Crashes on launch

I am using IOS 13.6 on iPhone 8 Plus. The app will launch, but consistently crashes after a few seconds. Looking forward to using the GPS function if it would work.

Less useful than what I expected

This app was okay but I wonder if I were mostly on back roads instead of the interstate if it would have been accurate for things like overpasses. The highways were not clear as it would use a name such as “general John Doe highway” instead of simply stating I-78. Even worse, upon approach of a highway it would say to enter but not specify something like I-78 north or south until you were already on it! Also would be nice if instead of stating “keep left” it lets you know to stay in the left two lanes. When one does not know the area one gets all the way left only to soon realize that I was okay in 3 out of 4 lanes and pushed my way over for nothing. Not ideal in an RV. A list of RV friendly gas stations would have been a nice feature to have. Dump stations would also be a nice list to add in especially if they are along/on the interstate instead of having to drive with full tanks until getting to a known area that has one hundreds of miles away. Bottom line is it is an okay app with plenty of room for improvements and left me skeptical of its actual accuracy and reliability.

App crashes as soon as I open it.

GPS not helpful

I tried using this app’s GPS functionality several times to disappointing results. One time the directions were to go down a scenic loop road in a large state park, then turn down a 8 mile long dirt road. The better option would have been to go 10 more minutes north to a large highway. A second attempt to use this app provided no route, despite removing all avoidances. Google Maps easily routed me down a safe route instead. A third attempt routed me down several small state highways and would have added an hour to my trip. All in all I’m disappointed with this app as I had high hopes it would be my go-to GPS while full-timing around the US. I emailed support asking for a refund and was told I could cancel my subscription through iCloud subscription settings but was not offered a refund.

Good site!

Good site, the only problem I see is that some information/rates are not updated. I can understand this. It’s got to be difficult to get updates from operators. Just expect that information might not be as described. Overall very good site, thanks RV Life

Trouble editing & adding pictures

I have tried three times to add four photos of campground I just reviewed. Gets stuck on “post” after adding topic and description of each picture! I had posted the pics on the original site but they didnt appear with review. No notification is sent to tell you if your Review has been published; perhaps not enough administrators? Why was the original site migrated to this Seller Knowledge application?

First trip using RV Life

Trip was from Delaware to Florida, everything was not bad until RV Friendly directions started to lead me to the center of Washington DC. I had to drive on the parkway with no trucks allowed so I saw the signto get back to I-95. On the way back it also tried to take me to Washington DC but I had in addition my truck nav and google maps and followed google maps direction. Disappointed.

Dangerous road

I have a 41 foot fifth wheel. This app asked me what I have and still took me down a dangerous road with hair pin turns and not wide enough for us and an oncoming car. Please don’t trust this app.

Perfect RV App

Great app for looking up campgrounds and then getting to them!

Preferred Original RV Park Reviews App

What used to be a simple to use app that let me quickly look for rv parks and review the basics has turned into a “monster” of an app that is filled with features that are of little value to me. In my opinion, its complexity and an user experience that is now far from intuitive and is no longer worth my time to use. Given that the reviews are provided by users who receive no compensation from whoever produces this app, one would think they would be more attentive to the users’ constructive feedback and not resort to patronizing responses that attempt to convince the user how much better the app has become. Accordingly, after posting over 100 reviews in the past, I have also ceased submitting new reviews.
