iPad apps

[soundsuperio]

What are the "must have" apps for an iPad used in the RV?
I will need maps and travel info including such things as parks, dump and water stations, etc. I am switching from a windows tablet to the iPad.
Thanks

Here are two suggestions:
AllStays Camp and RV. Shows campgrounds around what ever area you select. Als has links to park reviews.

AllStays Teuck and Travel. Shows low clearence truck stops, Teuck repair shops around what ever area you select.

RadarScope -- shows realtime precipitation with storm movement ad all weather watches and warnings. Used by many storm chasers. A friend recommended it after we were caught in a bad hailstorm in Arkansas. Best $10 ever spent!

Gas Buddy. Find the best fuel prices. Always check before crossing state lines -- state taxes can make a huge difference.

Howdy!

RVparky is a good free app. I use GasBuddy to find fuel. I also use Co-Pilot gps app on my smartphone and tablet. It has a RV setting in the app.

I use an iPad and prefer the full site. I do have to use the app if I want to post a photo, though. Is that likely to change?

The iPad/iPhone apps we use include:

Allstays (Primary app for finding campgrounds / overnight stops)
RV Parky (additional app for finding campgrounds / overnight stops
SaniDumps (App for finding dump stations)
Launch Sites (Apps for finding boat ramps / places to "put in" kayaks)
Trucker Path (Recent add - used to locate truck stops, truck parking sites and rest areas)

Gas Buddy (App for finding fuel stations)
Coverage! (used to examine cellular coverage available at a given location)

Google Maps (Routes and directions to an address - satellite mode for aerial look at destinations (campgrounds, fuel stops, etc.)

OneNote (used to organize trip related information)
Excel (used to access coach maintenance log / coach fuel log)
OrganiDoc (used to manage PDF files - containing coach documentations (owner manuals for coach, major components, etc.)
Quicken Mobile (for tracking spending while traveling)

iExit is a good one.
Shows you what's at the next exits coming up and if they are RV friendly.
We also use Rest Stops app to find the next rest stop.

Solar Tilt & Sun Surveyor Light if you have solar and do boondocking.

I use Ikiru for my checklists!

I use Evernote for everything. I have a camping notebook where I have checklists for what to bring out to the camper, to checklists for getting underway. I also have electronic copies of manuals stored in Evernote. I keep a campground journal for every place we stay at. Nothing crazy. Just things like what site we had, price we paid, what sites we'd like stay at if we come back and campground info. It syncs across devices so you can start on your mac or pc and then pick it up on your iPad or iPhone. It's free for some basic stuff but I've been a premium member for a couple of years which basically gives you unlimited storage.

Add Waze to the list. Great for navigation with real time traffic and hazard info.
All stays is another must have.
The jury is still out on in route for me.
IExit is also on the maybe maybe not list as well.

In addition to many of the ones mentioned, I use "Day One" as a daily journal and an app called "TV Towers" by Generally Helpful Software to locate OTA tv.
