Whether it's the holidays or not, travel stress is a very real thing. From planning, to the travel itself, we just can't help but get stressed when we are travelling. Thank you to technology, brands and developers are making travelling easier for everyone. Here are top applications that we recommend you use in your next travel.
Various Airline Apps
Most airlines have their own applications; download it and you get to book easier (with promos!) and you can also get to check-in online.
Google Maps
You already know what Google Maps is and the good thing about it is that you can download it and it can still function offline. It is one of the most updated map so that's great just make sure you download it a week before the trip not a year before as it is updated often.
TripAdvisor
A famous website for travelers, TripAdvisor now has an app for easier mobile use. They rank restaurants, bars, hotels, and sights.
Localeur
If you want to steer clear of the tourist traps this app is for you. Localeur surveys locals for "Miami's awesomely authentic taqueria's" or "Portland's 4 best photo booth bars"
AirBnb
Nothing can be more diverse than Airbnb. Book castles, watchtowers, vans, sofas, anything that will fit your budget, Airbnb has it.
Google Translate
The famous translation app has an awesome new feature that lets you hold the mobile device between two people speaking a different language and you can listen as it translates the conversation live. It still has room for improvement but it's better than scouring the dictionary for every word.
TripIt
This app is easy, hotels, reservations, rentals, they send you an email and TripIt recognizes the email and automatically adds it to your calendar complete with sorting it out in chronological order with maps for navigation.
Gas Buddy
If you're in for a road trip this is the app for you. Gas Buddy keeps you updated with the cheapest gas stations in your area wherever you are.
