If you travel a lot, this 99 cent application might just save your day. Icoon is offering an iPhone/iPod Touch version of their best selling global picture dictionary.
It’s basically a bunch of drawings classified into 12 categories. Line drawn icons that will address basic things that you need to communicate while traveling. An image can communicate a lot of things and can transcend language barriers. So if you can’t say bathroom in Chinese, you just pop-up your iPhone and show them the icon of the bathroom.
Sure you can technically take pictures/draw the icons that are found in Icoon but seriously for 99 cents, why go through the hassle. Just download this baby and save yourself the trouble.
Check out Icoon’s web site here and the buy the app here.
