iPhone and iPad: Convert currencies to iOS spotlight

With Spotlight on your iPhone and iPad, you can not only find apps and files, but also convert individual currencies into one another. That's how it works:

1. Open the Spotlight search on your iOS device by swiping your finger on the homescreen.
2. Now enter the amount to be converted and the desired target currency, for example "15 euros in dollars".
3. iOS now shows the corresponding value in the foreign currency directly. Of course, this works as often and with all major currencies.
