      by Don Reisinger

      2WhatsApp Text Messenger

      2 - WhatsApp Text Messenger

      Spending cash on text messaging can get expensive when away from home. To alleviate that issue, consider downloading the WhatsApp Messenger. The 99-cent application works across platforms, including iOS and Android, and allows users to send text, photos, videos and audio notes to others. It’s a nicely useful program.

      3Twitter’s Vine Video-Sharing App

      3 - Twitter's Vine Video-Sharing App

      Twitter’s Vine is a great tag-along application to record and share fun memories from your vacation. The application is available for free in Apple’s App Store, and allows users to record short videos that can then be moved to the Web. It’s a fun application to have on a summer vacation.

      4TripIt Travel Organizer

      4 - TripIt Travel Organizer

      Although there’s a free version of TripIt Travel Organizer, that option comes with annoying ads. For just 99 cents, users can download the ad-free version, which comes with all the same features—full travel organizing, map information and access to tickets—without the annoying ads. The TripIt Travel Organizer is arguably one of the most useful applications in this roundup.

      5Hotels.com Room Reservations

      5 - Hotels.com Room Reservations

      Some folks like to travel the world without having set plans. For those adventurers, it’s a great idea to download Hotels.com. The free application allows users to search for hotels, view results on a map and get great, last-minute deals.

      6Office Mobile for Office 365

      6 - Office Mobile for Office 365

      Office Mobile for Office 365 might have taken a long time to get to iOS, but the application is an absolute necessity. The free application allows users to access and edit Word documents, Excel spreadsheets and PowerPoint presentations while they are on the go. Best of all, it’s free.

      7Dropbox Online File Storage

      7 - Dropbox Online File Storage

      Dropbox is a handy application for the average workaholic who just can’t seem to get away from the office. The application, which is free, allows users to download and upload large files. In many cases, companies need folks to review large files. The best way to access those files is with Dropbox.

      8Angry Birds Star Wars

      8 - Angry Birds Star Wars

      Looking for a little fun in your life? If so, try out the 99-cent Angry Birds Star Wars. The game is hugely addicting and would be a fun complement to a nice, quiet day on the beach. The game offers the same slingshot birds and mean pigs, but sets the entire game in the Star Wars universe. It’s a great, fun game to bring with you on a trip.

      9Google Maps

      9 - Google Maps

      Who really wants to use Apple’s Maps? The software was a dog to begin with and still fails to offer the quality of mapping users can find in Google Maps. So, it’s a good idea to download Google Maps before leaving on a trip. The free application is the best mobile mapping application available.

      10Waze Social GPS

      10 - Waze Social GPS

      Although there are several GPS applications available, the Waze Social GPS might be one of the better options. Rather than rely on simple navigation information, Waze doubles as a social network, allowing users to share with others where there’s heavy traffic, an accident or even posted police officers. It’s a handy app to have when driving around in places you’re not familiar with. Plus, it’s free.

      11Find My iPhone

      11 - Find My iPhone

      Apple’s Find My iPhone application is an important one for those who are traveling around the globe and have a tendency to forget where they placed things. The Find My iPhone app, which is free, allows users to quickly find out where their iPhone (or iPad) is, and see it on a map. So, if you leave it at the restaurant, you’ll be able to figure out exactly where it is and go back to pick it up. It’s a very important tool.
