Any must-have apps these days? (latte.isnot.coffee)

So I'm actually German but haven't been back home in 5+ years, except for a short business trip where I didn't really do all that much.

Now I'm going back for a few weeks almost exclusively for touristy purposes (my wife has never been to the EU), and I'm wondering what's really changed / what is considered must-haves these days?

DB Navigator is useful if you use public transport

DB Streckenagent is showing issues more reliable and faster

Ah forgot about that. (idk why DB has so many different apps...)

Do they show local transport now? I have the DB app for buying tickets, but never used it beyond that.

You should also consider Nina and or KATWARN for safety reasons, its a warn apps for emergencys and catastrophes, hope you don't need it but it might be useful.
