Health and safety services company HTH Worldwide is making an iPhone app out of its mPassport service to allow iUsers to find quality healthcare services in twenty top destinations around the world.
Actually, we’re not talking about a single app, but a series of applications, which address the following cities:
- Europe: Barcelona, Budapest, Dublin, Florence, London, Madrid, Paris, Prague, Rome, Vienna
- Africa: Cape Town, Nairobi
- South and Central America: Buenos Aires, Lima, Mexico City, Quito
- China: Beijing, Hong Kong
- Bermuda, Nassau
As for the app’s functionality, it allows users to find an English-speaking doctor or dentist and request an appointment, use mapping functionality to find the shortest route to convenient care, translate brand names for medications and key medical terms and phrases, and understand health risks and access the right emergency services.
The first mPassport iPhone app comments are solid, with one user saying it’s a travel app “every parent, brother or sister would want their family member to have on their iPhone or iPod touch while exploring the world.”
Finally, to grab mPassport apps, simple search for “mPassport” in the AppStore and take it from there.

In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
