This skill reads the BDO Forex page to provide the recent exchange rates for a list of supported currencies. It provides the same information with the Flash Briefing version (search for "BDO Forex (Flash Briefing)") and offers additional interaction to convert amount between currencies and be more accurate on the rates by specifying your own. Other currencies can be used too via In-Skill Purchasing.

To know the exchange rates of any currency, just ask, "What's the rate for (currency name)". There are currently 10 supported currencies: - US Dollar (free) - Japanese Yen - Euro - Hong Kong Dollar - Australian Dollar - Singaporean Dollar - Canadian Dollar - British Pound - Swiss Franc - Chinese Yuan
Using the Buy and Sell Rate of any two currencies, you can use them to: - Know how much a certain amount will be worth - Know how much you'll need to obtain a specific amount
To do that, just ask, "How much is (number) point (number) (from currency) in (to currency)?" Examples: - "How much is 500 US Dollars in Japanese Yen?" - "How much is 1000 point 50 Pesos in Chinese Yuan?"
If you have at least one purchased currency, you can have the option to change the Buy and Sell Rate of a currency. This is useful for scenarios when you're already at the bank and the rates had changed and no longer matched the numbers posted on the website. To do that, just say, "Change the (rate type) of (currency) to (number) point (number)" Examples: - "Change the Buy Rate of US Dollar to fifty point twenty five"
You can always reset your changes to the rates by simply saying, "Reset all exchange rates". Note that all changes to the rates are automatically reset every time the skill is relaunched.
Of course, at any time, you can always say the following: - "Help" - "Goodbye"
