Convert 150+ world currencies at live exchange rates — plus 30 cryptocurrencies and gold, silver, platinum and palladium — and keep the pairs you care about on your Home Screen. Built for people who check rates constantly: travelers comparing prices abroad, freelancers invoicing in another currency, shoppers working out what an international checkout really costs, and anyone watching a rate before they move money. HOME SCREEN WIDGET Pin your main currency pair to the Home Screen and read the current rate without opening anything. The widget updates as rates move, so the number you glance at is the number that matters. LIVE EXCHANGE RATES Rates for more than 150 world currencies, refreshed through the day. Set any currency as your base and every other currency converts against it instantly. SEE EVERY CURRENCY AT ONCE Most converters show one pair at a time. This one shows a list. Enter an amount once and read it in every currency you follow, in the same view — which is what you actually want when you are planning a multi-country trip or comparing prices across suppliers. RATE HISTORY CHARTS See how any pair has moved over 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 6 months, 1 year or 5 years. Enough context to tell whether today is an unusually good moment to exchange, or an unusually bad one. CRYPTO AND PRECIOUS METALS Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, XRP, Cardano, Dogecoin, Litecoin and 23 more sit in the same list as ordinary currencies — so you can read BTC straight into euros, or your local currency into an ounce of gold, without switching apps. Gold, silver, platinum and palladium are priced per ounce. WORKS OFFLINE The rates you last loaded stay available with no connection at all. Landing in a new country before you have a SIM or Wi-Fi is exactly when a converter needs to still work. BUILT TO BE QUICK A dedicated number pad for fast entry, drag-and-drop reordering, and favorites so the currencies you use most stay at the top of the list. No account, no sign-up, no setup. CURRENCIES INCLUDED US Dollar, Euro, British Pound, Japanese Yen, Swiss Franc, Canadian Dollar, Australian Dollar, Chinese Yuan, Indian Rupee, Brazilian Real, Mexican Peso, Turkish Lira, Saudi Riyal, UAE Dirham, Singapore Dollar, Hong Kong Dollar, South Korean Won, South African Rand, Polish Zloty, Czech Koruna, Swedish Krona, Norwegian Krone, Danish Krone, Thai Baht, Vietnamese Dong, Indonesian Rupiah, Malaysian Ringgit, Philippine Peso, Pakistani Rupee, Bangladeshi Taka, Nigerian Naira, Kenyan Shilling, Egyptian Pound, Moroccan Dirham, Argentine Peso, Chilean Peso, Colombian Peso, New Zealand Dollar, Israeli Shekel, Ukrainian Hryvnia, Romanian Leu, Hungarian Forint — and over 100 more. Missing a currency, or found something that looks wrong? There is a feedback option in Settings and it reaches a real person.

IN Forex shows today’s gold rate in rupees for 24K, 22K and 18K, per 10 g and per gram, and silver per kg, updated about once a minute. It also estimates what a piece of gold jewellery should cost, and keeps more than a hundred currencies against the rupee. GOLD: 24K, 22K AND 18K Gold leads with the rate per 10 g, with the rate per gram beside it, and gives 24K, 22K and 18K each its own rate. The troy ounce is still on the unit switch. WHAT THE RATE IS The gold and silver rates are our estimate of the rate in India: the world price in rupees plus India’s import duty, before GST. Shops set their own rates, so a jeweller’s rate can be higher or lower. The world price is one tap away. Platinum and palladium are shown at the world price. SILVER, PLATINUM AND PALLADIUM Silver leads with the rate per kg, with the rate per gram beside it. Platinum and palladium are on the board too, per 10 g and per gram, marked as the world price. When a rate changes, the digits that changed roll over and the figure turns green or red, so you see the move as it happens. PRICE A PIECE OF GOLD The Estimate tab works out what a piece should cost. Enter the weight in grams, 10 g, pavan or tola. Choose the purity: 24K, 22K, 18K or 14K, or type the fineness on the hallmark, such as 916 or 750. Add the making charge. Estimate values the gold at our estimate, then adds making and GST. CHECK A SHOP’S QUOTE Run it the other way. Enter the total a shop quoted you, with the weight and purity. The shop’s rate starts at our estimate: change it to the shop’s own, and Estimate shows the making and other charges inside the quote. Leave it at ours, and Estimate shows how far the quote sits above our estimate, before GST. CURRENCIES TOO The US dollar, the dirham, the riyal, the pound and more than a hundred others, each in rupees. Convert between any two. The amount you enter stays fixed; the converted amount updates as rates change. Tap a currency to see its rate in rupees and the whole board in it. YOURS TO ARRANGE Drag the board into your own order and hide what you never look at. No account, no sign-up, no password; your settings stay on your phone. WHAT IT IS NOT Rates are indicative. Currency rates are mid-market prices; gold and silver are our estimate of the Indian rate, before GST. They are not a quote, not a dealer’s buying or selling price, and may differ from what any bank, exchange or jeweller offers. Don’t use the board or the estimate to settle a transaction. Check the hallmark and the shop’s own bill before you buy. IN Forex is free and supported by ads.
