  2. Google Maps: as the long time reigning champion of navigation apps, Google maps is a travel must-have. Navigate new cities, download maps for offline use, and check the hours for restaurants and attractions. 
  3. PackPoint: if you’re already a list maker or wish you were, this app is great tool for any trip. By plugging in your destination and potential activities, PackPoint generates a list of what to bring. It takes the weather forecast into account and allows you to edit the list and share it!
  4. XE Currency: if you’re traveling internationally, this can be a great tool for some added financial security. The app updates constantly with exchange rates and if you’re shutting down data and roaming on your trip, you can download rates to use offline later. 
  5. Google Trips: this app is great for an easy, organized, and accessible itinerary. Connected to your email, it automatically pulls reservations for a trip into an itinerary where you can add other reservations and make the most of suggested activities, eateries and more. You can store the itinerary offline for access. 
  6. Trip Advisor: You can view the opinions of millions of users to confidently choose destinations, accommodations and activities. Review data is summarized and organized in a navigable format and full reviews are available. You can find details for any country, making the app great for all travelers. 
  7. Google Translate: when traveling to a country or region with a language different than your own, Google Translate can give you the ability to engage with locals and find your way around much easier! Essential for any international travel.
