Exit Now

Anyone know why there has not been a current printing of the Exit Now Interstate Directory? I have a 2010 issue. I have been searching for a current issue for over a year. This is/was the best directory when traveling the Interstate system.

I purchased a copy of the Next Exit prior to getting a copy of Exit Now. I like both, but they do not contain the same information.

The map is Open Source.
If you check your route the night before while you are online It will stay in memory when you use it the next day while off line... I THINK?, never tried it

I'll check it out when I get the chance. I have an Android phone, and I don't know if iExit functions any differently than it does on the Apple stuff.

You don't need a smart phone, or cell service, or data service to use iExit.

It runs just fine on an iPad or iTouch (an iPod sort like an iPhone but without the phone part).
Would love to hear from anyone who has used this without a data connection! I'm all ears as we have an iPod - there would certainly be no GPS, and I would also doubt Google maps or street view... :@

Thanks for the reply and helpful explanation. ๐Ÿ™‚

You need a GPS for I-exit to know your location. My iPad does not have a GPS.

You already have heard, that's how I know it works.

We use it on iPads, iPod Touch and iPhones (Canadian one in Airplane mode) and it works just fine.

I went ahead and downloaded iExit to try out. It's a free download through the end of the year.

It surprises me that there was not enough demand for the printed version. Unless GPS's and smart phones and tablets cut into its use. We went to Alaska this past summer and used the Mile Posts and did not move everyday with out consulting the book. It was a lot more detailed with things to see and do every mile including things to watch for. Maybe Exit now was not detailed enough, meaning things other than gas stations which found was wrong many times. Particularly when you are looking for a certain brand of fuel only to discover the station listed is now a different brand.

You can still get "Next Exit" but you can't get the good one any more.

Sorry but the future is here! They did not quit printing the book do to excess demand.
I have a few older versions of Next Exit but now use the I exit App and GPS info.
