The RV LIFE App's Trips feature lets you view and manage the trips you’ve planned using Trip Wizard.
All the trips created on RV LIFE Trip Wizard are automatically synced to the RV LIFE App. The synced trips can be found in the Trips section of the app. This feature allows you to navigate, review, and edit your trips on the go.
Here's What's New
Create new trips from the app: You can now create trips directly from the Trips section in the RV LIFE App.
Manage existing trips in one place: The Trips section gives you one place to view and manage trip details. You can review your trip, update stops, and access trip actions from within the RV LIFE App.
Find trips by status: Trips are organized by status, such as Active, Tentative, and Archived, so it is easier to find the trip you need.
Additional Updates
Download trip data for offline use: When a trip includes stops, the app can show a Download Trip Data option so supported trip content is available offline.
Trip Tools in the RV LIFE App Trips section: Trip-related tools are now available from inside the RV LIFE Trip section.
Navigate to individual stops: Each stop includes a Navigate option, allowing you to get directions to a specific stop at any point during your trip.
Location permissions: If you use current location while creating or editing a trip, make sure location permissions are enabled for the RV LIFE App in your device settings.
Trips Section
Trips can be located at the navigation bar at the bottom of your screen. The Trips feature allows you to:
- Begin Live Navigation: Open a trip to get turn-by-turn directions tailored to your RV’s specifications, ensuring safe and efficient travel.
- Edit Trips: Make adjustments to your itinerary as needed, whether it’s adding a new stop, changing a reservation, or updating your travel dates- all from within the app.
- Access Offline: Download your trip details for offline use, so you can navigate in areas with little to no connectivity.
Tapping Trips will open up the Your Trips screen. Your Trips holds a list of your trips synced from Trip Wizard.
The trips are categorized into three sections- Active Trips, Tentative Trips, and Archive- based on how you have classified them in Trip Wizard.
- Active Trips: These are your current and upcoming trips that you’ve created in RV LIFE Trip Wizard and set as “Active”.
- Tentative Trips: These are trips you’re considering but haven’t finalized yet, and have set as “Tentative” on Trip Wizard.
- Archived Trips: These are the trips that you have set as “Archive”.
You can sort these trips by Creation Date, Start Date and Alphabetically.
Trip Overview
Selecting any trip on the Your Trips screen brings up the Trip Overview screen. The Trip Overview screen provides a detailed view of your selected trip.
At the top of the screen, you’ll see the essential trip details like the trip name, travel dates, stops, nights, distance, and estimated trip cost.
Below this information, you’ll find two buttons:
- Trip Tools Button (Wrench Icon): This button allows you to update your Trip Setting directly within your RV LIFE App
- Download Trip Data: Allows you to get maps, park details, and reviews for offline access related to your Trip
- Add a Stop: Similar to Trip Wizard in your web browser, you can Add a Stop within the Trip Drawer directly from your RV LIFE App by click the (+) button in the appropriate section of your Trip
NOTE: For a better experience, we recommend using a larger screen, such as a tablet or computer, to edit your trip in your browser.
This is followed by the trip navigation section. It is organized by days, with each day of travel separated from the next. This includes the park name, rating, and distance to the park.
To start navigating your journey on the RV LIFE App:
-
Tap on "Navigate" on the starting point. This will open the RV Safe GPS screen
- On this screen, you can select your RV, manage Route Preferences, Navigation Settings, and Add a Stop before you View Directions.

If the app cannot load your trips, you may see an error message with a Refresh option. Try refreshing. If the issue continues, contact Support. This does not mean your trips were deleted.
