Description

App includes 1 region you choose from 7 oddity-rich U.S./Canada regions. Purchase more ($1.99/region) or all remaining regions ($6.99 more). The roadside attraction gurus at Roadside America have spent decades exploring the weird, amusing wonders on America’s highways. The app puts that expertise at your fingertips for your own adventures. Roadside America's fun stories, unique photos, and tipster reports guide you to less traveled places just off the next exit.

App includes your choice of one permanent U.S./Canada region (see region states list below*). Optional in-app purchases require sign-up for a Roadside America account to unlock more or all regions ("All Access").

• Car & Driver: "All the Route 66–type classics, from neon signs to 25-foot-tall muffler men." • Popular Science: “This Holy Grail of road-trip apps has all the features you could want from a directory of the country’s quirkiest and most eclectic attractions.” • Thrillist: "An absolute must for fans of animatronic roadside dinosaurs and kitschy rest stops."

Where is “restore previous purchased”

JimAtVerizon on

Original review: “I paid for access to the whole United States a few years ago and used it several times, but rarely used the app afterwards. I just noticed my app has updated and now I have no US access and it’s shows I need to pick a single free region. I do not see a button to “restore previous purchases”. What gives??!” Update:A few days after I posted the above initial review, the developer responded to my issue and after a couple of emails they figured out why I was having an issue (I had updated my email account) and told me how to resolve it. I’m up and running. I’m very impressed with a developer who took the time and effort to fix my problem on an app I purchased almost eight years ago. Excellent app and excellent Developer!

App only partially functional for the price

no food for me on

I didn’t purchase the app to be restricted to one of 6 regions. Other regions available for extra money? Nah you got me once, deleting the app.

Awful App

slyvers513 on

Paid for the app to try and find attractions on my cross country road trip but the app will not allow me to go more than 1000 miles even with regions open. Not worth it.

Favorite App for a trip

wall pics on

I absolutely love this app. I have been visiting roadside America when is was just a website before apps existed. RA makes all of our trips fun and memorable!

App not easy

Mauitdub on

Paid for all regions, but cannot navigate thru app. Will stop payment

Review

Myh-3140 on

Very poor and difficult to use still struggling

Essential for everyone!

Jack's Cats on

This well designed, easy to navigate app is a must have for anyone living in, visiting, or having any interested whatsoever in the U.S. of A!

Accurate!

GrammieNC on

I love this app that my grandson found! We now explore nearby sites but off the main drag that offer art, history and more with little or no inconvenience. Love it!

Trying to access

MicMinneman on

I opened the app and selected region of interest and then nothing. Can’t post for or access anything. Just stuck on opening page. What a bust

Numerous

Teb53 on

There are so many obscure interesting places and sites to see in this app. Absolutely amazing. Thank you
