That was a problem I came across when cannabis started gaining more ground; where do I find a smoke shop near me no matter where I live or travel in the world?
How do I find them without having to ask around?
This article brings you apps that let you find smoke shops near you whether you’re using an Android or an iPhone.
Sometimes you’ll find good apps but because too many people aren’t using it the developer stops providing support. Other times the app gets bought out and shut down by the new owner in hopes of promoting their own (it happens). So here are some apps that have withstood the test of time:
- The first one is Weedmaps Marijuana Cannabis Strains. This app as you might appreciate is global. It has listings of dispensaries across United States, Canada and Europe. So no matter where you go this app will have you covered. You can find medical marijuana doctors in your area in case you want to get evaluated. With over 18,000 reviews and 4.3 rating you can’t go wrong. The only downside some people complained about is establishments are able to delete bad reviews about them – so that’s one downside.
- The second is for iPhone users. HotBox Smoke Shop Finder not only let me find a nice smoke shop near me while I was visiting friends it also provides you with a bit of education on smoke shop products and accessories. Neat!
- Leafly Marijuana is also a really good option. Over 44,000 reviews and a 4.7 rating. Millions of people are using this app to get the latest information, find dispensaries, read on edibles, news and more. There are a few bug fixes that need to be made but the developer is very active in providing support. This app is definitely here to stay and I can only see it getting better with time.
- THCFinder – Dispensary Finder is my last option. It’s a shame the last time it was updated by the developer was in 2013 but it’s worth a shot because early on it started getting very good reviews. You can get pictures of what you will be buying, find marijuana friendly doctors, hydroponic shops, smoke shops and more. It’s a great app and maybe if people start using it again the developer might put further work into it.
Surprisingly there aren’t a whole lot of apps out there which provide everything in one package. There are a few others out there which only provide news or best strands and some are just location specific to places like Hungary. When I wanted to find a smoke shop near me these are the apps that usually came recommended to me or after trying it I was impressed. If this was helpful and you got some value out of it share it, like it… anything that lets me know you appreciated it and I should provide more useful information. Depending on the demand I might even start dedicating an entire section to cannabis. Until then!
