Best Weed Apps to Buy Weed
1.Leafly Dispensaries
Since Leafly is one of the largest chain dispensaries that functions only where it is legal to do so, they have created a user-friendly app that allows the user to search by location, strain, or price, with many different sites that offer delivery. If you’d like to order your weed as quickly as you order a pizza than give this one a try. While areas are currently somewhat limited, they do expect to expand as licensing is given out in each region.
2. WeedMaps
The Weedmaps app uses the same technology utilized by Google to pinpoint your location. This allows the app to filter any given results showing the closest to you first. The only storefronts and delivery service options that currently exist on weed maps are in areas that marijuana is now legal for medicinal use. We all know the most reliable way to choose a good supplier is through word of mouth. This app contains well over 25000 user reviews on every service listed. They also have a separate section for personal reviews of some of the most popular strains.

Since it’s so new, there may not be a ton of listings in your area yet, but its popularity is spreading like wildfire with the number one goal of connecting stoners everywhere.

Aurora’s app lists storefronts and also provides a delivery option for those who live in their servicing area.
Who's to say what cool new and innovative apps might come out in the future, but one on the top of our Wishlist would be a "what weed is this app" that could identify the strain the camera on a phone is looking at and give information regarding it. A weed recognition app if you will.
