Directions are available while using either the Roadtrippers website or the app.
If using the website, you can view step by step directions and a map of your entire trip. Then, before hitting the road, you can print those directions!
The Roadtrippers app provides live navigation from one waypoint to another using either Roadtrippers navigation or your preferred navigation app.
Routing Options
You can apply Routing Options (avoidances and RV safety) when planning or navigating your trip! See our Guide to Routing Options and RV Friendly Navigation to learn more!
Click a tab below to learn more about viewing directions on the website or navigating using the iOS or Android apps.
To see directions while using the website, open your trip in Guide View. If you're currently on the map view, scroll to and click the 'View Guide' button. You may need to click the arrow navigator in the options bar to find the View Guide button.
Your trip should now be open as a Guide. Hover your cursor over the three horizontal dots next to 'Featured Trip Guides' toward the right of the page. Click 'Directions'.
Clicking Directions will pull up a map of your route as well as step-by-step directions. Once open, you can also print these directions by using your browser's print button. You can learn more about printing by clicking here.
For a video demo of how to find directions while using the Roadtrippers website tap play below:The Roadtrippers app allows you to use our in-app navigation or a navigation app already installed on your mobile device like Google Maps or Waze. Roadtrippers does not provide continuous navigation for your full trip, but you can navigate from waypoint to waypoint. If you'd like to see us introduce a solution for full trip continuous navigation let us know!
Starting Navigation
- With a trip loaded on the map, open the Trip Planner by tapping the green trip name layer above the Map and Trip Guide tabs.
- Tap the waypoint you are traveling to and tap Navigate from the list of options that display.
- After tapping Navigate you will be offered routing options. Apply any avoidances or RV safety preferences, then tap Select Route.
- You will see a preview of the most efficient route on the map, alternate routes, and can preview step-by-step directions.
Route Variance
Keep in mind that if you choose to navigate with a separate app your route will completely depend on how that app provides directions. If you use our Roadtrippers in-app navigation rather than another navigation app, the directions should stay very close to your trip's route.
Quick Tip
You can also start navigation to a place by opening the place's page and tapping the Navigate button.
