Very invasive full screen ads. After every second operation. Impossible to use
Obtrusive ads. Deleted it after the first full page video ad with sound. I know ads help support the app but auto play full screen ads with sound isn't worth it.
paid app
Your latest update has a bug it crashes and crashes we cannot use it why. Fix it asap.
Ive been using this app for years and Im pretty sure I already supported the developer financially by paying to remove ads. In a recent update they added this swipe to remove currency feature which is highly annoying because it doesn't ask for confirmation it just removes it. So I remember this app had widgets maybe they dont hace the delete issue but now those are behind a paywall... That wasnt how it used to be! Again i PAID MONEY to this app already paid users should not be bait and switched
it's not free
paid wall
can no longer add currency
Review Update (March 2026): I previously gave this app a high rating, but I am forced to revise it. I sent multiple emails to Digitalchemy support because features were removed from my "lifetime subscription". no response, ignored for months. no support. I will restore my original positive rating once the team acknowledges my tickets and provides a resolution. Until then, be aware that support unresponsive to multiple emails. reloading app did nothing.
Persistent prompts for in-app subscription.
I'm specifically looking for an app with a widget, and for this app you need to upgrade to pro to be able to use the widget, which is quite annoying.
ads at the bottom would be one thing but ads that pop up while you're in a store where you don't speak the language well and need to convert numbers quickly = instant anxiety spike. no thank you.
After paying for an ad-free experience, I started to have a lower limit to the number of currencies. When I deleted a currency, I still wasn't able to add any more. I'm just told I've reached my limit. I never had a limit before and now I can't add a currency when I travel. This only happened after I paid for ad-free, which is ridiculous.
