Description:Tired of launching the OS X Calculator app and stepping through menu paths or launching the fullscreen OS X Dashboard just for doing a simple currency conversion? Here's the solution:
"Exchange Rates" is a small currency calculator residing in the OS X status bar – always available and always up to date. Nothing more, nothing less.
Everything can be done using keyboard shortcuts, so you can easily convert an amount between two currencies without interrupting your current workflow by using the mouse or even launching another window-based application.
All exchange rates are being updated continuously in the background, so you don't have to do anything about it. In addition, the fixed exchange rates of all euro predecessor currencies are available, such as the Austrian Shilling or German Mark.
• All foreign exchange rates & currencies in your menu bar
• always available, always up-to-date
• No more annoying fiddling with the OS X Calculator just to do a simple currency conversion
• All major, world-wide currencies are available (and even more)
• The fixed exchange rates for all Euro predecessor currencies are available as well
• Everything can be done using keyboard shortcuts to avoid interrupting your workflow.
• Add favourites (accessible with keyboard shortcuts) for frequently used conversions
• Keeps a history of all most recently used currencies (can be deactivated)
• Data Minimization: no unnecessary data collection (e.g. user tracking)
If you find a bug in this app, please report it to the bug tracker so I can fix it as soon as possible. You can find a link to the bug tracker on the support website.
