No ads. No logins. No add-ons. Where is the closest rest stop? Where is the next one in your direction? Or one with wifi or a RV dump? The only app that shows you directional access right on the map! What's in this Rest Stops Plus app: Thousands of Welcome centers, turn outs, service plazas, scenic vistas and rest areas in the USA and Canada broken down by heading. A detail view lists each rest stops amenities like restrooms, picnic tables, vending machines, pet-friendly, RV dump, handicap accessible, security and even wi-fi. You can now filter the map to see only the amenities you want. You’ve had it happen; you’re on a route that you don't know like the back of your hand yet. You were unfamiliar with that part of the road, so you get out your heavy books and maps to plan your next stop or you can fiddle with your GPS unit which is loaded with stuff you don't want. But the economy is causing states to close and re-open rest areas all the time. This app tries to stay current with news and user reports but there will be mistakes. You can submit corrections from each point. Rest Stops Plus has a unique filtering system. Only heading northbound and don't want to see southbound rest stops that you can't use? Only want ones with a RV Dump or Wifi? You can filter Rest Areas and Turnouts by the direction you are heading or select amenities! The Rest Stops Plus data is stored on your phone, so calling upon a website for information is not necessary. This is great for improving speed when you’re in rural areas or otherwise out of range for decent service. It integrates nicely with maps to display points of interest. Don’t take even one more trip without Rest Stops Plus. Download this app now for a more comfortable travel stop experience every time you travel. The biggest thing this app can't provide is whether they are clean.And if you want even more information, check out apps "Camp and RV" for RVers or "Truck and Travel" for truck drivers.
Not up to date
The app is good, but does not keep current
Great for boondockers!
If you ever boondock, you need this app, we plan our day around the info on this app. It stays up to date on all rest area and gives all the pertinent information you may need.
Road trips need this
Driving back and forth from FL to New England too often make this a necessity.
Better on my phone
Way more user friendly on my DROID phone.
Missing a lot of rest areas in Canada.
This only has about 25% of the actual rest areas in Canada. Made it really difficult to plan trips to include rest areas.
OK
The app is ok. It would help to be able to type in the RT # (like 75N) and have it show the stops, but you have to manually expand the screen. Also, the short view doesn’t say northbound or southbound - you have to open the location and scroll all the way down to the bottom.
It helps, but on a limited scale
I recently went on a long road trip, and was looking to avoid sleeping in hotels. I wanted an app that would show me where all of the rest areas were, so that I could plan out my sleep stops in advance. This app seemed to be rated the highest amongst competing apps, so I went for it. While it is helpful to a degree, it doesn’t come even close to listing ALL rest areas. It lists only those on major 4 lane US interstates. Rest areas on 2 lane state highways are ignored. So, for me, that largely defeated the purpose of using the app as I wasn’t looking to drive unnecessarily far to find a place to sleep. But, had I relied exclusively on this app, that’s exactly what would have happened. There was more than one instance where the nearest rest area shown in my vicinity was 50+ minutes of driving. In reality, there where rest areas on state highways within 15 or 20 minutes away.
