Spotlight Currency conversion issue

After upgrading to Big Sur, Spotlight currency converter looks different.


After entering foreign currency, I only see conversion to my system currency.

When entering my system currency, I can only see conversion to USD via Yahoo.


There are no more multiple currencies displayed anymore, as it used to be in previous OS versions.

Even tried to enter in format "100USD to EUR" which is ignored completely and only offers results from web.


This is a huge step backwards, I'm very disappointed...


This is how it worked in previous OS versions (taken from web):



This is how it looks in Big Sur:


Very, very, very disappointing...

Just after I posted this, I found a solution myself... There is an extra click you must perform in Big Sur spotlight:


  1. hit CMD+Space for Spotlight
  2. enter number and currency
  3. click the arrow to show result in multiple currencies
