Travelers are using their smartphones and tablets more and more, both in the planning stages of the trip and on the road. But with all the information and apps out there, where do you begin?

Starting this month, Apple will be holding free travel workshops for iPhone and iPad users at stores nationwide. The tutorials – focusing on apps, products, and other tools – are divided into three sections to give the best tips for before, during, and after your trip. Learn how to load up on games and books to keep you busy in transit, what apps work best, and how to share photos and more once you return home.
