Exchanger 1.3.0.0

A smooth currency conversion utility you can enjoy onto your Windows Phone handset
Money move around a lot and they are of different kinds, mainly depending on the country they are circulating in. Anyone interested in knowing the exchange rates for one currency or another can enlist the help of a specialized utility like Exchanger.

This nice looking and easy to use application will make it a breeze to carry out monetary conversions involving several currencies in the same time.

Clean graphics and convenient layout

This app has a really appealing GUI, with crisp graphics that make it appealing and also easy to work with. Moving around the application and going through the long list of currencies is done without a single glitch or delay.

The functions and commands can be revealed in a neat manner, so for the numeric keypad you have to swipe up or tap the screen, to add currencies you have to pull down and release the existing list, while the swipe to the right removes the selected item.

In order to rearrange the entries on the main list you just have to tap and hold a currency for a coupe of moments and the commands for moving it up or down will promptly appear.

When you tap on an entry from the currency list to have it used as the base currency, the one that is being replaced will be sent in the spot previously occupied by the newcomer, so this may also serve as a means of reordering the items inside the main list.

Pick the currencies and carry out the conversions on the fly

The transformations this app carries out are done without any delay, so it takes only a few moments to view how much of your money are worth the currencies from different countries.

Unfortunately, there is no indication with regard to the exchange rate update times, so you cannot be sure that Exchanger is really able to keep you up to date with all the values you are interested in.

From the list of available monetary systems you can easily find the ones you wan to use, but there are many currencies missing. The built-in search function makes it easier to locate a specific currency, especially since the query is carried out as you type.

A noticeable drawback insofar as the exact value of the conversion is concerned is the lack of decimals for the output, so the results will be very inaccurate for smaller numbers.
