Description

RV LIFE is the app where wanderlust and wisdom intersect. It's a place to share experiences and inspire confidence to conquer the adventure ahead. Trusted by millions of RVers, RV LIFE helps you locate the perfect campgrounds, navigate your RV safely, and journey with confidence. Install our free app today to elevate your RV adventures and join our thriving community of trusted RVers. • Crafted by RVers, for RVers: As RVers, we've experienced the limitations of car-based GPS apps and the frustration of needing an app to work when you are offline. Designed specifically for RVers (sorry, tent campers), we've developed an RV-specific platform for researching, trip planning, navigation, maintenance tracking, and more. The most important features of our app, our campground directory, and map plus the GPS’ turn-by-turn directions function offline in remote locations with no internet. • Customized RV Safe GPS: Our navigation, customized for your RV's height, length, and weight, ensures you avoid low clearances, hazardous mountain passes, and inappropriate guidance that comes from using car-based GPS services. Enjoy turn-by-turn, offline directions, voice navigation, lane guidance, and real-time traffic alerts. • The Unrivaled Authority in RV Park Directories: For decades, we have been the go-to directory for RVers. Explore every RV campground, RV park, and RV resort, easily accessible through our intuitive map-based interface. With over ten million data points derived from firsthand insights from fellow RV travelers, we provide you with the highest quality data to ensure you are informed during your travels. Our specialized RV park database offers in-depth information relevant to RVers, such as campground amenities, internet speeds for gauging cellular coverage, feedback on sewer and water connections, lot spacing, tow vehicle parking, etc. Confidently navigate knowing you have access to world-class data crowdsourced by verified RVers. Gain insights, such as things to do, places to eat, and other advice, from fellow RVers who've journeyed there before you. Our RV-focused filters simplify the process of finding well-rated, popular RV campgrounds. You can search by type (National Parks, KOAs, BLM, etc.) and RV discount (Good Sam, Passport America, AAA). • Insider RV Tips from Fellow RVers: Take advantage of tips covering topics like RV area attractions, top dining options, and more, accessible from any RV campground's detail page. • Pro members have access to our celebrated trip planner, RV LIFE Trip Wizard. Plan your itinerary, and then easily access your trips from our app, ensuring safe navigation to your next destination. The trip planner operates in a browser, laptop, tablet, or phone. • Save More with RV LIFE Pro: Turn your phone into a reliable, RV-safe GPS and save money by upgrading instead of purchasing an expensive RV GPS device, complete with offline, turn-by-turn navigation. • Browse Thousands of Articles: Articles covering topics such as RV destinations, RV DIY projects, product reviews, and more. We're fortunate to boast over 20,000 five-star reviews from satisfied RVers who trust RV LIFE to guide their journeys. 'We use this app for everything! Love the reviews and the opportunity to learn from other campers. We've not been disappointed when finding campsites on the road. Easy to use.' - Teachr1990 Our biggest achievement isn't that major media outlets like the Washington Post, BBC, Forbes, and USA Today have sung our praises. Our real badge of honor comes from the feedback of our fellow RVers. RV LIFE is frequently featured on RV blogs and YouTube channels. The respect and trust we've earned from the RV community and the media alike—that's our north star. Let's hit the road together.

  • Very hard to use

    You can spend hours trying to create a short trip and save it for future use. All the time is spent on trying to find commands to do simple tasks. Very difficult.
  • Not user friendly

    No matter what my settings are it AWAYStakes us through small towns and takes us off the highway. Even though we could drive the highway. It always recalculates and takes an extra 2 -3 hours. It is horrible!
  • Road Incline/Decline Grade

    By theNdawg
    When using the app for navigation, I kept getting a request on certain roads to confirm there was still a significant grade in the road. I found this both annoying and unnecessary. Also, the grade should be taken into account when providing navigation. When traveling from Delaware to OhioPyle Park in Pennsylvania, the navigation put me on a road that had a steep incline, very difficult towing. The pamphlet for the Park even recommended not taking the road and taking another road due to the steep grade for larger rvs/campers.
  • No customer support

    You can’t get in contact with anyone if you are having trouble with the app. That’s unacceptable when you are paying for a service.
  • Horrible!!

    This app/subscription is awful!! You can’t actually do any planning on the app, it takes you to a web based wizard, then it doesn’t integrate smoothly into the app. And the GPS, the WORST!! Routed us through a busy city downtown district with narrow streets for no reason with plenty of alternate routes around the city that are both shorter and take less time. As if that wasn’t bad enough, it then routed us onto a dirt road, that they had the name wrong for, that was extremely steep and curvy, only to end up back on the major paved road that we turned off of in the first place, taking several extra miles and time. AND, the map kept freezing and would not work properly until you restarted the whole app and route. And all of this for the low low price of $65!! Save your money, time, and stress levels; find another app!!
  • GPS Not Great

    We used Rv life’s pro trial to test the GPS on the way to Rock Island State Park in Tennessee. Not only did it take us on narrow curvy roads, it wanted us to turn where there were no roads. I cannot recommend this for RV safe turn by turn directions.

    This site has helped with campground selection. Useful too.
  • App not ready for prime PAID use

    This app would be ok back in 2000s, but 25 years later one would expect more, especially for paid service. Here is a list of features all other FREE GPS apps have. Live traffic data updates with option to seek alternative routes. Option to seek POI while road guidance is active. While in active GPS route, no option to zoom in or out (other than pinch) or set zoom, no potion to rotate map north or drive north. Route feedback is limited to only few obstacles. Once route is active, no option to switch to other menus. Creating trips requires separate web based site and is counter intuitive it makes you wanna cry. Once you create trips, editing starting point or adding POI isn’t available. Mobile internet site will not access GPS to select starting point for the trip. The list of missing basic GPS navigation tools is so long that they should pay me to use it instead. So safe your money and find something else. To the developers, I have low expectations of you reading it and implementing the missing features as it would require you to rewrite this app from the beginning. Instead you pray on suckers like me to subscribe (for a one month).

    While this app has some nice features and maybe too many features, my need for this app is to use it when traveling and on my iphone. HOWEVER the most beneficial feature, Plannin a Trip, SELDOM works on an iphone or Droid!!! I have tried more times than i’d like to admit so finally in frustration I contacted RV Life only to find that you cannot talk to a person for support. It’s only done by chat. their chat was responsive, and insisted that the all the festures work on an iPhone, but I am proof positive that it doesn’t and my girlfriend who is very technically savvy tried it multiple times on her droid and again could not get the most important feature, trip planning, to work with any consistency or regularity. So, you have to have your laptop or desktop handy to plan your trip and make this app fully functional. NOT very user friendly when traveling.
