Travel & Booking Apps in Australia

AustralianETA is essential only for travelers whose passport and trip require an Electronic Travel Authority. Eligible applicants must be outside Australia and use the official app, which reads the passport chip and uses the device camera and location. The government service charge is AUD20 as of August 2026, and each traveler needs a separate application. It is not the correct route for everyone. Many European passport holders can use the online eVisitor process instead, and other nationalities need a different visa. Check the Department of Home Affairs visa finder before applying and never pay a lookalike site merely because it ranks above the government result. The Australian Immi App is not a general visa app; it is only for eligible applicants who receive a biometrics request letter with the required visa-lodgement number. The Australia Travel Declaration is also not a general arrival download during 2026 because the government is still piloting it on selected inbound flights. WikiCamps Australia is a strong optional tool for campervan, caravan and camping trips. It combines campgrounds, caravan parks, dump points, water and community reports, with offline content available after setup. Its current access model includes an initial trial followed by paid access, so check the store terms before relying on it. Verify legal overnight-stay rules, road access and closure information with the land manager rather than treating a community pin as permission.
