These days, most travelers use smartphones as all-in-one travel assistants. The electronic device can serve as your camera, your map, your guidebook, your alarm clock, your flight check-in agent and so much more. To avoid getting caught without this vital piece of technology, don’t forget to pack these essential mobile phone accessories to help support your support system.
Portable Charger
Using maps, translation apps and other features can suck your battery dry, so remember to pack one (or even two) rechargable battery packs, and remember to charge them before you head out to explore!
Memory
Our phones are the modern-day photo album and all those photos can make storage disappear fast. If you’re worried about not having enough storage for photos and videos, clear out some of your old media or purchase additional storage through Google Drive, Dropbox or iCloud.
Wrist Strap
Losing your phone might be one of the worst ways your vacation could be ruined. Affixing your phone to a body part or the inside of a bag can help lessen the chance of it being swiped by a thief.
Durable Phone Case
In case your phone does leave your hands, a sturdy phone case will help protect it from smashing to the ground and possibly shattering the phone and screen.
