This has the potential of being a great app, but as is, its mostly just frustrating. I have yet to figure out how to delete a pin once it’s placed without deleting the entire file and starting all over. There also does not appear to be a search function in HELP. If there is and I’m missing it, that’s just more evidence of being non-user friendly. The developers would do themselves a huge favor to study Microsoft Streets and Trips for useful features and intuitive user interface.

First let me say I’ve been using computers for a very long time and I can generally figure things out pretty quickly using the trial and error approach. Appreciated being able to try a free version before buying the full version. So I started with trial and error and soon realized that wasn’t working for me. No problem, I’ll use the tutorial. Swiped through the examples and thought “cool” this is easy. So, started a pretend trip, which should have been pretty easy. Home to 2 poi to home. Got the home in. Even got the first location in. Couldn’t figure out how to add the second location because the + sign wouldn’t come up again. Back to the tutorial. Went through that again. Started over. Same issues. Played with it for about an hour or so and finally decided to move on. I agree with the person who commented about Streets and Trips, not because I’m looking to go back to a pc but for its functions and ease of use. The developers snarky comment to a helpful suggestion from a customer told me all I needed to know.

Before you can even plan a trip, you have to buy the app unless you want unsaved edits. Total rip-off.

App doesn’t work. Help is non existent unless you join a google group, but the email address to join does not show in the directions. Created a .GPX on my computer (round trip from Ks to MA, with hotel, dates info). Tried opening file in RTP, brought in 25000 POI pins, didn’t recognize my route, no hotel info. Very dissatisfied.

Fails to advise you can’t save your trip unless you save. Bait and switch.

I downloaded the app for the elevation feature that is advertised but foe the life of me I can’t figure out how to access it. I wrote to “support “ and all they did was refer me to the online help page which only says that the elevation chart is very handy but don’t show how to access it! So far this app doesn’t appear to be what it claims.

I’ve spent a lot of time searching for a trip planner, this one is beyond my expectations. The tutorial is just the get started guide. I’m traveling full time in our 5th wheel trailer. I downloaded this app after starting this seasons trip. Many of the features available were not in the tutorial but in the sample, so don’t forget to check it out. When entering dates and times I found the travel time was added in the data. One of the best parts in this app is the ability to edit the errors easily. Bottom line I’m loving it!
