your app appears in 'other' ... would it not make more sense for it to appear in 'office' or 'learn&science' ??

I see your point, but according to the guidelines from the development wiki, is should put this app to utilities and there it is. It seems that MY Menu is missing that. Maybe the developer of My Menu should add that.

For me Currency converter is under Learn&Science with MyMenu.
Sasler your welcome, as I voted for the app, then thought to do a bit more thorough usability test, including the bells and whistles.

Currency Converter is now available in Extras. Here is the Download page. Please review it.
I will start working on the update as soon as possible. In the mean time, please post here any improvement suggestions you may have.
Once again, thank you for your support and votes.

Excellent work on this application. It is easy to use, and does what it is meant to do without too much end-user tweaking. I even found the tip and tax calculator more useful than I thought it would be.
In terms of UI improvement, there really isn't anything I would change--it is clean and functional.
In terms of added functionality, perhaps the addition of alternative currency rate sources could be explored. For example, other applications use sources like the IMF or the Bank of Canada. I think that the available currencies using the ECB source will be adequate for most people (it is for me), but perhaps offering an alternative may improve coverage for users who need a currency not covered by ECB.
Also, you should consider adding some very basic conversions for situations a traveler may encounter: for example, basic imperial to metric measurement, clothing/shoe size, and temperature. I do realize that other applications exist for measurement conversion, but it would be nice to have the basic conversions a traveler would need all in a single application--if simplicity can be maintained. Again, the beauty of your application is its simplicity--if additional conversion capability introduces too much bloat, then it may not be worth it.

This looks great. I don't think I'll bother implementing currency conversions for Gonvert after seeing this.

I will start working on this as soon as I can.
