Using the AARP App
AARP has built an awesome app that provides many interesting insights for seniors. The travel section of the app is useful. It zeroes into several stunning travel ideas, and annotates them individually so that with a tap of your iPad, you can be planning your next trip.
Search the App Store for the AARP app. Tap the Free button, and then tap Install to download it. Tap Open to open it. If you are not already a registered user, you must register at the AARP website (www.aarp.org) to access this app.
