RV Life RV Safe GPS

To those of you who have used the RV Life RV Safe GPS app did it perform well? Pros and cons? Thanks.
  • I have found very few of the GPS Apps give you the ability to input your info, Length, Height, and weight, not saying they are all like that, just the ones I've tried.
    I'm running a Garmin 785 that has the built-in Dash Cam. It allows me to input all my info and review the route with the ability to re-direct, like using City outer loops vs straight thru the City. Has lifetime map updates and usually updates several times a year.

    Its a GPS "App" for your phone..

    I never heard of it.

    But personally, have tried GPS App CoPliot free version yrs ago, it was very highly recommended by many GPS owners here on this forum.

    For us, GPS on a mobile device it sort of worked and in typical Android fashion of quirkyness and flubs it was clunky to use, took a lot of time to acquire sat signals and best of all the screen location often failed to meet with reality often placing our position off the side of the road and in fields.

    And that was the highest most recommended GPS App 5 yrs ago on this forum, one could only hope that has improved some.

    Maps and accuracy, if it is free or substantially low cost, it may not be as good as a dedicated GPS or even using Google maps (cellphone Internet data) on your phone.
