Finding your way around in any city can be a daunting experience, especially if you are a visitor. I live in London and if I go to Edinburgh in Scotland I get lost. No one is a human map and it’s impossible to know every single road in your city. This is the reason why you need something to point you into the right direction. We have listed below some apps for your Apple Watch that will save you from walking down a dark lonely alley.
Google Maps – “Without doubt, the most popular of all the apps we are going to list. Google Maps makes navigating your world faster and easier.
