Travel is pleasure and passion for many. But planning a travel, starting with booking flights for a bargain to getting an exciting itinerary in place - is not for everyone. The advent of travel apps has revolutionised the way you travel by taking care of every little detail. Right from booking a hotel to splitting the bills, the apps have covered it all. The playstore is infested with apps, and so we have compiled a list of the best apps.
Citymapper
Move over google maps, city mapper is here to stay. With this award-winning app, you can navigate your way through a new city like a breeze. Be it subway, rail, bus, ferry or Uber – city mapper has got it all. And in the very unlikely event of not finding something, you can always do a deep search.
Duolingo
The best way to get the most out of a new city is by asking people. Use this language-learning app to learn the language of the country you are travelling to, and interact with the natives like a pro. Your interaction with the locals could help you get a lot of useful information like the closest restaurant or the shortest route to an attraction.
Splittr
If you are travelling with friends, you cannot be sloppy with finance management. Splittr makes you money-smart by telling you who has to pay whom for what. All you have to do is key in the expenses as you go. This app has a great user interface, and it supports all currencies. You can even mix currencies, which is really helpful if you are travelling to more than one country in one trip. At this point we say, bye bye excel sheets.
Instagram
Instagram is one of the most popular travel apps, especially among the lovers of social media. This is not surprising, because travellers love to take innumerable pictures and share it with all their friends and followers. What better way to do it than post it on Instagram? You can use Instagram to post pictures to a variety of platforms like Flickr, Tumblr, Twitter.
Trip It
This itinerary platform helps you to integrate and organise all your travel plans. You can just feed your emails with travel information, details of air ticket, hotel addresses etc and Trip It will neatly lay it all out for you.
