[Poll] Hey Samsung, how about a currency converter in your calculator app?

Poll

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Like everyone else, I was excited for the Android 8.0 Oreo beta, which Samsung finally made available after what seemed like an endless wait. There's a lot of new stuff on Oreo and I like how it is shaping up even with the first beta, but I have to say I'm disappointed to see that one feature still hasn't made its way to Samsung's software. As the title of this article has already revealed, I'm talking about a currency converter.

A calculator app without currency conversion in this day and age? Not cool

It would be extremely handy if Samsung could implement a currency converter in the calculator app, for when you go on a foreign holiday or even when you're just generally trying to see how much a particular currency would translate to into another one. Samsung's calculator app already does length, temperature, mass, and even data conversion, and throwing currency into the mix would make the calculator more useful. Yes, the currency rates won't be up-to-date unless Samsung can pull data off the internet, but again, a basic currency converter wouldn't go amiss.

What do you think? Do you think currency conversion should be a part of the calculator app? Let us know by voting in the poll below and leaving a comment to get a discussion going!

Results: As expected, we saw a majority of votes supporting having currency conversion support in the calculator app. Some voted for the fact that it should be present even if most won't ever need it. Others say there's no need for such a feature, especially since exchange rates keep changing every day.

Would you like to have currency conversion in Samsung's calculator app?
