Blue Ridge Pkwy Travel Planner

Paid money to have maps that won’t work, please don’t waste your money.

I tried to reach app support on this issue but the page is not available so I guess I’m on my own. I purchased the offline maps for 1.99. Not complaining about that but I purchased it on my iPad and also loaded it on my phone. It keeps asking me to purchase the offline maps and the app still has the purchase option there. Seems like everyone here has an issue with the offline map stuff. Otherwise, the app itself seems to work ok. Not sure if the app support is available and not sure who the 1.99 payments are going to. Must be nice to be able to get paid and not support the product…

Works as advertised!

Hard to use and didn’t provide much of the promised features

I am still making plans for our RV trip along the Blue Ridge Parkway and this app has a wealth of information! I Can review and chose which stops and attractions we want to visit along the way as well as get information on campgrounds to call for reservations. I can’t wait to get started traveling on it. Thank you for developing this amazing app!!

I bought this app 2 months ago and the junk emails have not stopped. Update. I bought this app 8 months ago and I’m up to 200 junk emails a DAY. Just get the free map from a ranger/visitor centers.

I went to the Blue Ridge in May and I struggled with no cell service, not being able to find a hotel, etc. This app looks like it is very helpful.

First tried to get to Access Point Switzerland (330.9). The app left us 60 minutes away. Decided to switch to an access point north of Marion (344.1). The app dumped us in Marion 30 minutes away. Had to ask for directions at the library. The map in the app looks like an old USGS map with only random city names and mostly unmarked squiggles for roads. No way to figure out where the heck you are in the mountains. The app really is just a list of some of the things you might see on the pkwy (some of them might have markers on the pkwy, some may not, and some things on the pkwy aren’t in the app). Oh - and the app doesn’t work offline even if you pay for offline maps. Another oh - and the app hasn’t been updated in over a year. Basically a dead app at this point.

Although an option to purchase offline maps exists (and I bought it), the app didn’t work without a signal. Open opening, the app would only attempt to update itself without moving on. It could not update without a signal, which happens a lot out there, which is why I paid for the $ add on. The app would just sit there, useless, while trying to update itself with no signal. Frustrating and a total waste of time in remote parts of the Parkway.

Very nice tool to have on the parkway. Been needing this for a very long time.
