Dollar-to-peso rates
The currency converter shows the current USD to PHP rate and also converts EUR, JPY, GBP, AUD, CAD, CHF, CNY, HKD and NZD. A rate history chart covers the last week, month or year. With Premium, you can set a target rate. When the rate reaches it, you get an email at your account's email address, even when Kano Konvert is closed.
Free
Free includes 10 translations a day.
Premium
Unlimited translations and unlimited saved phrases, plus USD↔PHP rate target alerts and sync. Premium is $2.99 a month or $19.99 a year, both renewing automatically until you cancel, or $39.99 once for Lifetime. In the Android app, Monthly and Yearly each have a 7-day free trial if you haven't had that plan before. On the web, Yearly has a 7-day free trial for new customers. Lifetime starts with one 7-day free trial per account, on the web and in the Android app (one trial in total, not one in each). No payment method is needed and nothing is charged. When it ends, Premium stops unless you choose to buy Lifetime for $39.99.

How does the dollar-to-peso converter work?
Enter an amount and the converter shows it in pesos at the current USD to PHP rate. It also handles EUR, JPY, GBP, AUD, CAD, CHF, CNY, HKD and NZD, and a chart shows the rate over the last week, month or year. Currency markets close on weekends, so rates refresh again Sunday at 5:00 PM Eastern.
Can I get an alert when the peso hits a certain rate?

Can I hear how a translation sounds?
Yes. Tap Listen under the translation to hear it read aloud.
What if a translation doesn't sound natural?
