CurrencyWatch

CurrencyWatch quietly watches exchange rates for you and sends a notification the moment a pair crosses a threshold you set — all on your device, with no account and no tracking. WHY CURRENCYWATCH • Three independent rate sources, one trustworthy answer. Every check queries Frankfurter (European Central Bank reference rates), ExchangeRate-API, and Currency-API in parallel, then combines them with a consensus rule so a single bad reading can't trigger a false alert. • Truly private. There are no accounts, no sign-up, and no servers operated by us. The only thing ever sent over the network is the currency codes for the pair you're watching — never any personal data, device ID, or identifier. • Alerts that live on your phone. Notifications are generated and shown locally by the app. No SMS, no remote push, no third parties. HOW IT WORKS 1. Add a currency pair (for example USD → EUR), set a threshold, and choose a direction (above or below). 2. CurrencyWatch checks the pair against every enabled source on a schedule you control. 3. When the sources agree the threshold is crossed, you get a local notification with the rate, the threshold, and which sources triggered. BUILT-IN GUARDRAILS • Consensus modes — require any one source, a majority, or all sources to agree before alerting. • Disagreement warning — cards flag when sources diverge by more than 0.5%. • Auto-bump — after an alert fires, the threshold can step in your chosen direction so you keep getting fresh signals as a trend continues. • Cooldown and a cap on how far auto-bump can drift, so you're never spammed. WHAT IT DOESN'T DO (on purpose) • No analytics, ads, or behavioral tracking. • No phone numbers, no contacts, no location. • No backend and no cloud sync — your watchlist stays on your device. CurrencyWatch is a focused utility for travelers, freelancers paid in foreign currencies, and anyone who wants to act on a rate without staring at a chart all day.
