“The era of carrying around large city maps has been phased out and it’s been shown that 80% of travellers use their mobile devices for online booking, so the time has never been better for an app,” says Cheapflights global head of communication and PR, Phil Bloomfield.
Cheapflights – Flight Search
The easiest way to book flights from hundreds of airlines is just a swipe away. With approximately five million downloads to date, the
Cheapflights app allows searches for the best deals, along with comparison and booking of flights, from more than 700 airlines and travel providers in seconds.
Results can be filtered by the quickest flight, cheapest flight or a happy medium between the two. The app also shows any hidden checked baggage and seat reservation fees before the booking and there’s even a price calendar that shows which days are the cheapest to fly on.
Photo Translator
If there has ever been any confusion of the meaning of a sign in a foreign country, the photo translator has changed that. With
this app, a photo can be taken of any signage or text with the phone camera and directly translated into 25 languages.
Sunscreen Reminder
With the current state of global warning and unanticipated heat waves, the
sunscreen reminder app is a lifesaver. The Sunscreen Reminder app ensures that the skin is protected by sending auto reminders or allowing manual reminders on when to re-apply sunscreen.
Cost Split
Travelling with friends? The Cost Split app helps
keep track of group expenses by allowing budgets to be set for each trip, allocating names to the budget, and keeping track of who spends what. Receipts can be recorded by photo, and expenses can be split evenly or unevenly. It also includes payback reports and tracks in multiple currencies. Buying a round at the bar has never been easier.
World Currency Converter
Using real time exchange rates, the
World Currency Converter has over 150 different types of currencies to choose from. Easily convert any amount of money from one currency to another with a simple swipe, browse exchange rates and swap easily between currencies.
