Disappointed

1
Wanted this app to work. Liked the concept. Unfortunately, the maps/gps is terrible. Was trying to route us on a route that would have added an hour to our drive for no apparent reason. Cancelled the free trial same day. Do not pay for this app.

Best travel app and gps for rv’s

Love this app and gps for traveling with my tt to other places to camp. It has always been my go to app to find great places to camp and the best way to get there safe. Love this app.

Planner is great. GPS 4.0 is good but needs work still

We are full-time RVers going strong for 1 year and have used this app for trip planning. We depend on this app 100% and even use the RV Safe GPS. Yes, the estimated eta is conservative and we always arrive at our destination earlier than the estimate compared to Waze, Apple, and Google estimates, but I think that’s because most safe RVers drive slower than the marked speed limit. There are settings for entering your max speed on the highways which you can experiment with. My only negatives are very minor with the GPS. In the older versions of the app, we only had one incident where we were directed down a back road that was was one way and narrow with tight turns where an adjacent main road would have been desired. Also, the new 4.0 version map display seems to have issues. I’ve had to kill the app and restart it to reset the map and remove splotches of graphical objects. In addition, the CarPlay map seems to be zoomed way in and I’d like to be able to zoom it out a bit. Overall, I love the app and will continue to use it. GPS part just needs some work still. I’m an app developer and sometimes wonder why they don’t just tap into the Waze or Google map API. I would especially appreciate the turn by turn voice from one of their engines rather than the robotic sounding one.

Route messed up after update in middle of teip

1
Updated app while on way home during trip. It changed next route and added almost 200 mi to next destination but cant figure out why

Must be beta release

Where to start. Whether you are going 5 mph or 70 mph the map view doesn’t pull back to you can see more area. On the highway you are past the exit before you can see whether there is gas close or not. Your speed shows ok until you get over 55. Although the speed limit was 70, the app never showed above 55. There were some routing issues as well. I got off for gas and the app tried to route me back the way I came from.

After testing and comparing, pick you poison

My wife has had a subscription for two years and like the planning tool. That is it’s strongest point. While she has used Trip Wizard, I made plans via our Good Sam membership using their planning tool. Both are web-based. TW tries to estimate fuel points. GS doesn’t. TW works with their smartphone/pad app. GS doesn’t work with any I know of. So far, TripWizard wins. I have used CoPilot’s RV capability with great success since 2017. Routing is reliable with great voice prompts very much on a par with Apple Maps or TomTom. Visual clarity with respect to exits and turns is superb. TW comes nowhere close to being competitive. CP wins, hands down. So, plan your trip with whatever you like but don’t count on RV Life for excellent audio guidance. You have to really focus on the screen more that the others to make the right moves. For shear driving, CoPilot is superior. Keep at it, RV Life, and your attempt to be “the only tool you’ll ever need” may be OK in a few more years. Until then, dream on.

New update is not an upgrade

2
We just downloaded the newest UPDATE and suddenly the Road color is now Blue which is WAY too close to the color of the route we are supposed to be following. The contrast is NOT enough to easily distinguish where to go especially when there are several roads intersecting. Also, the Highway numbers are not marked N, S, E, W so if there are other options. Finally, RV life stop using the name of highways because road sighs do use them. It’s confusing. Just stick with the Highway Number and PLEASE put the North, south, East, West. The new Update is NOT an improvement.

Wish maps were better

Just downloaded the update, drove 3 hours and the speed limit was always off.

DONT UPDATE!!!

1
Nothing works anymore. CarPlay has color blotches all over the screen, have to update maps 1 state at a time, no 3D.
By Craig Lanham

Leaves a lot to be desired.

2
The web app is great, but the companion app is mostly useless. You can use it to find campgrounds, but navigation is maddeningly inaccurate and will take you 50 miles off course only to do a uturn and head back to where you came from. There’s no way to plan a trip or add stops to a trip from the app. Struggling to understand the point of this app.
