Dear Members,
I am travelling around Aus in April and have been looking for any travel Apps that may would assist myself and the family in our travels. I thought this would be the place place to ask.You are all so helpful and knowledgeable.
I have an app called Oz Road Trip and have found ito be very good for $4.95.
Another App called Star Map is fantastic for anyone interested in the stars and the planets. All you have to do is hold up your i pad or phone towards the sky !
Can you recommend any others ?
Thanking You,
Michael

The iphone apps i regularly use when travelling are
Sygic (GPS navigation - much cheaper than Tom Tom)
Pkt Weather (forecasts)
RainRadarAU (bom radars)
First Aid (St
John ambulance quick reference guide)
PhotoCaddy (quick reference for manual DSLR camera settings)
Flashlight (you need this to find your real torch)
Navionics (good when on the water - fishing charters etc)
Altitude (interesting to use when driving)
Geocaching (treasure hunts for the kids everwhere - anytime)
Star Walk (same as star map - but much cheaper)
I use the twitter app to track FESA, Police Media, MBRC Disaster Management etc for major events - bush fires, flooding, road closures etc.
Have fun
