Frommers Travel Tools App

Since 1957 when Arthur Frommer published the book, Europe on $5 a Day, the Frommer's name has been synonymous with travel. People turn to the company's bestselling guidebooks for vacation and travel tips and advice. Today, the company has published over 350 books across fourteen series, and covers over 3,500 specific destinations on their website, and now they're adding an iPhone app to the mix.

Frommer's Travel Tools is an application for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch and is being called a "9-in-1 travel companion." Former apps from Frommers were simply the mobile versions of their guidebooks but this one offers travelers a number of tools, including a tip calculator, packing list, postcards, currency converter, unit converter, time translator, travel trivia, city guides flashlight, and an "apps we love" feature. Best of all, the app is free!

Gadling.com calls it "surprisingly comprehensive" compared to other travel apps.
