Horrible update

So much harder to search stops on the map, many stops won’t even let you click to get directions or look it up if they are clustered together. You broke what didn’t need to be fixed to put more ads in.

Very useful, tons of rest stops

I’ve been using this app for years. The latest update was a little rough but it seems to be trending in the right direction. I’m glad the state tab is back. The route feature is still neat so I can see every stop on my route. Still the best rest stop app out there in my opinion despite the ads (which are much better now than before).

Fraud on credit card

The app does not work last me it used to work. Makes you put in a credit card but says is free. Then fraudulent charges appeared on my credit card. I had to cancel the card. Used to be a great site for finding rest areas where me travelling throughout the USA. So disappointed.

Poor App Update

New update has REMOVED the ability to write a review for a specific rest area, unless you are able to “ check in “ at the rest area. If you are forced to pass a rest area that was showing in the app as OPEN, but then discover that it is CLOSED as you drive by it, you won’t have the ability to “ check in “ and leave an updated message to fellow drivers that it is actually CLOSED. The new Ad feature is very annoying as well, but it’s understandable that it’s needed to generate revenue.

Response from developer

Thank you for the feedback. The comments were removed to prevent spam and inappropriate messages. You can mark a rest stop as closed by tapping the "Edit" button in the middle of the screen when you view the rest stop. From there you can mark it as closed and tap the "Submit" button.

Upgrade sucks

Pop up ads that can’t be dismissed. Forced to sign into Google or Apple. Can’t search by highway. You’ve ruined your app
