Currency Converter

The main purpose of the currency converter application is to enable users to convert currencies between each other. This is especially useful for travelers who are in different countries in the world are wondering what the price in the foreign value is in their local currency (and vice versa).

Other features that this application has inbuilt is the ability for users to update the most current exchange rate for a host of currencies automatically whenever they have internet access and the ability for users to add their own currencies as well as update exchange rates manually when no internet access is available. Also there is an option to add custom currencies. Furthermore, it has the ability to do simple calculations, including adding tax (VAT) and tip.

NOTE: Custom currencies will not receive the exchange rate update from the Internet, so the rates have to be adjusted manually. Also the Euro cannot be removed or edited, as it is the base currency.
