DogMaps

Every dog person knows the feeling. You're two hours down the highway, the dog is doing the thing in the back seat, and you have no idea where the next decent place to stop actually is. Dog Maps answers that in one tap. I NEED TO STOP One button. Instantly ranked places to pull over near you, sorted by what's genuinely close and genuinely usable.. including dog parks, trailheads, rest areas, and open public land. No scrolling, no guessing, no pulling into a gas station hoping for a patch of grass. WHAT YOU'LL FIND - 18,000+ dog parks across the country - 10,000+ trailheads - 3,700+ highway rest areas - 24/7 emergency vets with one-tap calling - Regular vets and clinics - Beaches, with their actual leash rules - Off-leash and on-leash areas, labeled honestly THE PUBLIC LAND MAP This is the part nobody else does properly. Dog Maps draws National Forest, BLM, National Park, state and local land right on the map, so you can see at a glance where you're actually allowed to take your dog. And it only paints land that's open.. closed and restricted parcels are never shown as usable. If it's green, you can probably be there. TRIP PLANNER Tell it where you're headed and when you're leaving. It builds a break schedule along the route at the cadence you pick, shows what each detour costs in minutes rather than miles, and hands the whole multi-stop route to Apple Maps when you're ready to drive. WHAT'S BETWEEN YOU AND THERE Active wildfire perimeters and National Weather Service warnings overlay the map, so you can see what's on your route before you commit to it. Hazard data can lag.. always confirm urgent conditions with official sources. DOG MAPS PRO A single one-time purchase unlocks unlimited trip planning, the full public land map, surface water layers, and every hazard overlay. No subscription, ever. BUILT THE WAY IT SHOULD BE No account. No sign-up. No reviews to wade through, no feed, no social anything. It opens to a map and it tells you where to go. Made by one person who drives a lot, with dogs.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Planafy at none against DogMaps's 1. Planafy also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). DogMaps's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price there is nothing between them.
