The Reason Why You Should Take Your iPhone Abroad And Some Apps That Prove it
This article has travel apps that are primarily used for the iPhone. The iPhone is a great device to take on holiday, because you can fill it with apps that make your life easier. The days of carrying around a map and a translation book are over. You can find out anything you like with your iPhone-just so long as you fill it with the right apps. Here are a few iPhone apps that you may wish to try.
Waze
This is what is known as a social browser, because you can post onto it, and read other’s posts, but cannot respond directly to each other’s messages. In a way it allows you to interact with other motorists who use it to report traffic conditions, but also the presence of cameras or works. This app makes your life easier by keeping you out of a traffic situation that could potentially give you a more stressful day.
TRavelAlarm
This is good for if you are likely to fall asleep on the train and miss your stop. With this app, the danger is averted; the iPhone can set the alarm to sound at a reasonable time upon arrival, or a few miles before. Travel Alarm, in fact, is not a simple alarm clock. It is set through Google maps and accelerometer. There is also the possibility of using the vibration function on your phone too, if you do not want to disturb other people.
Blink Booking
With Blink you can book a hotel room for the same day, at the last minute, taking advantage of great deals and super discounts. Blink operates in 39 cities in Europe and it will show you the four best deals for that night. You can then book your hotel in less than a minute, without closing the app. In addition, you could find yourself in a luxury hotel whilst paying for a two star. If you are planning a trip to Europe then this is the app you should take with you.
Kayak
The application includes all the functionality of a travel agency website. It gives comparisons of offers on air travel, hotels and car rentals. You can check flight punctuality and baggage charges. You can also make hotel reservations at the last minute. The best thing about Kayak is that updates and makes information available immediately, which is drawn from hundreds of different travel sites. The app is free and is more reminiscent of the comparison sites you see for car insurance (at least in the way it is set up).
