Travel apps help ease headaches for the tech-savvy

August 10 2011

Traveling, whether for business or pleasure, always contain unexpected travel woes or expenses that can put a real damper on your trip. Luckily, new smartphone apps aim to help travelers save money and account for the unexpected. Here are some of our favorites:

1. TravelTracker Pro. Meant to be a personal travel assistant, this app streamlines reservations, expenses, awards programs, directions, and even weather. The $9.99 is a good investment for those looking to avoid travel frustrations and headaches.

2. Currency. For those traveling abroad, a good currency converter is vital. Currency contains over 100 countries’ currencies with the most up to date exchange rates to make sure you’re getting the best rate.

3. Taxi Magic. Can’t hail a cab? No need! Instead, Taxi Magic allows users to request one by simply typing in their location. Not only can one hail a taxi using the app, but users can also track the arrival of the taxi. The app is also good for those who carry little cash as you can charge the fee directly to your card.
