Customer ReviewsGreat app! (5 stars)Driving across the country or looking for something to do nearby? Use this app! Roadside America (5 stars) This app has helped me find places I have been as an adult & as a child that I had forgotten the correct locations. I have helped add to the app listings but this app has helped add a few adventures to our families lives on weekends & vacation times we wanted something different to do & explore different cities & states. Very fun! A great addition to my travels (5 stars) I've always loved the offbeat bits featured on Roadside America. This app lets me take it with me. Love the locate me feature and the ability to send tips and photos with a click. The mapping feature has been very helpful as well. Love it!
