Get the Best Deals

Your travel, lodging, and transportation are possibly even more important than your destination; it doesn't matter if you're in the most exciting city in the world if you don't know how to get there, where you're sleeping, or how you're going to get around. Here are some apps that will hook you up with a flight, a hotel, and a car, if that's how you (literally) roll. They could save you some money by bundling or let you compare rates from a bunch of different platforms to help you stay on schedule and get to the important business of relaxing and enjoying your trip.

Search for and compare flights while you use extra features to plan your whole trip.

Expedia: Hotels, Flights & Car

For those who like flight comparison apps that offer hotel and car rental options.

View a quick cost summary and then sign in to your Expedia account to book your trip. The Expedia app can also assist you with hotel and car rental reservations as well as activities in the area you are visiting.

Why we love it

If you are a current Expedia user, then the travel app for your device is a must-have. Search for and compare flights, book your trip, and use the bonus features for accommodations and car rentals.

Find Your Way

And it's even better if your navigation doesn't depend on an internet connection or having to download anything. These apps will set you up to make sure you can get to your destinations easily. And they'll also stop you from looking like the very specific kind of fool that comes with trying to walk and read a huge paper map simultaneously.

Capture All Your Experiences

What are you planning on using to remember your trip? Your memory? No; you need a camera. And these apps are here to beef up the one that's already built into your phone. They'll help make your shots clearer, give you a boost when you're shooting in less than ideal lighting, and provide tools to help you shoot like a pro. They probably won't make your post-vacation slideshows any more interesting for the friends and family you subject to them, but that's more a failing of the format than the pictures themselves.

Building on the popular and powerful original

Camera+: Pro Camera & Editor

Most importantly, the app now offers a UltraRes upscaling feature. Using machine learning technology, the app upscales images to up to four times what the native sensor can capture. The feature upscales the images while keeping the details crisp and clear. You can find it as a camera preset or as a new tool in the editor. It can be applied to any photo you’ve taken, even not using Camera+ 2. You’ll need an iPhone 11 or later, iPad Pro third-generation or later, ninth-generation iPad, or sixth-generation iPad mini to use UltraRes. Other changes include a redesigned editor and a live histogram in the camera screen. Camera+ 2 is a free download on the App Store and for the iPhone and iPad. With the new update, the app is making a move to the subscription model. Anyone who has previously purchased the app will still be able to access the features you’ve purchased. For new features, you’ll need a subscription of $3.99 per month or $17.99 yearly. You can also unlock lifetime access for $24.99.
