Some useful apps for those who love to travel!

Today I am here with a new topic i.e. Useful apps for travelling. Today I will tell you about latest apps which will make your travelling experience more fun filled and enjoying. People of all age ranging from a student to a pensioner love to travel. If you have a smartphone or a tablet, then there are certain apps which can be really helpful during travelling. But one quality that an app should have is that, it should be able to work offline also. You may need apps for currency conversion, contact home or for translation purposes.

Packing and Arrangements: Before commencing your trip, you have to consider your to-do list. This includes flight tickets, hotel booking and car hiring. There is always a chance to forget important things during packing. In such case ‘TripIt Travel Organiser’ App can be very useful for you. This app will help you organize your vacations. It is very useful in making the packing list. It also shows the forward important mails. Your important emails automatically get connected to this app. The information about the emails coming to the Gmail inbox automatically gets added to the TripIt schedule. Even during the travel it keeps you connected to the important information. After installing this app you can manage your app very easily and in a hassle free manner.

Contact at home: It is very important to stay in contact with your family and friends. For this you can use SkyPe or WhatsApp. You can also use ‘Tango’. It gives facilities for free video calls, voice calls and texts. This app also contains channels. You can also stay connected to the world of news. You can even find songs and share them. This is a very Useful app for travelling.

Currency Convertor: To covert currency you can use XE Currency. This app can convert any currency throughout the world. This way you can save yourself from spending more money in some other country. This app can work offline. So even if you don’t have an internet connection you can still convert currency anywhere which is a very Useful app for travelling.

Translation: When you go to a different country, the biggest problem you face is the language. You can use apps like ‘Google Translate’ or ‘Word Lens’ to get rid of this problem. Google translate can be very helpful at a foreign destination. It can translate even in offline mode. In this app, if you speak anything in the microphone, then you can see its translation on the screen. This way even in a foreign country you can understand the language of a stranger very easily. If you wish to use this app in offline mode, then you will have to download its language package. In the same way Word Lens is an augmented reality translation app. It means that when you open the app and point the text you want to translate, you will get the translation on the screen. So you will be saved from typing long and difficult sentences. This way you can translate menus, signs and labels. This app is also available offline.


Memories: This is the most important part of the trip. In a trip there are memories which stay with you forever. To save them in the form of your views, photos and videos, you usually use Facebook and evernote. You can also use Free Vacation General. This app documents the journey in the form of images, videos, audio recordings and texts. It can also sync all the trip related data to the website which you can also share with your family and friends. This app has great feature of logging weather, altitude, longitude, latitude, time and date. You can cover your whole trip through GPS.
