Pocket Express

I came across an app and if you are a travel freak like I am, you will find it useful. It is not a finished product yet, but it isn't a half-baked cake either. At best, I will describe it as an app intending to be a one-stop-shop for Travel.

It has 9 mini-apps furled into the main app; News, Sports, Weather, Finance, Entertainment, Movies, Travel, Horoscopes and Assist. Of these, Entertainment, Horoscope and Assist are rudimentary. I don't use it for finance; there is Bloomberg. 

It is a good app for travel - native services for iPhone aren't ready yet and one gets directed to its web app, which I would say is pretty good. It has flight status, flight schedules, currency convertors under one tab. I haven't come across any app in the appstore that is this travel friendly. And the good part is, this app comes for free. In the end, this is a good app for travel, not perfect by any means but is useful. And has some bonus functionalities in the same window. Worth giving a try!
