Housing, health, free English classes and more
What apps do I use to find housing?

Domain.com.au and Realestate.com.au for formal rentals. Flatmates.com.au for share housing. Facebook Marketplace too, though it's worth verifying carefully before paying anything upfront.

What about booking a doctor's appointment?

HotDoc and HealthEngine for GP appointments. MyMedicare to link your regular GP to your Medicare account.

Where can I practise English for free?

AMEP (Adult Migrant English Program) offers free classes for eligible migrants — find it at dewr.gov.au. You can also practise with Duolingo or YouTube channels.

Any app for weather and news in Spanish?

BOM Weather is the official government weather app. SBS News has a Spanish section at sbs.com.au/language/spanish.
