Elk will automatically update the exchange rate table online, even if you are offline, you can use the previous exchange rate value; it will also get the geographical location information, automatically select the local currency and the popular exchange currency for you; other currencies and set the custom exchange rate All of them can be set by clicking on the top currency name of Elk. Elk offers a two-week full-featured free trial. After the trial, the app will only open the function of converting popular currency to local currency for free, and pay $25 to unlock all currencies and custom exchange rates.

Do not believe all the “rave” reviews and after my experience with the app and the support (none existing), I question the legitimacy of the so called “awards.” The UI was poorly designed, the UX was also lacking. Features are almost none other than pick your currency and go with it. The 14 days free trial was just a click-bait to get you into paying them now but charge later scam. Some reviewers mentioned this might even be a subscription based service!!!!! What’s more frustrating, was the support which is none. I sent them an email requesting clarification on the purchase (I don’t want subscribe to a currency converter), there was zero responses. I’m concerned they may even forwarded my email address to spammers. All in all, poor product, poor support, and questionable recognitions.

What the app has done, it has done well (Except the lock screen implementation is not live.) However it is still not my go to converter app since it lacks multiply currencies. There is lots of room on the display unused, why not create additional columns for additional currencies. An auto font resizing based on the amount of currencies being converted would be the best emplementation. The app also provided CAD to me for free but did not provide it to my friend, go figure. For me I still prefer to use the app called Converter+, includes multiply currencies and converts anything to anything.
