Will my IPhone Apps work in Spain? - 1
I know I won't be able to call or text people, but will I still be able to use apps like Facebook or Angry birds in Spain? (Verizion)
YES - your apps inside your phone will work just fine.
- BUT DO ABSOLUTELY NOT use anything that is in any way, shape of form connected to the Internet
Why? Because the data plans for a visitor will make you poor. A typical two min look at your Facebook will cost about $ 50 - $ 75. (Fifty to seventy five DOLLARS)
So, do make totally sure that you disconnect all 3G, all data services or location services in your phone before you land. Use your phone ONLY to receive calls with. Do not use the map feature, it will cost you about $ 25.00 per MINUTE.
Pre pay your telephone company before you leave home. For that you typically pre pay about $ 60 for 40 min of telephone use. No plan, tel-calls $ 2.50 - $ 4.00 per min, SMS about $ 1.00 - $ 2.00 each, coming or going. Be forewarned.
For all outgoing calls you use skype whenever you are in a Wi-Fi zone.
Download it for free here, use your credit card to prepay about $ 10.00, it will give you plenty of calling time to most any telephone in the world for about $ 0.02 per min (Two cents per minute):

For email and any other Internet services, only use it when you are connected to Wi-Fi. There are Wi-Fi hotspots everywhere in Spain, just ask for the password, if needed.
Check with Verizon. Not us.
If your phone is unlocked, you should be able to call and text people.
Such things will cost, though.
You may simply want to have it along for the camera… I took photos on my old phone… Still have them in my phone, three phones later.
- Will my T-Mobile iPhone 5 work in Spain? I'm traveling to Spain next month and will more than likely be bringing along my iPhone 5 for the trip for use as a camera/iPod/etc. And was wondering if it would be possible to use it for texts, calls, and data as well? If so would this cost extra, or would there be a way to get it for free?

- Will my iphone 3gs work in spain and good spain phone deals? I'm from Australia and i'm going to Spain soon, and I'm just wondering if my iphone 3gs will work in Spain on the Spain network if I get a prepaid Spain simcard, do I just take out my Aussie sim and put the Spain one in, will it work? Or what do I need to do?
