788: Travel Tech

I don’t travel too often so I find it to be a bit stressful especially with trips and international work trips when not having the right documents can mean losing business. So I also set up a travel focus mode, sets Home Screen, allows only the right people to send notifications. I set up a widget to a folder in Mail that is my ongoing Active Trips folder, a notes widget for that specific trip (hotel, room number, etc) podcast and travel apps and that’s it. But the main thing I did was set the focus mode to activate at specific locations, so when I book the trip I’ll set a geographic trigger for the airports I’ll be at, so my phone and watch are automatically showing me just what I need when I am at the airports. It’s a small thing but it does help reduce stress to know I don’t need to dig through my phone for what I need.
