The best mobile apps for Songkran

Yeah, we all know this is the holy grail for people who like watching movies and series. There are plenty of choices to pick from romantic to horror genres. Netflix, however, works best if you’re a fan of Hollywood and international movies, as well as Netflix-produced series such as Stranger Things, A Series of Unfortunate Events, and The Crown. But if the oppas are your true loves, iFlix is your answer.

Plenty of free time during Songkran break? Why don’t make the most of your day practicing a new language skill? Duolingo makes learning new languages – French, Spanish, German, Swedish, Turkish and many more – fun and entertaining through its friendly UI and interactive features. Your another choice could be Memrise, which lets your learn different new languages over various topics, like literature, art and science.

Your friends have already escaped town? It’s time to make new friends – or more. You know we Thais are born hospitable, right? Oh, but if you’re one of those men who date men and you’re already fed up with Grindr, and Jack’d, it’s probably the best time to try on the Beijing-born gay-dating app Blued. Do we have to mention thousands of Chinese lads will be in town throughout the festival?

Currently one of the most entertaining games out there, Trivia Crack challenges your general knowledge in six categories: art, entertainment, sport, science, history and geography. Pick the category you like and begin the competition against your friends or people all over the world.

One word: our savior. Despite unofficially legal in Thailand, Uber operates normally and remain one of the safest way to get around the city. Hungry and don’t wanna risk your life getting soaked up walking to buy food? Try its sister app UberEATS. The catch? UberEATS is not (yet) available everywhere in Bangkok.

If you haven’t had our app downloaded to your phone already, please do. The Time Out app allows you to find the newest restaurant reviews, top events, and nearby places to eat and where to go during Songkran break.The best part? It’s free!
