Rv Trip Wizard question

How can I get a trip I planned on Trip Wizard onto my cell phone and use the planned trip on Google Maps.

I don't have a standalone GPS nor do I have a Computer, we only have our phones and a 10" Galaxy Tablet running Android 7.

Thanks

Ron W.

    Ken, I downloaded and installed the RV Life app. I wasn't aware it integrated with RV Trip Wizard. That's awesome! Does it use Google Maps as it's source mapping? If it does, your information just saved me a bunch of time!


    in your settings you can choose between Apple Maps and Google maps if you have an iPhone.

  • I create my trip in RV Trip Wizard and then log in to my google account and re-create it making sure I add the same stops using the exact addresses along the route. If Google Maps wants to send me a different way, I drag the route to match RV Trip Wizard. If I still have a hard time and Google maps is stubborn, like near a city bypass or something like that, I zoom in and I create a stop/waypoint so it forces it to take the route I want even though I'm not stopping there. It sounds more complicated and time consuming than it is. Then I send the trip I created with Google maps to my cell phone so I have it for when I'm taking the trip essentially saving it until I no longer want or need it.
