However, with the recent 2.0 update, the app has become overly complicated, as you now have to add the currencies of different countries to a list and then juggle them around to get different conversions. Also, the new color scheme is gaudy at times and hard to navigate at others. This definitely feels like an update where the developer felt like they had to justify a major version number advancement, but all that resulted is a worse experience for the end user. ### 4/5 — Much better! *2016-06-20, version 2.1* Yay, switching between currencies is back! Still a bit glitchy but getting better. ### 1/5 — Ruined *2016-06-13, version 2.0* Why change? It's now terrible, unusable, awful. ### 3/5 — Crashes *2016-06-11, version 2.0* Crashes on open bused to work well ### 1/5 — V2.0 *2016-06-11, version 2.0* This version is a big step backwards. ### 1/5 — Used to be great before 2.0. What happened?!? *2016-06-11, version 2.0* This used to be my go to app for currency conversion. I loved how simple it was and how you could swap the currencies with one touch of a button. That swap button seems to have disappeared in version 2.0, which is very disappointing. But that's not as disappointing as the fact that the app now randomly crashes, forcing you to manually close the app and reopen it. The only bright side about the switch is that the conversions are instant now instead of the 1-3 second delay they used to have. But app crashing and no swap kills this app. I'll update my review when they fix these issues. Otherwise I'm going to be using other stable conversion apps until then. ### 1/5 — Horrible App *2015-07-20, version 1.1.1* Illogical, not easy to use, takes way too long to find the currency you need. I have no idea how this got so much attention. ### 3/5 — Good but not great *2015-05-25, version 1.1.1* Was cool when it first came out, very aesthetically pleasing with iOS 7. But the developer has abandoned it, with no updates almost since launch in 2013. Looks pretty poor on the bigger iPhone 6 and 6+ and just has annoying quirks - rounding errors, currency list not in alpha order, etc. as a free app it's fine but there are better options. ### 3/5 — Meh *2014-08-01, version 1.1.1* The UI is attractive, but not very intuitive (the action that reveals a "delete button in other apps, swiping an entry in a list to the left, reveals the option to add a currency to favorites here). But there doesn't seem to be an actual favorites list, you can't change the color (the screenshots in the description seem to be lying), and it's just generally limited functionality. I don't understand why it's so popular. ### 3/5 — There's an issue with calculation *2014-02-09, version 1.1.1* When converting from Korean Won to US Dollars there is a significant rounding error. I noticed this when I switched the currencies back and forth, between the dollar and won, the amount keeps on changing. When switching back and forth the amount should stay the same... in theory. I think this is caused by a rounding error when converting to US dollars. Besides the huge conversation error, this is the best looking exchange app on the App Store. After a few bug fixes I would rate this 5-stars ### 3/5 — No Add favorites button *2013-12-29, version 1.1.1* There is no add favorites button. Will you add them please? ### 4/5 — Simple Nice *2013-12-14, version 1.1.1* Overall clean interface, but not sure how to add currency into Favourite. ### 3/5 — update has ads :( *2013-11-01, version 1.1.1* so far the ads only show up when searching the currency list.... for the most part it's still pretty good, however, the much needed favorites feature is not fully developed and somewhat confusing. kurrency would serve itself well by tightening up the features and getting rid of the ads (perhaps an in-app ad removal purchase?)... it has the potential to be better and I hope the devs stay committed. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — DO NOT USE *2019-02-22, version 2.2* Unreliable as it does not update. Trusted it for the last month before I realized it hadn’t updated for...months? ### 1/5 — Not accurate *2018-01-30, version 2.2* I had to delete because it isn’t accurate. 1 $ to shekels on Kurrency is 3.8, whereas the correct amount for the time I was checking was 3.4... simply not accurate and therefore useless ### 1/5 — Terrible update *2016-08-12, version 2.1* This app used to be so simple to use and looked great. I think the update was developed in MS Paint. It's unfathomably bad ### 1/5 — Disappointing update *2016-07-05, version 2.1* This used to be straightforward. This new color scheme leaves to be desired. It used to be much easier to find the country currency and just convert. Also it's now missing currencies. Can't find east carribean dollar. Disappointing update for now. ### 1/5 — Deleted - changed for the worse *2016-06-30, version 2.1* No idea why this interface was changed - it's now unnecessarily complicated and switching between currencies does not work correctly. Used to use it all the time. Deleted and got an alternative. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2016-06-18, version 2.0* The new update was an attempt to 'fix' something that did not need fixing. The previous version was very user friendly and easy to use, the new layout is terrible and quite complicated to use. ### 1/5 — Really bad update *2016-06-17, version 2.0* This UI increases the amount of confirmation/clicks, hides information, and lost the "swap currency" functionality of the previous version. Almost completely useless ATM. ### 1/5 — Used to be good *2016-06-14, version 2.0* Used to be an excellent ap; clean UI, simple to use. Now I can't get a simple currency conversion to work. Why, WHY ?? Bring back the previous version ! ### 1/5 — Changed for the worse *2016-06-13, version 2.0* New update makes it really hard to use and not user friendly at all. Will be deleting and getting a different currency app. What a shame ### 1/5 — Used to be simple and good *2016-06-13, version 2.0* Seriously this update is the worse. Even the search doesn't work well ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Kurrency *2015-06-13, version 1.1.1* Works well, easy to use & isn’t bloated with cr@p, so it doesn’t take up much room on my already nearly full phone ! Nice app. ### 5/5 — Impeccably neat. *2014-02-04, version 1.1.1* Such a clean UI and thoroughly easy to use. Requires a bit of learning of getting to know how it fully works but once familiarised, you can't get your hands off it when traveling! ### 5/5 — Simple & Beautiful *2013-12-07, version 1.1.1* It is definitely one of the most elegant currency apps I've tried. ### 5/5 — Great Currency App! *2013-10-14, version 1.0.1* Great iOS7 design and very easy to use! Great App!! ### 5/5 — Very Good *2013-10-14, version 1.0.1* Clean looking app, serves it's function. ### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed! *2013-10-13, version 1.0.1* Love this so much! Been searching for a simple app like this with a good design for a long time! Only thing is it takes a little while to load the currency but nothing that bothers me too much! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2013-10-13, version 1.0.1* Download it!! ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2013-10-11, version 1.0.1* Easy to use. ### 5/5 — Was "just ok"...now MUCH better! *2013-10-08, version 1.0.1* My previous complaints (below) have been addressed within a surprisingly short period of time. It's still "just" a currency converter, but that's exactly what I was. JUST that. No extra noise to get in the way. I also wouldn't mind the ability to maybe have a 2nd or 3rd conversion option for times when traveling to places that accept two or three different currencies. --old review: It's just another currency converter. Works ok, but fails completely to be useful when switching between other apps. I switched over to my dictionary to see how to say the number and then switched back to see the number again just to see that it was missing and I had to type it in again. :( ### 5/5 — Great! *2013-10-04, version 1.0* Beautiful design, very simple, yet useful --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
