13 Must-Have Apps for Solo Female Travellers: Game-Changers!
Getting ready to discover the world on your own terms? These apps for solo female travellers will make things easier, safer, and even more FUN for you.

Using both community-reported and police crime data, it helps you plan the safest route. You can also let your trusted friends follow your journey for extra peace of mind.
2. Flush
Find the nearest public toilet, even when you’re offline.

We bet you already have it, but did you know you could also download the offline map of your destination?
This is what makes it one of the very best apps for solo female travellers: no more worrying about getting lost if you lose signal!
4. Hopper
While it also helps with accommodation and rental cars, this is a particularly handy app for solo female travellers looking for flight deals.
It gives you advice on when to buy your tickets and sends you notifications when there’s a price drop.
