5/7 - Smartphone Applications and websites

Hello, today it's the internet and app part.

I can advice you to download these apps when you're still in your country, as I said on the 3rd articles, for exemple, try to book a cab, with ola cab, from your country, for when you will arrive at the airport

Ola Cab You want to book a cab (taxi) just download this application, choose "mini" and book a cab for now or later, it would be really cheaper and there is no night prices and no cheating prices. You can also try "Merou cab" I think, but Ola cab is working well. You can maybe, just before to leave, book one from the airport when you will arrive ?

Redbus You can book your ticket for a bus with redbus (website and application).

Zomato You want to eat, you go on Zomato and will find everything around you or in the city (pub, restaurant, trendy, bakery, delivery,....), there are a wabsite and an application.

Cleartrip.com: You want to book tickets for your trip you can go on this website for train, bus and hotel. If you want to book a train ticket you must have an indian account, except for this website where you can use any bank card, it would be a little more expensive (nothing, like 100Rs) but it would be working well. For hotel you will not find a lot of cheap places (like guesthouses) so maybe try another website like makemytrip or tripadvisor.

Bangalore Expat Club facebook page: You are new in the city and you want to go on party or meet some other expats of Bangalore, you can go on this facebook page (there is also a website). These parties are generally on 4stars rooftop hotel. Srishti students go sometimes, not often, it's not really considered as "Indian places" we could say.

You will know quite fast that 1euro=80rupees but you can download some app like "euro to indian rupee" to check fast, in both way, the amount.

Google maps application, you probably have it, it's always nice to know where we are, or how far is it :p After you could check the distance... 4km ? So 4*12=48Rupees... 50rupees by rickshaw to go there.

"Flat without broker" You want to find a place to stay, you can maybe try "flat without broker" keyword, you will find some websites and facebook pages.

You want to move ?

I've not checked but I'm sure you can find some "calculating fare for rickshaw", if you put where you go they will say you how much you have to pay.

(If this application doesn't exist I put a copyright on it haha :p )

Voila, Voila, I think that's all.
