I just updated my cell phone and lost all of my apps. I remember that I had Good Sam, RV Parky, Sanidumps, and KOA. I think I had more but can't remember what they were. What are some good and useful apps that are out there? Any help will be appreciated.

what became of your old one? Unless it was lost or died the info you seek is on it.

I have a Moto cell phone and it actually shows how much of your data each app is using just sitting there.

I don't remember my iPhone ever providing that info! :W



Real obvious that one places apps on a cellphone that one would use.
For the record, with newer cellphones, apps can be prevented from using data "just sitting there". No need to not have apps on the phone but yes, cellphone user needs to have a clue and adjust phone settings to prevent unwarranted data usage.

My favorite campground finders are AllStays Camp & RV and The Ultimate Campground List for non commercial campgrounds.

The ones I have right now are:
GasBuddy - for gas/diesel prices
GoodRX - for when insurance won't pay and/or the discount may be bigger than what you get thru insurance
Pandora - for different music stations, free if you are ok with some ads every now and then
Audible - for books to listen to while driving
The Weather Channel - for weather on the go
CoachNet and Progressive - claims and help information at your fingertips
Base Directory, AllStays CRV Military, UC Military - all in helps of finding bases with FamCamps
Rest Stops - Locates rest areas along your route with how far they are
Hotels.com and Agoda - used both for hotels while traveling both in the US and the UK
My Credit Union apps - which ever bank/credit union you have I would access their apps to keep an eye on accounts while on the road fast

Sadly, that would be all of them.


This is my favorite Park CG app.

If you didn't have it, get Raindar. It is really good for finding out what the weather is doing FAST. There are better weather apps, but put this one on the home screen.

Google Play "remembers" all your downloads for Android based OS. For iOS, I recommend quarterly backups to a PC via iTunes. I have used both methods for very easy device replacements with minimal down time.
