Truckers Path

Anyone else using this app? Downloaded it yesterday and it seems fairly accurate and easy to use. I know @PackRatTDI has mentioned it just curious what y'all think about it.

 

I use it a lot. Never found it to be wrong but there's a fair amount of stops missing.

 

I use it every day.

The only draw back (if you can call it that) is since it's user input based, sometimes the info is out of date.

I have seen the odd time a scale was listed as closed when it was open and vice versa. Sometimes the mom-and-pop truck stops haven't had the parking updated for a few days.

I have found more interesting, non-fast food, old school truck stops with this app in a few months than the whole 5 years put together. Without knowing if there was parking, if they were open at night, and what kind of places they were it was always easier to hit up the big name chains, since the lots tend to be well lit and there's grub/coffee all night as well as fuel and showers. Now that I can see that info, I prefer to avoid the biggies except for fuel (company fuel card)

 

Great app... I use it everyday, Great for planning your stops.

 

There are already plenty of threads on it here.

I found it on the Amazon app store and downloaded it. Won't work unless you've got Google Play services, which I don't...so I deleted it.

 

It works on iPhone without Google Play services. I assume that's an Android thing?

 

Good app for finding stops along the way. I wouldn't put too much faith in the user feedback part though. I got a picture in my mind of a weigh station employee with this on his phone and he keeps reporting the scale as closed

 

Between the cb and the app its a sure go if the scale is open or not. I use it a lot.

 

I'd say CB is a little more reliable if anyone has it on or will answer anymore.
