Welcome to Indie App Spotlight. It's a weekly 9to5Mac series where we showcase the latest apps in the indie app world. If you're a developer and would like to have your app featured, get in touch.
Currency is a completely free, ad-free currency converter app for iPhone and Mac with a clean design and offline functionality. It supports over 160 currencies, making it an easy-to-use tool for any international travel.
Key Features
With Currency, you can convert between dozens of currencies, all at a glance. With its easy-to-understand interface, you can simply add the currencies you want to a list, enter the amount you want in your default currency, and it will automatically convert to all listed currencies at the latest market rate.
Currency supports over 160 currencies and receives data from 15 different exchange rate providers, keeping the data as accurate as possible. It also receives rates every hour, allowing the app to work accurately, even when offline.
The app also supports iCloud Sync, allowing you to keep your currency list consistent across your iPhone and Mac.
Learn more about Currency
As mentioned earlier, Currency is completely free. There are no ads, subscriptions, or in-app purchases. What you see is what you get, and everything is available immediately after downloading.
The developer has also put a lot of thought into the design, making it feel as native as possible. Smaller details, like the country flags listed next to the currency icons, have also been redrawn to fit into the square shape, similar to the app icon on the home screen.
It also has a really nice (and fast) Mac app.
Download Currency
Currency is available completely free on the App Store for iPhone and Mac running iOS 17/macOS Sonoma and later. Unfortunately, there are no native iPad or Apple Vision apps yet, but hopefully the developer will get around to them.
