Maybe I don’t have it setup correctly

I live near NY and Connecticut which has Parkways with very low bridges and no trucks or RV’s are allowed. I did use a truck app that did well but no CarPlay. I download this app because it had CarPlay and it is
for Rv’s. Now my comments, 1st when you use CarPlay you get the map but no other info unless you look at the phone. Example, how far is it to your exit. If you’re listening to your radio and the app announcement comes on, your radio stops playing until you select it again. Lastly, on my last trip (190 miles) the app lockup 4 times.

Good idea for this app but it needs a lot of updating

Highly Reliable

My wife and I have been full-time since May 2014. We were not initially aware of SmartRoute; I do not recall exactly when we found it, probably something my wife came across. For us it has saved us a number of times from routes from Google that have vertical clearance issues, weather closures in three round trips from Albany, Oregon to Raleigh, North Carolina with excursions to sightsee or visit family/friends in both directions. It has never failed to get us to/from an Interstate and an RV park without incident or clear routing through a urban area involving multiple interchanges beltways or other interstate highways.

Best one so far

Have used this app for trips across 10 states so far and with one exception, it gave us the best routing for our RV. Verbal and other audio alerts are helpful as is the ability to customize what the map shows and what alerts are received, e.g., truck stops by name and distance. The one exception for good routing took us through a dense urban area for about a mile- there was significant road construction everywhere so that may have been the reason. Overall, very satisfied and renewed the subscription.

RV APP?

This is a truckers app ! It appears to like city traffic.

Has issues

Gave us bad directions. We were heading down the Pennsylvania Turnpike and were told to “make a right”, which wasn’t an exit but the access road! Which of course was gated closed so couldn’t use it even if we wanted to. We went 30 minutes further out of our way to get to our destination.

I would NOT recommend this app. I got it because we were heading cross country from Lake Ozark to Tupelo, MS. It seemed to work OK to Memphis although I missed a gas stop due to a road name change that had not been made. I also could not find a location for the RV Park, it was in the listing but did not seem to know where it was. The worst part was going through Memphis where it led us onto surface streets in not great condition and traffic lights rather than four lane limited access routes. NOT RV FRIENDLY!!!

Awful

The app wanted to take me hours out of my way to avoid parkways as compared to planning the trip manually which also avoided parkways. Also routed me through the woods and over a lake.
Worse yet, I spent all day (less than 24 hours from purchase) to get a refund and, in the end, they responded “call Apple”
I guess I lose my $9.99. So glad I didn’t purchase a bigger subscription.
Don’t waste your time. I would have been better off with a paper map.
