[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”1967″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]You are soon going on a trip to Bali and wondering what applications to download on your mobile? Today, in the digital age, we forget a little maps and dictionaries to make way for one tool: our smartphone. When arriving on a trip to Bali, if you stay a few weeks, you can choose to buy a sim card with an internet connection, it is not very expensive and without commitment. This will allow you to always be connected during your holidays and to be able to manage a little during your days without a guide (anglophone or francophone). If you do not take a sim card, remember to disable data abroad before turning on your mobile when leaving the plane, The download of a single email can cost you more than 50€ off-package, it would be a shame to have this bad news as soon as you arrive in Bali. You can connect to wifi in all restaurants and hotels during your trip. Here is a list (not exhaustive) of the applications that I can recommend: Maps.me An application that allows you to have access to an offline map, and a GPS. You can also search for places offline. You only need to have downloaded the map of Bali beforehand (you can do it by wifi on arrival or from your home before departure). During your trip to Bali, this application will be useful both on foot and if you rent a scooter, in order to move during your free days without driver. Around Me An almost indispensable application during your trip to Bali, which allows you to find all the restaurants, bars, supermarkets etc. around you to be as autonomous as possible during your vacations. Google maps You probably know the application that allows you a GPS with real-time traffic analysis (if you have an internet connection). It also allows you to guide you offline, you must simply load the route and especially the destination beforehand when you are in wifi. For this point, it is less elaborate than maps.me but it is still more complete if you are looking for an address in a gang a little hidden in Bali. Google Translate You also know this app, I guess. But do you know that by downloading the language Bahasa Indonesia, it will allow you to translate everything you want offline. It might be useful during your trip to Bali, when you go for a ride in a typical market where nobody speaks English, in a little warung, or just if you want to talk a little with the locals. Go-jek If you have never set foot in Indonesia, you may not know what this app is, but it will be useful if you want to move without a driver, on short distances, and that you can not necessarily rent a scooter if you do not have the traffic habit in Bali. This application allows you to do a little anything you want, you can order a driver (two-wheels), order food, order a masseur, shopping… During your holidays in Bali, this application will be very useful (to use only with a 3G/ 4G connection or wifi). Facebook You obviously know this social network, I will not explain what it is for! But you may need it during your trip to Bali. It will allow you to find answers to your questions about many groups here (French-speaking Bali, Bali expats, the French in Bali…). Whatsapp This application is finally developing in France, even though we are still one of the few countries to use sms to communicate, while WhatsApp allows both sms, calls, voice messages, sending photos in large quantities… And all this by internet, so for the same price that you write in France, Indonesia or elsewhere. During your trip to Bali, it will allow you to communicate with your relatives who have stayed in France, and of course also with us, Bali Passion, which you can call or text whenever you feel the need. (Use with internet connection) Skype You probably know this app that allows you to make visio or not, worldwide, calls for free, thanks to a simple internet connection from both sides. But did you know that you can also buy skype credit? You are in Bali, you have an internet connection but not your friend stayed in France, you can call him on his mobile phone (mobile number) by going through the skype credit you have previously added to your account. This will save you from spending too much money on off-package (which is rising very quickly in Indonesia) and allow you to make that call. XE currency Between the euro and the rupee, the difference is huge and it is sometimes difficult to do calculations and know how much this dish costs, or how much you should trade this souvenir. This application will be useful during your trip to Bali, it will always let you know what is the rate of the Indonesian currency. [vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row]
