5. WiFi Mapper: Discover free WiFi

Very useful if you are stranded abroad and you need to connect. Remember: Do not use free hotspots for paying online. This is due to WiFi sniffing — meaning that someone else using the same hotspot can potentially capture your data and thereby your bank details.

Send your family a physical post card with this unique app! If your relative or friend is more offline than online, you can surprise them with a real authentic post card. Just use a picture from Facebook, Instagram or make a picture on the fly. Write a message and pay with your credit card.

7. KRY: Visit a doctor, everywhere – anytime

Doctors are often unreachable during the holidays, yet there are some solutions for this; KRY is an app to help you to get in contact with an expert. You meet a doctor over a video call. Make an appointment for yourself or your child and the doctor will diagnose your symptoms and give you prescriptions or advice.

8. Rädda Hjärtat: Save lives
