The 5 Apps You Need While Travelling

Phone apps you need to download before you travel. From the AOL Partner Studio.

We go on vacations to relax but planning them can be super stressful. Instead of losing your mind planning details of your itinerary, let technology help ease the stress on your next vacation. We've partnered with Hilton to list five mobile apps that help make any trip a stress-free one.

Tripit

Gone are the days of writing down your itinerary or tagging your guide book. Tripit is an itinerary management app that will take those pieces of paper, that guide book, those car bookings and your emails and put them neatly in one place, organized by date and time. The best part of Tripit is that the app is available offline, meaning no additional roaming fees.

Google Translate

This app translates verbal conversation into a language you understand so you can carry on a conversation. There's also an added feature that allows you to take pictures of signs and have the image translated in real-time.

Hilton HHonors App

The Hilton HHonors App not only lets users book and check-in to hotel rooms from your mobile phone, you can organize other aspects of your stay with a touch of the screen. That means you can order extra pillows and snacks in advance so that they're ready by the time you get to your room.

Travel List

Forget about writing your packing lists on paper. Travel List makes it easy for you to create personalized digital lists so you won't forget something vital on your next excursion.

WhatsApp

Roaming can lead to a really expensive charges on your next phone bill. Download WhatsApp and send messages, pictures and video without using SMS. It does use your internet data plan though, so be sure you're on Wi-Fi before you send any messages.
