How we review
What goes into a country guide, what the review labels mean, and how to tell us when something is wrong.
How apps are chosen
- We start from what a visitor needs to do: pay, find the way, get around, book trains, translate and stay online.
- For each job we list the app most visitors use, and alternatives where they help (for example a booking agent instead of the official train app).
- Facts come from the app makers’ official sites and from government travel advice. Every note links to its source.
- Each app is marked “Most travelers” or “Optional”, and says whether it should be set up at home.
What the labels mean
- Not yet reviewed: the guide is written from its sources but hasn’t been checked by a reviewer. Check the official links before you rely on it.
- Reviewed: a named person has checked every app, step and link against the sources, and the guide shows who and when.
- Estimate / not checked live: used in plans for transfer times and prices that come from the AI, not from live data.
Keeping guides current
Payment rules, app sign-ups and visa rules change. A reviewed guide shows its review date. A guide is checked again when a reader reports a problem or a source changes.
Partners never pick apps
Partner links, such as eSIMs and hotels, appear below the practical apps, at most three per destination, and are never part of the recommendations. Every one carries this line: “Amicly may earn a commission from qualifying bookings through these links.” Details are in the affiliate disclosure.
Report a correction
Email jossefsal@gmail.com with the page and what’s wrong, and a source if you have one. We check it against the source and fix the guide in the app and on this site at the same time, because both read the same file.
