When you head out on a trip, there are certain things you're going to want by your side — your passport, a portable charger to keep your phone juiced up and maybe a good book to read on the plane. As for me, whenever I'm traveling, I make sure to have the iOS version of Maps close at hand.
In the ongoing Google Maps vs. Apple Maps debate, Apple's version comes up short for some people, though I think Apple has made great strides in recent years to improve its navigation app. But even if you're not a fan of Apple Maps in general, I think it can prove invaluable on a trip, with some features that make the mobile app an excellent travel companion.
