Astute Currency Analyzer

Astute Currency Analyzer is a straightforward and approachable software solution that gives you the possibility to calculate exchange rates without resorting to a web browser.

It features support for 35 currencies and shows the exchange rates for all of them with respect to any preferred currency. The tool comes in handy for those who frequently travel to foreign countries with different monetary units.

Following a fast installation that doesn't imply any software requirements, you're welcomed by a small window that cannot be resized.

You can enter the amount of money you want to convert, then browse two lists to select the source and destination currency by taking a look at the acronyms. The conversion is performed on the spot (up to four digits), so there's no need to click any buttons.

Moreover, you can check out a table with all the exchange rates (including acronym meanings) matched against one unit of any favorite currency. You can set this preference from the options menu of Astute Currency Analyzer.

It's also possible to modify the default source and output currency shown at program startup, as well as the default checkup frequency for the latest rates.

Evidently, an Internet connection must be active to be able to get the most recent exchange rates. The good news is that, if you go offline, you'll still be able to use this application and convert money using the last known rates.

It would've been a great help if the app displayed the country name or flag to be able to spot currencies quicker. Nevertheless, although Astute Currency Analyzer doesn't have an appealing interface, it's convenient to use even if you are temporarily offline. It hasn't been updated for a long time but the currency readings were accurate in our tests and it worked smoothly on Windows 10.
