Hey guys, I’m planning to have a trip to Japan on the 19th.

Are there any apps that you would recommend installing?

As for now, I’m looking for: currency converter, two clocks widget app (Japan+home), weather app, and any other suggestions. TY.

    I usually put all the relevant travel data in my Joplin notebook. If the tickets are availible as .passkey files I manage them with PassAndroid. Transportr for public transportation. Wireguard if you need to access your home network via VPN.

      Thanks I just tried PassAndroid, pretty slick! I was using KDE Itinerary (way more features and always improving, but not too polished yet) to manage tickets before, now I have an alternative.

      Regarding wireguard I always used WG Tunnel from f-droid, I’m looking at the official Wireguard app screenshots and it seems to have the same functionality (easy config import via QR scan, notification shade button), maybe it looks prettier. Not on f-droid, that’s why I didn’t come across it before.

        Nothing wrong with WG Tunnel. Btw Wireguard is on the IzzyOnDroid Repo.
