Introduction:

Nowadays, smartphones are ubiquitous, meaning they are everywhere, and you can hardly find a person without a smartphone. And they have become so vastly popular because of their versatile use and utilities. Sometimes they are life-savers, and for this topic, I will share one of my experiences when a smartphone saved my day

When it was?

It was about four or five months ago, during a hot summer day when I was on a vacation in a city where I had been for the first time in my life. At around 2:00 pm, when the sun was shining mercilessly and the temperature was much higher than usual, I found that I was lost in a crowded area and I had no clue how to get back to my hotel! It would not have been much of a problem if the locals could speak English or I could speak their language. But then I remembered I have “Google Maps” and at least 50 GB of mobile data on my smartphone

Why it was important?

I was already tired as I walked for at least an hour from place to place to convert my currency and buy some important items. When I realized that I was lost in this unknown city, it was equally distressing and tiring. So I turned to my smartphone to rescue me

What you did?

As soon as I opened the “Google Maps” application and entered the name of the hotel where I had checked in earlier, it was crystal clear that I can walk for 15 minutes or take a taxi to reach my hotel. I decided to walk and the application on my smartphone constantly helped me navigate through roads and streets to get back to my hotel. When I reached the hotel, it was such a relief and all I could think about is a cold shower and a power nap

And explain how you felt about the experience:

Getting lost is not a pleasant experience, especially in a city where I am a total stranger and don’t speak the language to ask people for directions. So when my smartphone helped me get back to my hotel without any trouble, I was once again glad to live in an era when those little yet powerful device makes our life a lot easier than ever
