The latest game-changing tech toy from the wizards at Apple Inc. has finally arrived, and with it are several travel-friendly Apple Watch apps promising to do everything from unlock a hotel room to open a garage door remotely from the other side of the world.
Apple
began shipping watches on April 24 to the estimated 2.3 million early
adopters who per-ordered units (though actual delivery of the device may
take four to six weeks).
The new
wearables carry price tags ranging from $349 for the basic "Sport" model
to $17,000 for the luxe 18-karat gold "Edition" model, and require
connection to an iPhone 5 or later to function.
The
fact that it's an untested technology hasn't stopped several top-tier
brands from supporting Apple Watch with a number of interesting
functions travelers can take advantage of.
There
are the obvious out of the box features for messaging, scheduling and
purchasing, but also a handful of wrist-ready third-party apps promising
to transform the way you navigate the globe.
Here's a look at 10 of the best apps for travel.
