Veganagogo provides the modern vegan traveller with a 50 language travel translation app that will help remove the hassle and uncertainty from ordering vegan food when travelling overseas.
Helsinki-based, Agogo Apps is pleased to announce the launch of Veganagogo, a travel translation app for vegans, available on the iOS platform.
Following on from the success of Veggoagogo - the company's 50 language vegetarian travel translation app for both the iOS and Android platforms - a vegan version was always planned as a follow-up release.
Veganagogo aims to provide the modern vegan traveller with an app that lends confidence to a situation that has filled vegans with dread for decades; ordering vegan food on the road.
As well as defining what a vegan is, Veganagogo addresses many of the needs that the travelling vegan faces on a daily basis, from locating a restaurant that serves vegan fare, to choosing suitable items from the menu, down to thanking the chef, waiter, concierge, market-stall holder or friendly local.
Veganagogo is intuitive and easy to use. The user simply chooses a question or statement from those on offer, then selects from one of 50 languages available before tapping the translate button and being presented with their translation.
The translation screen text has been optimised to be displayed at distance. It can be flicked between night and day modes, making the text easy to read in all lighting conditions.
Veganagogo enlisted the drawing talents of Australian illustrator, Cat MacInnnes to create a range of animal icons, that add to the usability of the app, whilst maintaining its simplicity.
Users can tap the animal and animal product icons atop the translation screen and be presented with full screen versions which can be swiped and used as a visual backup to the translated message.
Users are encouraged to spice up their Veganagogo experience to match the flavour of their current destination with one of the many preset colour themes on offer.
Paul Dodson, founder of Agogo Apps had this to say, "Often when travelling abroad it's hard to get across exactly what a vegan will and will not eat. In many countries it's a loosely defined concept where vegan dishes may still include fish or seafood. With Veganagogo we aimed to do two things: one, to define very clearly what a vegan won't eat and two, to offer a range of questions that travelling vegans face on a daily basis. In version 1.0 of Veganagogo, we do this in 50 languages.
"Veganagogo has been designed with simplicity and usability in mind. The interface is uncluttered and hopefully, aesthetically pleasing. All of our translations have been professionally completed by native language speakers".
