### 1/5 — Forex App

*2021-06-21, version 5.5*

I have purchased this app twice and rate of gbp usd is stuck at 1.4170 some how live rates not working

### 5/5 — Great App

*2020-08-20, version 5.5*

Really makes following cable so easy

### 1/5 — Bad

*2017-09-18, version 4.7.6*

This steals your money. They are bad people. It does not work

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2016-07-12, version 4.7.6*

Cannot change week setting to months.
Don't waste your £s on this rubbish.

### 4/5 — Good but not quite what I expected- some thoughts

*2015-10-15*

I like the very up to date information, and the on icon value listing. When I saw the week long graph of the ups and downs of the rate changes, I cringed a bit because there are no chart labels for the X (date/time) or Y axes (exchange rate). If you put your finger on and trace the chart, it will show the date/time and rate but you can't really judge trends or get a feel at a glance. 

I would ask for the next update include: (1) to at least include X- and Y- axis labels (see above) and label the date (Monday 12a, 6a, 12p, 6p - or whatever the scale already is) as well as the rate (1.48, 1.50, 1.52, etc. - or whatever the current scale is);
(2) have the option of looking at the previous month, previous week (as now), day, or other date stretches so as to better see trends or recall them.  These changes would be five-star rating. 

Thanks.

### 5/5 — Not Working

*2014-11-21, version 4.7.6*

This does not work.

Don't waste your money!

### 1/5 — Waste of money...

*2014-11-20, version 4.7.6*

Unable to change chart settings from weekly to another timeframe. 

Notifications do not come through even when alerts are set.

### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2014-10-16*

Despite having functions which are suppose to alert you when $ rises to a certain amount and falls, they do not work and switch off. Waste of $2

### 1/5 — Squarely you can improve this?

*2014-04-28, version 1.0*

Just too weak. No pound to other currency conversion for example
This is not what I expected from the App

### 1/5 — Very limited functionality

*2014-03-30, version 1.0*

I would not buy this app again. 
It is extremely limited in what it can do. I should have saved my money and just put a link to a currency converter on my home screen! :(
