USEFUL TRAVEL APPS

We have found some of the following apps to be particularly useful while travelling and may also be of use to you:

    - iOverlander - probably the most useful app we have, check it out, especially if you are looking for places to camp.  It's free but you can contribute on their website. 

    - Maps.me - download great maps while you have WiFi and use when you don't.

    - WhatsApp - for a small charge you can sign up and text, phone and video phone friends and families while you are abroad, as long as you have WiFi

    - TripIt - if you do have travel bookings this allows you to quickly save them into one place, with all of your itinery, including booking references in one place for quick recall

    - My altitude - allows you to gauge your elevation above sea level, barometric pressure and coordinates - does not require mobile data to work

     -Sky Guide - a great way to familiasrise yourself with the stars and planets above you - does not require mobile date to work
