| 2022-01-10 |  | | I used this app for almost 3 years. Really enjoyed the experience, the simplicity, the features, and its clean design. At least until the introduced these ads at startup. I want to appreciate your work by purchasing any kind of subscription; simply because I don't want to see the ads. I don't even understand what the ads is telling me since it's displayed in Chinese. Please let me get rid of these nonsense ads. I'll pay. But, please, not like this. Uninstalled! |
| 2021-12-11 |  | | It works fine, but is extremely bloated. 66MB app size is ridiculous for a currency converter (all I use it for). User data + cache brings it to 160MB for me. I switched to another app which has a total of 22MB currently. Constant notifications about their privacy policy as well, which leads me to believe that they're probably harvesting tons of data. |
| 2021-10-07 |  | | Used this app for years and was great. Absolutely disappointing it wants my location and photos permissions. I find this completely unnecessary for me to simply look up an exchange rate. |
| 2021-02-08 |  | | The app is getting worse and worse with every update. It is way too complicated, requesting too many permissions and consuming too much battery. I just wanted an app to show me the exchanges, period. Moreover every now and then I get an annoying popup message in chinese about updating the app, which I really, really hate. |
| 2020-11-17 |  | | Was working fine, but recently it can't be launched from the edge panel or as a mini window on my Galaxy S9+ Edit: Thanks for your reply. When shopping online, I usually compare prices from different countries. By having a mini window floating above, it's easy to switch from different websites and always have xCurrency available on my screen. The app used to work just fine before the other features like sending money were added, and xCurrency mini also works fine now. |
| 2020-11-04 |  | | This has gotten worse after 13 months. It's got the wrong currency for the country I need and if you try to contact the developer in the app they try to force you to give your phone number before submission. You cannot give your email. I cannot POSSIBLY give a lower rating. Update: I should still have the option of whether you contact me after feedback. Or do what other apps do and open an email. I don't want you calling my phone and I shouldn't have to give it for feedback. |
| 2020-08-26 |  | | 😓 I don't understand why all the recent changes on this app made it so much worse. What happened to the all dark theme? Now only the number pad is dark and then the currency pane is blinding white! Why??? And why when going back or closing the app, instead of the app simply closing immediately and directly like before, now goes first back to the Cross-border Financial Services and Account Settings page that I NEVER USE? And why on top of that instead of the app getting closed with 1 tap of the back button it needs to be 2 taps??? You want to add new features to the app? Fine, put it on separate panes or under the app's settings. But the function that the user uses the most (THE ACTUAL CURRENCY CONVERSATION) should be default or at least have the app remember the last function used and go there next time directly, IN and OUT. |
| 2020-07-19 |  | | I love this app because its clean and minimal. But since the latest update more unnecessary features has been added which significantly slows the app boot time. There is a default page option but that doesn't fix the fact that now we have to wait for that page to be loaded which takes almost triple the time. Please change it back, and leave those feature to a separate app for people who actually uses them, don't ruin a good app please Updated rating: boot speed has been improved with update 👍 |
| 2020-06-22 |  | | (- We've added international remittance! Send money to China easily from Australia, Japan and Europe. ....) one of things thatt I do not need. Also you've added ADVERTISEMENTS without alert. That was a great daily use of it before this update. Anyway thanks for that time. |
| 2020-06-20 |  | | This app has everything I need from a currency converter and many more. Besides very clear and simple interface allowing you to calculate the currency you need in seconds, it has a great market section, where I can see an exchange rate of specific currency, which is also very important. The only complain is that I can see the exchange rate only for 3 past years and not further, but it's alright. There's also HUGE amount of currencies, even crypto ones. I am completely satisfied with this app. |
