App - Word Lens

We can't think of a single app that for all intents and purposes is as simple and yet obviously so complex as Word Lens. The future truly is now...and even as we type this we are absolutely flabbergasted that we are alive to see something from the realm of science fiction actually become a reality. With the app open, you simply point the camera to a foreign language sign, look to the the screen of your iPhone as it shows you the translation. See what we mean by simple? That being said, whatever magic you have to download to get this to work is obviously complicated. Regardless...the iPhone has now become "the" essential piece of kit for travel. Of course, available in the app store in iTunes.
