Currency DJ fetches the latest available reference rates from Frankfurter. They are not streaming trading quotes.
- Connect to the internet before your trip.
- Select the currencies you expect to use and refresh rates when available.
- Check the displayed rate status and date.
- Offline, use pairs covered by snapshots already saved on the device.
A cached snapshot can support direct or cross-currency conversion through its base. A currency pair with no suitable snapshot may be unavailable offline.
Stale or unavailable
Cached rates are marked stale after 14 days. Reconnect and refresh before treating old data as current. If a conversion is unavailable, check your connection, selected currencies, and refresh allowance.
Pro expands offline preparation to source, target, favorites, and recent currencies, up to 12 bases. It does not make rates update while disconnected. Current card or checkout charges can include different rates and fees.
