    There are so many obscure interesting places and sites to see in this app. Absolutely amazing. Thank you

    This is the best app to make a family road trip wacky fun! Whether it’s the shoe shaped house or Captain Kirk’s future birthplace, the most humdrum trip is so much better with a few mind bending stops.
  • Fun, but hard to find everything!

    I really enjoy the amount of attractions offered, but it’s very difficult to make sure I don’t miss anything interesting. I would LOVE if you would make the map work so that when I scroll around, it shows all the attractions. Having to push the “show attractions in this area” only shows attractions local to the center of the screen, and I miss many. It would also really help to open the app and have the map appear directly. I would also like a search function. If, for example, I want to find all the Bigfoot-themed attractions on the app, there’s no way to do so. :(

    We’ve used this app for years while traveling around the US. We’ve seen so many neat, unique things because of Roadside America. The app is easy to search, the information and pictures about each place make them easy to find. With this app are able to appreciate each location even more. We recommend Roadside America to everyone we talk to about travel.

    The app was fun at first, but crashes an freezes so often than it’s unreliable and I’ve moved on. Fun while it lasted!

    I use to ❤️ this app! Every time we traveled & went anywhere, I always went to my app faithfully. I just got a new phone again & went 2 download my app & am having nothing but issues! I have paid for the app several years ago. Every time I got a new phone I’ve never had an issue reloading the app. Can someone please fix the issue … this is a great app & lots of fun to use when traveling on the road! Makes it less BORING to travel!! 🙏🏼

    Five years ago I used this app as I traveled the US. It was always up to date and they published my tips quickly. Now the attractions are out of date. I sent in tips on several attractions no longer in existence with no response. Don’t waste your time.
