Story flagged by: RominaZ

Vocre is a new app for your iPhone that lets you speak in one language and hear what you said translated into another. It’s like a having a babel fish in your phone.

The idea is very simple—you select your gender and the gender of the person you’re speaking with, along with your native language and theirs. Then your turn your iPhone upside down, say what you want to say, and Vocre will recognize it almost instantly. If the text looks right to you, just flip the phone on its side and it will actually speak what you said to the person you’re talking to in their language.
