The App tracks your position, so no matter where you are when an alert is issued, you will receive notifications that affect you right on your mobile device.

my favorite app is the "off button and leaving it in the console" it comes in handy all the time

Great list. I'll add:

Ulysse Speedometer (great speed overlay on Google Maps with the paid version)
My Tracks (tracks the route of where you have been, elevation gain, etc.)
Navier HUD (Heads-up display for speed + other info, customizable screen layout)
Google Sky
My better half
DS-18,DD-17,DS-15,DS-15 (4 teenagers, in da house)
Summit Red Sunshine-4
Brandy Red Sunshine-At the bridge

The greatest thing you ever can do now,
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now,
It's very easy just...

The more common ones like Weather Channel, Gas Buddy for sure. Also have some for federal parks, TN state parks, Good Sam and an assortment of others. Still find it strange that Camping World doesn't have their own app, but now they're part of GS, so guess that counts. Sorta. Also have Pilot/Flying J and Love's since that seems to be where we end up most of the time....easy in and easy out in most cases.
Trailerless but still have the spirit

NOAA Weather Free lets you see current weather where ever you're located. It also includes radar and you can save three other locations. I used it regularly on our recent trip in May and found it very valuable.

I use Weatherbug a lot to watch the radar and make sure we're not running into bad weather.

We use Allstays, for Rv parks, truck stops for diesel fuel, and low clearance roads.

We use Rest Stops to know where the next rest stop is.

We use Navigation along with our GPS to keep us from messing up.

the DW wont stop talking about TripJournal. I personally like gasbuddy, and key ring rewards. I have tried countless others but I dont really use them. Have a look at this RV app list if your looking for other ideas.

Parkfinder

I like the ease of clicking on an icon to pick what amenity you need the park to have instead of reading thru pages on a website only to find out it doesn't have what you want!

We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned,
so as to have the life that is waiting for us.

I really like rvparky & just found navigation. I use the free apps. Low clearance app, aitaonline (not an app).
