For this week's edition of the Best Apps of the Week, we're seeing a lot of software that will help with those summer trips. You've got some great options for GPS apps, along with one that even provides a nature atlas to help you identify what you see. There's also some music apps for entertainment, and a fidget cube to help keep your young travelers entertained on those long rides.
Natural Atlas
The ultimate GPS for outdoors adventures
Natural Atlas provides you with all of the information you need for any outdoors adventure. It offers a topographical map, provides hints for great hikes, and has a database of thousands of campgrounds and national and state parks. You can also access essential guidebooks to purchase for even more information. Natural Atlas is just what you need on your iPhone when you're planning and playing in the great outdoors.
Gaia GPS
Setting a new standard for outdoor apps
Gaia GPS has been wholly reinvented in this latest version, bringing all of the features that have made the app so successful in the past few years. It offers downloadable topographic, satellite, and road maps, perfect for those trips off the beaten path. The interface has been carefully thought out to make navigating the back country easier than ever. You can even record tracks, way points, and other crucial data for finding your way through the woods.
