Useful applications when visiting Bulgaria
Smart phones are part of our day-to-day and we use a variety of applications to make our lives easier.
We've outlined some of the most useful applications when visiting Bulgaria that will make your trip easier, more accessible and more enjoyable.
Google Translate
Google Translate is a fast and easy way to translate menus in cafes and restaurants. Simply open up the application and select the option to translate with your camera. Or, if you need to say a couple of words in Bulgarian, Google Translate will help you with the pronunciation.
Moovit
An application similar to Google Maps, but with the benefit that it provides detailed routes for the main cities in Bulgaria. Whether you’re walking, taking public transport, or driving – Moovit is the mobility you need.
Taxi Me
If you ever need to call a cab in Sofia, Taxi Me is the easiest way to do it right from your smart phone. With the location services enabled on your phone, the app places a pin directly on your location. By far the safest and scam-free option to hail a cab in the city, as the prices are fixed.
Spark
Spark allows you to easily zoom around Sofia, or even drive to nearby Plovdiv with an electric car. Simply scan your driver’s license and get moving! A huge benefit of this service is that you can park in the center for free and of course, access remote locations, like Kopitoto or the Dragalevski Monastery.

Bulgarito
Available for Android devices only.
