ICOON: the perfect iPhone app for travelers

ICOON: the perfect iPhone app for travelers

Often times you find yourself in a foreign country, whether on business or on a pleasure trip, and that’s when you start noticing that you probably can’t communicate with the locals very well, even if you do have some knowledge of the local language. That’s why you should consider having a look at ICOON: this program (previously available only for desktop computers) translates any language into recognizable symbols. So whether you’re in an emergency, looking for a wifi hotspot, or just very hungry, open your iPhone and ICOON comes to the rescue!

ICOON iPhone app offers more than 500 useful symbols structured into twelve common categories — from hygiene to hair styles, money to measurements, health to accommodations. What you do is simply select an appropriate universal sign and show it to the locals. You can use the iPhone’s scroll feature to switch from one symbol to the next and turn your iPhone to enlarge some of the symbols.

ICOON for iPhone is available for 99 cents from the AppStore, which is a rather low price to pay for peace of mind when you’re on the move.
