    What RV related Apps do you use on your smart phones?

    We just got back from another successful outing with our 337. No problems, and pulled great. While on the road, we frequently use phone apps to make our RVing life a little easier. Here are some that we use. Would you mind sharing yours?

    GasBuddy - Allows us to search out the lowest price gasoline or diesel fuel
    Good Sam Camping - Nice app for finding Good Sam RV parks and services
    Cat Scale - App for finding Cat scales to weigh the rig if needed
    MyPilot - Convenient search tool for finding Pilot/Flying J truck stops
    KOA - Kampgrounds of America locator
    Google Earth - App version of the computer program. Allows you to get a satellite view of locations you're interested in.
    Google Sky Map - A GPS enabled tool for identifying constellations, stars, planets, etc. based upon your current location.


    I'll bet there are some other good ones that you're all using.

    Happy Trails - Jim

    I also use Allstays app. It cost but it also will route you based on towing an RV.(I think)

    Geez Dave. I like the lanyard you have so you don't lose the pen. I need one of those for my keys.

    Agree on Allstays and you can see sites up close on the map for a preview of fuel stations and campgrounds- like how big the junk yard is right beside the RV park.

    We use Google Earth when we are planning motorcycle trips - I can usually tell if a road is paved or not.....I don't do gravel :-)
