RV Notebook allows you to keep all your RV and camping information together in one place—always organized and accessible on your iPhone. RV INFO TAB – Keep track of all important details about your RV, like capacities, sizes, and everything you need when you: * Register it – Key info such as VIN/FIN numbers, purchase date, etc. * Insure it – Including insurance agent contact details. * Maintain it – Dealer and manufacturer contact details, tire information, generators, etc. * Camp with it – Size and weight info, electrical requirements, etc. * Keep track of all the related warranties like the microwave, refrigerator and other appliances that came with your RV. CAMPGROUNDS TAB – RV Notebook’s real strength lies in its campground tracking features: * Use the Nearby feature to find RV compatible campgrounds within a 300 mile radius. * Easily record all the campgrounds you have visited, including the best campsites at each campground. * Add a picture of the campground’s map to make it easy to pick your next spot. * Track campground and campsite features, and keep a record of every time you visit a campground. * Rate the campgrounds where you stay to easily return to your favorites and avoid those that don’t meet your needs. * If you’ve ever struggled to recall a great campground you’d like to revisit, RV Notebook ensures you never forget a favorite camping spot again! MY TRAVELS TAB – A visual map allows you to track where you’ve been. * RV Notebook displays a map with pins marking all the places you’ve camped—great for keeping up with how many places you’ve visited. * Use the Journey Map to visually show the places you’ve visited and the routes in between over a set period of time—Take a screen shot of your journey map and share it with friends and family. You can even save the Journey Map as a PDF file. * The Add My Current Location feature creates a new campground entry using geo coordinates for the places you camp that may not have an address. Great for ‘off grid’ campers. UTILITIES TAB – RV Notebook includes a number of useful tools: * CAMPER LEVEL – Level your travel trailer or pop-up without assistance. Simply place it in the doorway of your camper, adjust the front jack, and let the audible tones guide you to a level camper. No more back-and-forth checking! * CHECKLISTS – Detailed checklists help you efficiently and safely set up and take down your RV and campsite. When the season’s over, use the winterization checklists to prepare your RV for storage. There are also supplies checklists to help you get organized about what to bring.
