Let’s say you’ve just landed on home soil and happened to meet a charming partner during your stay abroad — yet your unrequited love is separated by a nasty language barrier. Sure, it didn’t seem to matter in the moment, but now that you’ve moved onto — you know — communication, you could use a bit of an assist. Thankfully, the folks at MyLanguage seem to have a worthwhile solution with the new Vocre 2.0 app for iOS. The software allows two individuals to engage in video chats in their native tongues, and the app removes the language barrier by providing translations (both text and spoken) on-the-fly. While Vocre 2.0 is currently in private beta, it’ll debut as a free, ad-supported application. Further, users may take advantage of paid, premium services that include on-demand human translation.

Slice, an online shopping organizer, made its way to Android today. If you do any or all of your money spending online, this is an app you should probably download immediately. All it takes is an email address that you send most of your online receipts to and it starts going to work. And what I mean by “work†is that it scans recent purchases and then grabs all of the important information out of them including tracking numbers. So once that email arrives in your inbox, Slice begins tracking its progress including when it will arrive on your doorstep. You can add up to 5 email accounts, in case you use more than one. It will tell you how many items you have purchased online over the years and how much you have spent (Yikes!). Again, an amazing tool for those that spend their days shopping over this wonderful thing called the Internet.
