Whether you are a leisure or a business traveler, you cannot
downplay the role of technology in your travels. From using GPS to navigating
unfamiliar destinations to checking apps for the best local restaurants and
taking photos on multiple devices to document your travels, tech is important
in almost every aspect of travel, here are some top tech tips you should know whenever you travel.
Break language barriers
Download popular translation apps such as iTranslate, Google
Translate and TripLingo to help you communicate more easily with locals when
you visit countries you do not speak the language.
Share itinerary with friends and family members
Share your itinerary with any family members or friends who may
be anticipating your arrival. Itinerary sharing quickly notifies your contacts
about the status of your trip and provides immediate alerts regarding
unexpected changes or delay.
Entertain yourself
Download your preferred music, movies and books on your smartphone
and don't forget your headphones. With these, you can entertain yourself
whether it is a long haul flight or not.
Share travel photos on social media
With the existence of social media, you can easily share your
pictures at the click of a button as long as you have an internet connection.
Hence, there is no need to arrive your destination before you start sharing
photos and experiences.
Allow push notifications
Push notifications deliver real-time updates and alerts about
any flight, hotel or package deals to your phone. You simply need to have the
app of the OTA on your phone to receive these notifications.
Bundle booking
When booking a trip on an online travel agency, book your flight
and hotel at the exact same time. You will definitely save hundreds of naira by
booking them together. However, if you book them differently, you will clearly
be paying more.
Take pictures of your travel documents
Take a photo of all your travel documents and save it to your
email or your drive for easy access. Also, make sure you never leave home
without your phone just in case your documents go missen.
