A list of essential apps for Hong Kong tourism

Traveling to Hong Kong is a stranger to many people, so Garnett recommended 17 apps suitable for traveling to Hong Kong. With these apps, your trip to Hong Kong will be easier ~ Let's take a look at the list of necessary apps for traveling in Hong Kong.

? Map traffic

although Baidu map is already very reliable, in hong kong, I recommend Google Map and Centa Map (central plains map)

▲▼Google Map

in hong kong, Google can operate normally without a "firewall", and it is very fast because of its fast network speed.

moreover, there is no harm without comparison

once you compare Baidu map and Google Map in hong kong, you will find how rubbish Baidu is in hong kong ~

▲▼Centa Map

The main advantage of Centa map is that it can be used for bus navigation. After all, in hong kong, bus routes are extremely complicated, and it is really necessary to rely on buses to get to some destinations. (such as Stanley)

▲▼MTR mobile

MTR mobile is here to help you fix the subway line. Although the above two maps can also see the subway line, it will make you more convenient to have MTR mobile in hand. After all, it is used to see the subway. So at this time, Centa Map comes into play.

▲▼ Toilet flush

No explanation, people have three emergencies. Toilet flush can help you find the toilet faster, and it is often very reliable.

▲▼Uber

Are you still dripping in Hong Kong? Uber is much cheaper than taxis during off-peak season.

　? Catering

▲▼OpenRice for dinner

Undoubtedly, HK's catering App has only one OpenRice, which provides users with food-related information and reservation functions.

It's equivalent to the public comments in mainland China. Although people in different places have different tastes, the most authentic one is the local people who have the final say. OpenRice's comments are all from Hong Kong locals.

It includes not only delicious food ~ but also the evaluation of many shopping malls and tourist attractions ~

? Fun category

▲▼HK movie

HK movie, UA and MCL are basically the same category, that is, watching Hong Kong movies and buying movie tickets.

visa, credit card, MasterCard and other cards are commonly used in Hong Kong. If you book movie tickets online, you can only pay with these cards.

If you want to watch 3D movies, you need to bring your own 3D glasses. If not, you need to spend an extra $1 yuan to buy them.

▲▼Timable carpe diem

Help you find activities "anytime, anywhere"! Popular events, minority tastes, enjoy Hong Kong festivals, music, concerts, art, exhibitions, parent-child activities and so on.

to discover the first-hand activity information of HK, look at this APP, which is absolutely correct.

to put it simply, look up HKMovie in the cinema and timable in all kinds of activities.

　 ? Travel strategy category

▲▼ good place HK Lite

good place HK Lite introduces many local good places, and the classification is not only clear, but also convenient and easy to use. Users may wish to plan their trips and explore Hong Kong with friends and family.

many private scenic spots may not be available in the mainland's raiders, or they may not be complete, but this APP should not be too complete.

▲▼ Poor Travel

The advantage of this APP is that it not only allows you to watch the Raiders, but also allows you to buy Local travel products anytime and anywhere. For example, the cable car in Taiping Mountain, Madame Tussauds Wax Museum ...

Although the strategy of HK Lite far less complete than that of a good place, it is still great to buy it immediately.

　 ? Social category

▲▼Instagram

In fact, WhatsApp is the most commonly used social APP for HK people, but in terms of the usage habits of Chinese people, Ins will feel better.

for Ins, I just look at the beautiful photos of these bloggers on their travels, and then learn their photos in the same place.

There are many HK destinations on INS, all of which are very popular.

? Consultation

▲▼ The Hong Kong government informs you

to provide convenient channels for citizens to receive government information and tips on their mobile phones. Users can choose the types of information and tips they want to receive.

main functions:

1. receiving notification messages sent by the government of the hong kong special administrative region

2. selecting the types of messages to receive

3. sharing messages through SMS, email, Facebook and Twitter

is the most important function to inform you of some important events, such as what typhoon signal is coming, which are all noteworthy events.

▲▼Flight Info

Flight information in Hong Kong International Airport is queried. If the airport arrives early, watching the real-time flight updates here saves the effort of looking for the big screen again. Updating the information every 6s can help you do the final shopping with peace of mind.

When you think about Hong Kong, you are much more accurate than sailing.

　 ? Shopping category

▲▼Groupon

contains many Hong Kong discounts, whether it is cosmetics, skincare products or home appliances, as long as there are discounts, this app will include them.

it is the new beauty university of HK.

▲▼ Alipay

Alipay is in HK, and it is still very useful. At the same time, in most cases, the exchange rate is more affordable than UnionPay, so you can compare it.

at the same time, you can also use AliPay when refunding taxes.

I'll open a new one another day, detailing how to use Alipay skillfully overseas.

minimalist exchange rate

is an exchange rate application designed for overseas travel and Haitao shopping. The key falls from the hand, which is powerful. Support bitcoin, gold and silver and more than 16 currencies around the world, with its own intelligent calculator.

In fact, this APP is not only applicable in HK, but also very useful all over the country.
