Read every word of the voiceover
Three popular RV apps, three different jobs.
Each one is judged on route building, an RV GPS that knows your rig's size, and points of interest along the way.
The planner bundles RV Trip Wizard, rig aware navigation, a large campground database, and offline maps.
The free option shines for boondocking, thanks to reviews from the wider RV community and cell coverage reports.
The directory option lists stops, but has no trip planner, and hands directions off to your maps app.
So match the app to the job.
You can plan with one app, and add a free one for reviews.
The planner sits behind a paid subscription, with a free trial for new subscribers on the annual plan.
Cancel before it ends, and you pay nothing.
