It is easy to make a shortcut with this feature.

Thanks, I might look into this. At the moment the currency data is taken from Time Genie.

Thanks for the input. I did originally plan to do something like this, but it was discussed in this thread that it might be unnecessary bloat for a tablet application. But, I'll see how things develop

I've updated the app internally to make it more solid and useable, the update options work very smoothly now and only when requested, otherwise the app will use its local cache of the exchange rates.

Also updated the screenshot on the first post, nation flags are now displayed next to the currency.
