Travel Interpreter: The Right App for Travelers Who Value Accuracy and Convenience

Most apps for the iPhone are clever but not essential: games, entertainment and other sundry ways to kill time. But I value my time and money, which is why I want apps that have a clear purpose. Think of an app that serves a specific need, something that may very well be indispensable.

That's exactly the point behind Travel Interpreter from Jourist, which allows users to find 2,100 illustrated phrases and words in 23 languages, including: German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, Swedish, Norwegian, Polish, Czech, Slovakian, Russian, Greek, Hungarian, Turkish, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Hebrew and Thai. Each phrase is from a native speaker of a featured language, followed by user-friendly categories and subtopics. Users can also search by full or partial text, with phonetic characters for Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Greek, Arabic, Hebrew and Thai.

Travel Interpreter is a traveler's ideal companion because it simplifies the way people experience city or country. Imagine never having to fumble for a popular phrase or essential form of expression. Even better, picture the same app with illustrations -- the ultimate example of a user-friendly way to marry the iPhone with truly innovative technology. That's Travel Interpreter.

Here's a thought: high schools and colleges should buy this app for students, inspiring a love for languages and an interest in travel. That's a winning combination! I give Travel Interpreter my highest rating: 5 stars. Get this app!
