I don’t know about you, but I am addicted to my smartphone. It has made so many parts of my life easier. If you are planning on renting a truck and driving it cross country to move, it can make that easier for you too. Here are 5 great Android apps to download before your cross country move.
Google Maps Navigation: Google Navigation is great for those of you prone to getting lost. Just put in your destination and then follow the turn-by-turn directions until you get there. Much easier to use than paper maps and best of all, this app is probably already on your Android phone.
Gas Buddy: Driving a moving truck fully loaded with all of your worldly possessions across the country can burn through a lot of fuel. With this app, even when you are in a strange new city you can still find the cheapest place to fill up the tank.
Astrid Task/To-do List: A cross country move can be stressful, and that is why it is best to be organized. Astrid helps you easily set up to-do lists, set tasks, deadlines and reminders for yourself. After your move, Astrid (and other apps like it) can help you organize your everyday life as well.
Car Home Ultra: This app provides a handy dashboard shows you your speed, direction, weather and more during your drive. You can also put shortcuts to other apps you may be using when you move. Just remember to pull over before operating your phone!
TripIt Travel Organizer: TripIt is great for all sorts of trips. It allows you to put in your hotels and map out your journey. When you get to your destination it can also help you find restaurants and more nearby.
Hopefully these apps can make your move less stressful and more organized!
