Travel Smart: A Tourist's Guide to Using a Smart Phone

Tired of costly roaming fees, borrowing public computers, and lugging around bulky map books while travelling? It's time to let your phone take care of everything. This session is your ticket to a more relaxed trip. We'll show you how to turn your smartphone into the ultimate travel helper. We'll cover everything from using map apps offline, without Wi-Fi or a data plan, to discovering local gems and how to use an eSIM to get affordable data anywhere in the world. From digital wallets, VPNs, and using "airplane mode," you’ll gain a strong new set of skills to help you stay connected and travel with total peace of mind, whether exploring locally or abroad.
