Thanks Yohan Riou

They say the best way to learn a new language is to interact with native speakers, but if you don’t have the cash to jet off halfway around the globe, then iOS app YoLanger has you covered.

Like Snapchat for learning languages, YoLanger allows users to practice a foreign language by sending text, photo or video messages through to a random native speaker who will then receive it, leave feedback and help them improve on their skills.

Fair enough.
