There are enough boundaries to successful travel. Luggage gets lost, kids get cranky, and hotel rooms seem to get smaller and more expensive. However, a number of apps are designed to make it easier to travel, especially for parents. Don’t fret when help is right there in your hands.

ContinuousCare

This is a one-stop app for health related concerns. Store family member information, schedule doctor and specialist appointments, and get answers from certified professionals. Also, doctors who use Virtual Practice can schedule live consultations with patients.

Playground Buddy

You’re concerned about the number of stars of the hotel and whether the views are worth the price. Kids are mainly focused on points of interest, like playgrounds. The playground app helps moms and dads locate parks and outdoor play areas all over the world.

Trekaroo

If you like the idea of locating points to entertain the kiddies then you’ll love Trekaroo. Get ideas and find locations of museums, skate parks, movie theaters, and more. Locate a destination based on the interest of your kids and family.

Kids Eat Free

What’s better than an unblemished vacation? One that saves you money. Kids Eat Free helps parents locate places that discount kid meals, desserts, etc. If you’re lucky, you can access the app throughout your vacation and never spend any money on your kids’ food. Or, if the kids are eating free, mom and dad can reserve some money to splurge on themselves!

TaskRabbit

If you’re one with a type A personality, you may get anxious about the time lost when vacationing. Don’t worry; this app works with a third party company that assigns your tasks out to those who are willing to pick up your laundry, mow the lawn, grab the mail while you’re gone, etc.

Call Recorder

The Call Recorder app is great for those on the run and who don’t have time to open a computer or write down information. The call recorder app conveniently records phone conversations so moms and dads can return to conversations at a later time. Read more about the call recording app.

Path

This could be incredibly convenient for those vacationing with tweens and teens, those who are not old enough to vacation alone but ‘cool enough’ to do some activities on their own. Path is a social site for those who have a microcosm to look after. Family members can share experiences despite a close familial and physical distance.

ChoreMonster

Chore Monster alternates things a bit from the above app. Rather than others, Chore Monster supports kids doing chores for some sort of return, whether it’s money, a later bedtime, or more freedom while on vacation. If you’re worried about things getting done before you leave, download Chore Monster and get the kids involved.

TripCase

TripCase is your personal secretary for all things travel. Keep all information related to directions, airfare, hotel bookings, car rental, and more in one place. Forward confirmation info to a specified email account and the app automatically updates your travel info in real time.
