Show HN: iOS location based traveler's currency conversion with tax estimations
smartercurrency.appI've made this app a while ago and now updated it with responsive UI and nice widgets.
Why did I make it?
During my travels to the US and Canada, I wanted to see prices in my currency. however, in both countries, prices are shown BEFORE tax. which adds more confusion.
This conversion apps uses location and locale to try and automatically provide estimations closer to what you'll pay based on your location. It's limited (since tax differs between products) but it's good enough to get a better estimation.
It also includes nice overview of tipping customs (I do hope to make this into an open wiki based if enough demand exists), and Tax Free information.
While I do hope to introduce Android release, It's written in SwiftUI and benefits from Apple's frameworks. so it targets iDevices (iPhone, iPads/Apple Silicon and Apple Watch)
