A great list of Apps that most never talk about especially in terms of how volatile the world has become in the last few years. Safeture and Travel Safe are great additions to have while in a foreign country and I think Like a local is great because they have the best knowledge without doubt. Thanks

A useful review of some interesting apps. I regularly use the XE currency converter and Gas Buddy and think those are excellent inclusions. Too bad restaurant finder is only available for Android because would be great to find a restaurant quickly when arriving tired and hungry after a long travel day.

When you update this list I think it would be helpful to indicate whether the app is free, a one time purchase or as is the case with Safeture an ongoing timed subscription and quite expensive when you can go to the Smart Traveler app from the US State Department and get much of the same info for free.

Apps you should consider for your next roundup might include:

GateGuru, Airportrs, Rome2Rio, Europe, 5000Travel – all these are free by-the-way
