Thank you Germany: Part 104: Internet coverage is available almost everywhere

Fast and convenient access to the Internet is an important sign of a good quality of life, especially for young people. However, uncomplicated access to the Internet via their smartphone also offers older people crucial convenience in a new city or when they have important questions. Germany has a well-developed network here. It's not just techies who benefit from these opportunities. A well-functioning Internet makes everyday life easier.

Many things can be done quickly with a smartphone in Germany. In recent years, more and more free networks with public Wi-Fi have been set up in German cities. Here, consumers can connect to public Wi-Fi quickly and free of charge. As a result, the Internet can also be used without a flat rate or the private data volume is spared. But even if you are visiting an unfamiliar city, you can use the free Internet access to quickly get an overview of great sights or the right route to your destination. This option not only saves time, it also makes it easy to find your way around new cities. Some people even use their smartphones as sat navs in their cars.

With the right app, the devices can easily be used as such. If they are supplied with fast internet or connect to a local public network, they provide drivers with a good overview, even in cities they have never visited before. These options save time in many important situations and ensure that you don't drive through the city disorientated. Both privately and professionally, people in Germany benefit from a well-developed mobile phone network and a fast Internet connection. Many households also take advantage of special offers that give them access to unlimited data volume at a favourable price.

In this case, streaming services can also be used. They provide many people with a home cinema where they can select exactly the films they are interested in via the Internet. Thanks to fast internet, this service offers a programme that is perfectly tailored to individual interests and offers films in high resolution. Here, too, fast Internet increases the quality of life for the inhabitants of Germany. It has long since become the norm for many households in this country. And yet we simply have to be grateful to the country for this special quality of life.
