Best travel apps for every trip
When I start packing, the travel apps on my phone are already half the planning done. From offline maps and budgeting to eSIM and navigation, these apps have literally saved me, especially in Koufonisia and Amorgos.
🗺️ Island trips, the maps that actually save you
On islands with patchy signal, MAPS.ME and HERE WeGo are lifesavers. On my last hike in Amorgos, MAPS.ME helped me find a trail that even the locals had “kind of forgotten”.
🔋 Powerbank 10,000mAh
Without battery, no app can save you. A powerbank is one of the most useful travel gadgets for every trip.

If you love nature, download OsmAnd and AllTrails. They are perfect for routes, maps and ideas in places like Amorgos and Naxos. The best travel apps if you want to get “lost” in style.
💰 Budget & friends without drama
Wanderlog keeps your itinerary and budget tidy, while Splitwise literally saves friendships. I still remember me and Maria in Koufonisia trying to remember who paid for the small boats – the app solved it in seconds.
📍 Smart tag for luggage
Connects with an app and shows you where your suitcase is at any time. Perfect for ferries or flights with lots of bags.
