Thing Twenty-Two: Discovering Apps

I googled "best travel destination free apps"

CNN Travel has a great article, November 2013, which they continually update.They give screenshots and a couple paragraphs of details for each app.

Another great article is from Time Out Travel. They organize their apps according to topic: Plan, Navigate, Explore, Communicate, and Document.

Gadgets & Tech lists 10 best travel apps. There is overlap with the two previous articles, but serious travelers will appreciate knowing they haven't overlooked those apps which are most highly recommended.

USA Today has a reassuring article entitled, "Can destination apps take the place of guidebooks?" They simply caution tourists to bring their charger along each day, as using apps all day tends to drain the smartphone battery. :)
