Recently I read about some apps which may be useful as you travel. Check these out and let me know if you’ve tried any of them.
Memrise: According to users, Memrise lets you learn about different languages and cultures on-the-go with classes on a broad variety of topics in over 200 languages.
WiFi Map
WiFi Map highlights hotspots around your current location and provides the password. Is this something you would use? Of course, remember to be careful what data you access while using public WiFi.
MyPanda
MyPanda measures the security of an area using GPS. I learned the app was founded as a response to the horrific 2015 Paris terrorist attacks, and alerts users to any threats of violence in their immediate area. In select cities (like New York City and Los Angeles) the app locates the nearest police station and gives you the fastest way to get there and the option to call authorities with one tap.
UnTappd
Are you a beer drinker? Try this app to connect you with the best local brews, bars, breweries, and other drinking venues nearby. It says it also gives opinions on the local beers.
OpenTable
I’ve used this app quite a lot. You can make your reservations ahead of time at the restaurant of your choice or check out reviews to try a new one. It lets you search by location, time, or type of cuisine.
