Apps & Platforms You’ll Want to Know

As a digital nomad, having the right apps for working remotely and staying in touch is essential. These are some favorites among the NomadSphere community.

• Communication: Tools like WhatsApp, Slack, Zoom, Google Meet and Skype make staying in touch and collaborating from anywhere possible. If you’ll be using a virtual SIM card rather than a physical one, Monty eSim is one option.

• Finance: Apps like Wise, Revolut, and Xero help manage international transactions and keep track of finances on the move.

• Travel Planning: Platforms such as SkyScanner, and Maps.me offer insights on destinations, flights, and local navigation respectively. TripIt is useful for putting in detailed travel arrangements and getting alerts about late flights. If you’re a NomadSphere member, you can also use our itinerary tool to plan, share, and synchronize your travels with fellow community members.

• Productivity: Trello, Notion, and Todoist are great for project management and daily tasks.

• Security: VPN services like ExpressVPN or NordVPN ensure safe browsing in various regions.
