5 — Do not buy!!! SCAM!

*2021-02-14, version 1.9*

I bought the app a 7 days ago and nothing has changed in the meter. I reached out to support last week and heard nothing back. There are plenty of free apps which are just as affective.

### 1/5 — Must have if you want to be a winner  in Forex markets

*2021-01-05*

Avoid it and avoid Urban Forex
Complete waste of money and time.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2020-07-24, version 1.8*

Screens are blank. Possibly had promise but wasted money for this app.

### 1/5 — Upload your platform

*2020-07-17*

Do yous get any upload at all,have same platform from yesterday lol

**Developer response:** Are you asking whether the app is  updated? Yes, it is updated every business day prior to the open of the London market.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2020-06-03*

It show Aud +7 and jpy -7 so Aud/jpy going down!

**Developer response:** You'll have to remember that the strength meter isn't an indicator for us to get in on a trade. The strength meter is a filter that we want to use for our risk control. For example, once we have established a territory, and as we are gauging the pullback on the Trading Time Frame (TTF), we will only at that point, check if the strength meter agrees with our big boy's direction or not. 

The priority would still be on to apply the concepts of the Mastering Price Action 2.0 program.

### 1/5 — Not working well

*2020-05-24, version 1.8*

Have paid and anytime I close and open the app it takes me to the page of paying for it again why ? And I can’t find more than daily time frame and 4h

### 5/5 — Urban Forex is the best!

*2024-12-05, version 2.5*

Best currency strength meter. Accurately updates everyday. Keeps you ahead of the curve!

### 5/5 — Not all functionalities exist as promised in the video

*2022-02-06*

Can not open the line graph anymore

**Developer response:** Can you confirm that your rotation-lock is turned off?
Otherwise please reach out to info@urbanforex.com.

### 5/5 — To find out the wind direction

*2021-07-11*

I learned how to measure currency strength with Urban Forex, the creators of this beautiful and useful app. Even though I know how to evaluate the strength of all currencies, I use it to compare my evaluation with that of these professional analysts. This application keeps me from getting lost, a real compass!

### 5/5 — Currency strength meter

*2021-03-31*

Great tool

### 5/5 — Amazingly Precise forecast indicator!

*2020-10-06*

I am absolutely amazed at the precision of this forrcast. I actually make an excel table and at the end of the day check if the move was where the strength was and 65-70% of the time the FX meter ir right! Amazing!  my routine is to get the pairs that have a 5 or 7 with a pair that has a 1 or 3 positive and negative and trade only in the direction of this indicator. It’s the best indicator. Congratulations to those minds Navin and his tean for developing this. I now feel much more secure on the direction I should take every day and my trading has improved drastically! Good Luck!

### 5/5 — Notifications

*2020-08-14*

Please add notifications when the new data get released.

### 5/5 — Great correlation app

*2020-07-23*

I use this before I take every trade and it’s a key part in my analysis and strategy when trading

### 5/5 — Fix meter review

*2020-05-15*

I really like the app. Excellent strength heat map regardless of ones strategy.

I appeal that the service continues till forever. 

UF👌

### 5/5 — The GOLDEN KEY!

*2020-03-17*

The very next thing you do after turning on your laptop and brewing your coffee is checking these numbers.

After all, knowing which pair to trade and why should be every trader’s first decision of the day.

Knowing this at a glance in the 1D and 4hr  timeframes is priceless.

Cheers

### 5/5 — Convenient

*2019-11-19*

Nice to have this app on my phone as I trade mostly on my phone !
