You are not alone if you are faced with the same dilemma. But, be realistic — it is difficult to find your way in a foreign country, especially when you have just arrived there for the first time.
How can this headache, provoked by travel, be treated?
Well It’s simple.. With the right Apps of course!
Grab
Grab, similar to the Uber app, is a taxi app that facilitates fast and easy transportation without a pre-arranged reservation. Also, Grab provides a variety of transportation options including taxis, personal vehicles, motorcycles, and delivery services. All you have to do is choose the starting point and final destination, this application will calculate the distance, expected time and estimated cost, and you will only have to wait for your taxi to arrive and take you to your intended destination.
With the delivery service feature, you can order food, fields, and even large or heavy items from nearby restaurants or stores. Using Grab is simple, you can pay for your ride in cash or with a credit card, and you will receive an email with a receipt for the trip every time you use the app. Also, the Grab app in Thailand is also compatible with English, and you don’t have to concern yourself with the language. There is a texting area for communicating with the driver, the message will be automatically converted into English and Thai.
Bolt
The app called Bolt that works on mobile platforms for booking quick and easy rides. All you have to do is get the app on your smartphone, sign up, and you can go wherever you want to whenever you need to hail a ride. Bolt is an advanced navigation solution that allows you to move around the city without using traditional taxis. All of these mobile ride-hailing apps function very similarly.
When the app is downloaded and opened, a user logs in with their account details, at which point they are redirected to the main interface. On this interface, the client can input where they currently are and where they want to be transported to.
In turn, Bolt starts searching for the closest driver available who will then drive the customer and deliver them safely to their desired location. Meanwhile, cashless payments eliminate any difficulties in using this software-based service, ensuring an undemanding and comfortable experience.

ThaiFriendly
Are you Interested in meeting any new Thai friends?
ThaiFriendly is a popular app for dating with Thai people. But even if you don’t want any romance, it can be a good source of meeting friends and finding cool local places to go out.
It is my habit to say, “If the Thais do it, I do it.” (My girlfriend knows this well.) Therefore, you could make new friends in Thailand the way Thai people would. When you use ThaiFriendly, you are not a tourist anymore – you become like one of the Thai people.
Not only to find a date but to see life in Thailand through the eyes of Thai people. And who knows, maybe your trip boy or girl will become your best friend for the rest of your life?

Unlike other applications, the pricing is not based on time and distance. You mutually agree on a fair price with the driver before starting the trip.
Line
You may believe that Whatsapp & Facebook Messenger are the most popular apps for chatting, but this isn’t necessarily the case in Thailand. Line Application is more important and is used by all the locals to communicate via instant messages.

Many Thais utilize Line as their primary method of communication in order to maintain contact with everyone, this will simplify the process of communicating with your new friends in Thailand.

A necessity that is present in every part of the world, especially when traveling in Thailand, is Google Maps. (The most beneficial aspect is that it is completely free to utilize!)
AirVisual
Air Visual is a helpful app for anyone who is concerned with their health. As the environmental standards in Thailand are relatively low, occasionally the polluted air covers the entire city, particularly in areas like Bangkok and Chiang Mai. The app is intended to be simple to utilize, with specific information regarding pollution and a division into colors that correspond to the quality of air. This app will assist you in comprehending the surroundings and taking appropriate action in order to be safe.
Foodpanda
Are you hungry and lazy to go outside?
It’s time to order food from Foodpanda, one of the most popular food delivery app along with Grab & Lineman. Additionally, they serve food from various local restaurants.Tasty!
Imagine this: you are lounging in your hotel room after a long day of traveling to explore the incredible & beautiful Thailand. Your stomach’s grumbling, but the concept of stepping away and going outside seems to be as attractive as doing laundry for the third time in a day. Not something you enjoy, is it?
Foodpanda is here to rescue the day.
This wonderful app provides you with whatever flavored Thai & Western food you want, right in your front door. From spicy Papaya salad to comforting Pad Thai, it has it all. And the most beneficial aspect? You may not need to wear pants in order to receive your food (but I advise you to). Additionally, you can pay with cash or a credit card, so you are prepared for whatever you choose.
Now isn’t that helpful?
However, Foodpanda is of crucial importance when traveling through Thailand. From Bangkok and Chiang Mai, you can travel to the southern part of Phuket. You will find it there. On your next trip to Thailand, do something nice for yourself and download Foodpanda.
