Plan your trip:
TripIt: Trip Planner (No Ads) – TripIt
I use this App every time I am planning trips together with my husband. It is great to keep track of all itineraries, especially flights, accommodation, car rentals and meetings/events. We stop going to our email to try to find emails, booking codes, reservations and details. You can choose to get notifications of any registered events, flight changes, etc. TripIt has a free-version and if you want to get more features you can upgrade it to the paid version.
Maps:
Google Maps – Real-time navigation, traffic, transit, and nearby places.
This is a very useful and easy to use App, ideal to have at home as well as when travelling. I have been able to find directions and navigate in small and big cities with this App, and since it works offline it will help you find your way.
In sum, unless you are going on a digital detox these are some of the best travel mobile apps to use while in South America. Also great to start planning your schedule.
