Essential App to travel in ChinaInternet in China

Wechat

Wechat is a messenger, video chat, social media platform, bank account, shopping app, and map all rolled into one.

You can translate messages sent on the app from English to Chinese and vice-versa; You can also use the “scan” function as a camera translator. Use the scanner to take a photo of a menu or bus schedule, and WeChat will translate it to English.

An incredibly powerful feature of WeChat is WeChat Wallet.China is rapidly moving towards a cashless society. Through WeChat you can pay for almost everything on your phone. You’ll see QR codes taped to walls and laminated on cards. You can scan the code and then use a linked bank account or your WeChat balance to pay.

Didi

Didi is the Chinese version of Uber and can be useful in a variety of travel situations.

When you take a taxi, you’ll need to be able to tell the driver the name of where you’re going in Chinese. Didi solves that issue because it works just like Uber: When you are picked up, your destination is already loaded into the driver’s navigation.

In order to use Didi, you need WeChat Wallet. If you aren’t able to use WeChat pay, it is possible to request Didi’s for other people. Let your hostel or guesthouse know if you plan on arriving somewhere late and they can arrange a Didi for you.
