It would be nice if there was a sticky thread for feature requests and feedback about RVTW from users.

One feature I would suggest is a way to toggle the classic driving radius circles on or off without having to go in to trip settings, similar to how you can toggle campgrounds and POIs on or off.

We have a radius toggle on our enhancements list. No ETA.

How about a toggle to reverse a planned trip? Basically make the starting point (and subsequent stops) the end point and vice versa...

Sue46 · 03-11-2021, 12:32 PM

You essentially have that with the round trip option, mirror stops. This reverses your trip and then you need to delete the initial stops which is easily done with delete stops under the wrench.

We do have a request in for a true reverse trip option. No ETA.

How about a way to toggle off a destination to see how the route changes without having to delete the destination and then add it back in. Also how about if you hoover over a leg of the trip you get a little bubble right on the screen with the time of that leg and the distance, these would be very nice.

I am NOT AT ALL a fan of the way you have hidden the toggles for Campgrounds and POIs! I have used RVTW exclusively for the last 4-5 years, and use those toggles constantly as I plan extensive trips. It was so easy when they were right there at the top of the map. What used to require one tap to see campgrounds now requires THREE taps (Map Settings, Campgrounds, Map Settings) to see them, and then THREE taps again to make them go away. Improvements generally mean streamlining ... this change just bogs me down. I hope you consider putting it back to the way it was before.

The toggles are still at the top of the map in the same area. Filters are to the left of the Map Settings button, Campgrounds & POIs are to the right.

I’m learning RVTW and so far so good. Three feature requests that I would like to see is:

1. fuel stop to fuel stop fuel price estimates rather than last stop (which could be a campground) to fuel stop fuel estimates.

2. MPG estimator. It has how many miles and if I put in how many actual gallons it took to fill up then it could tell the actual mileage.

3. Ability to set leave time and stay time so it can calculate how long the trip will take. This is a feature in inRoute that I really like.

I use RVTW as a way to estimate a trips expense and so much more. I purchased inRoute years ago and it’s awesome for planning the drive including fuel stops, elevation, wind direction, and weather but RVTW is more encompassing for a total trip plan. Hopefully, at least the first feature will be worked on.

Are you responding to my comment, EMY92? I know that they are up there, my beef is that I used to be able to “click” and see the campgrounds or POIs, then “click” and not see them ... now it takes 3 “clicks” to see and 3 to hide them. I can’t imagine why they did that. I can’t be the only one who plans long routes and clicks them on and off frequently. Instead of streamlining my process, they have added to it. I know, I know, clicking three times instead of once probably sounds stupid to some ... those folks probably don’t plan cross country routes like I do.

@Bobalouie2, I don't understand what you are saying about the campground and POI toggles. They are there in the top right of the page just after Map Settings. The campgrounds toggle is a tent and the POI toggle is a push pin.

I have noticed that the POI toggle only works when I am zoomed in to my route enough.

-HTH

@SillyAnn - maybe your app hasn’t updated yet. Mine updated a few days ago and now the campground and POI toggles are located within the “Map Settings” button at top right.

Sue46 · 04-13-2021, 06:17 AM

Use the buttons to the right of Map Settings. One is campgrounds and one is POIs.

HiWay-OurWay · 04-13-2021, 09:01 PM

Bobalouie2,
The buttons others are referring to are shown circled in purple in the image posted below.
You only have to click one to toggle between "displayed" or "hidden" for either the campground icon or the POI icon. There is no need to open up "Map Settings and then select these items to switch on or off.

I have talked many of my friends and followers into subscribing the TW. I send them my trips to start with and they learn by modifying them. We exchange trips from time to time to figure out crossing points for a meet up.

I would like their email address to save so that I could just select it as a previously used email address. I now have to go to my contact app and look up their address.

Thank you for this great product. I have used it since 2015 before the changing of ownership. The addition of RV Life features has really stepped up the value!

May all your camp sites be level.
