Tip 20: Easy London

City mapper’s mission? Make cities easier to use.

This app is invaluable for finding your way around London and much better than an A-Z. Trust me. You select a destination and it gives you every option available to get there including real time tube and bus times and costs. A personal favourite is the taxi option - you can justify taking a cab if you compare it to the time and cost of public transport. Plus, it remembers your favourite/frequent destinations so it’s not such a big deal if typing in your home address is not possible at the time.

Genius.
