Hi, thanks for the good suggestions both to you and to everyone who has helped me out here. I’m not entirely certain of the syntax when asking to convert currency and i don’t know of the functions availability here, but i could check that out. I ended up with the Oanda currency converter, an app that i thought was inaccessible but it turns out it’s very good accessibility wise. So Currency converter by Oanda.com is a recommendation from me in case someone is out hunting for currency converters. Again, thanks all. /Krister
