We would like to present you our next iPhone app, which many world travelers will surely find very useful. It is called TalkinPics and was made exclusively for Media HRC. TalkinPics is based on a paper book, in original  called “Pokazownik”.

TalkinPics is a set of various images that come in handy while traveling to foreign countries. You don’t have to speak any foreign language, you can just search for a desired image, tap it to enlarge it and show it to someone.

As mentioned at the beginning, TalkinPics is an iPhone version of a book. Application was prepared in close cooperation with Media HRC – we’ve worked together on refining graphics and figuring out the best navigation scheme, so TalkinPics users could have the best experience browsing and using the mobile version of the book on their mobile devices.

For the ease of searching the right image, you will find 6 categories:

• transportation
• food
• accomodation
• hygiene & clothing
• health, safety, leisure
• numbers, colours, weather

The use of TalkinPics does not require Wi-Fi nor any other data transfer (and it also works on other iOS devices, like iPod Touch), so you won’t be surprised by the roaming charges at the end of your trip. All of the content is on your iPhone. We would recommend it to any person that sometimes stumbles upon communication problems while travelling :-)

Code Pilot 1.1.1 was just released. It’s mainly compatibility/bugfix release and includes the following improvements:

Support for Xcode 3.2.4 pre-release

We’ve added support for the latest version of Xcode.

Bug causing crashes when searching inside of a class is fixed

When you pressed space on a class symbol in Code Pilot and started typing your query, you could get a crash. It’s fixed now.

Letter ’s’ is not ignored in search queries anymore

I don’t even know how to comment on that. Apparently use of \s was the last bit of Perl regexp mechanism still in my mind.

You can download the new version directly from here.
