The iExit Interstate Exit Guide is a must-have on your next road trip. It figures out where you are on the Interstate, and shows you what's ahead. Need gas? iExit knows all the gas prices in the United States, and can tell you which station is cheapest at each exit. It also makes it easy to compare prices by the exits ahead, letting you know exactly where to exit to save the most. It works for Unleaded, Mid Grade, Premium, and Diesel. Need food? iExit has you covered, no matter if you're looking for the usual fast food or something local. It also integrates Yelp ratings and reviews to help you decide. Need a place to stay for the night? iExit lists all hotels within 3 miles of an exit ramp. But if you're looking for a deal, we have thousands of same-day discounted rates that are cheaper than you'll find anywhere else. Looking for a specific chain, like Cracker Barrel? Or maybe a specific amenity, like WiFi? Or maybe a rest area? Just search for it and we'll show you the exits ahead with a match. Don't take another road trip without iExit! ** Important Notes ** ● Your device must have GPS hardware or a connection to the internet for iExit to display results based on your location. ● iExit is compatible with iOS 15.0 and later. ● iExit only works in the United States on limited access highways, most of which are official Interstate highways.
