Whether you’re going for a business travel or for just a few days or for several weeks,
time management and efficiency can often mean the difference between rousing
success and debilitating stress.
Technology
plays a big part in this; specifically, smartphone apps, many of which have
come after many years of trial and error in their attempts to expedite travel
necessities and avoid any mishaps.
Not
sure which ones you should be downloading? Theupsider.com.au has
rounded up a few of the best.
These
are the essential apps every savvy business
traveller should have – aside from the obvious Drop box, Google Maps,
Google Translate, WhatsApp and the many ride-sharing services, of course.
Drops
Let’s
face it, brushing up on a new language beyond a few phrases often demands more
time than you may have. That’s where an audio-visual learning app like Drops comes
in.
Particularly
if you’re on a last-minute trip, Drops is a valuable program for those who need
help building, strengthening and maintaining their vocabulary in any of 32
different languages, which include Japanese, Korean, French, German and
Portuguese.
Through
a rote learning approach and a clean, attractive interface, the app
successfully gamifies the time-consuming task of building a sufficient
vocabulary in another language, doing so in engaging and meaningful ways that
don’t feel tedious or demanding.
