7 Must-Have Apps for Your Move to Canada

Moving to a new country can feel overwhelming, but don’t worry! We’ve got a handy list of 7 mobile apps to help make your transition to Canada smoother than a warm buttered biscuit.

First up, let’s talk about housing. Apps like Padmapper, Rentals.ca, and Zillow are great for finding rental homes based on what you want, whether it’s the number of bedrooms or your budget. And if you need a place to crash at first, consider booking a short-term rental with AirBnB.

If buying a home is your goal, Realtor.ca is loaded with listings as well!

For those looking for bargains on everything from furniture to appliances, check out Kijiji and Facebook Marketplace.

When it comes to customs, streamlining your arrival just got easier with the ArriveCAN app. Just fill out your customs declaration before landing at major airports like Toronto Pearson or Vancouver International Airport.

Now, let’s navigate with ease. Use What3Words to share locations even if they don’t have proper addresses. You can even save locations for emergencies!

Don’t forget the transportation apps! Whether you’re in Calgary or Toronto, apps like Transit will give you live updates on public transport. Car-sharing apps like ZipCar let you hop in a car without traditional rental hassle.

There you have it! With these apps on your phone, moving to Canada will be a breeze. Happy travels!
