RoadAhead Highway Exit Finder Screenshots

Description

RoadAhead helps you find the best exit ahead on the highway for all your travel needs. RoadAhead automatically locates you on a highway, searches based on your categories, and displays merchants at upcoming exits – with user ratings, gas prices, distance from exit, and other helpful info.

Heres what the media has been saying about RoadAhead:

“Because we don't double back, kids. If you wanted to go to Burger King, you should have told me 30 miles ago.” – Rafe Needleman, cnet – RoadAhead: Savior of the long-distance driver?

“What if you could compare the gas prices of the stations at the next exit, versus those 30 miles down the road? What if you could make sure you never drove past another doughnut shop with a five-star rating on Yelp?” – Scott Kirsner, Globe Columnist, Innovation Economy RoadAhead, organizes the world by exit

“RoadAhead is not your typical location-based app that simply tells you the amenities around you…” Best App: Find What's off the Next Highway Exit

One of the joys of writing for TUAW is being able to devote some time to finding apps that are unique and make life easier for our readers. Mel Martin, TUAW RoadAhead is a different and clever nav app

Have you ever stopped off the highway for a quick caffeine jolt — and then wanted to toss the bitter-tasting brew out the window as you whiz by a Starbucks five minutes down the road? Automotive App of the Week: RoadAhead

“..but if your question is, 'Where am I going?,' look to RoadAhead for answers.”, Seth Kugel, NY Times Travel Section

Unlike other travel apps, RoadAhead organizes merchants by what is ahead and what is convenient to the exit:

It knows which highway you are on, the direction you are traveling and the upcoming exits – for every exit on all highways in the US.
It organizes merchants by the exits ahead, and doesn't bother you with stuff behind or around you.
Other apps help you find gas OR food, but what if you want to optimize the stop with gas AND food AND groceries?
It presents results in an easy to read list with ratings, prices and distance/direction from exit.
It keeps the next exit at the top of the list, so you see what's coming up at a glance.
Use it when you're not on the highway to plan your trip – just select the road and exits to search or search Nearby to find local merchants
Get coupons and offers for restaurants, hotels, and shopping that match your criteria, organized by exit
Unlike many road signs, it doesnt mislead about how close or far the merchant is off the exit.

Please note that RoadAhead is designed to work on limited access highways, e.g. highways with exits – interstates, intrastates, state routes, and beltways. If you are not on a highway, RoadAhead can search nearby your current location.

One last, important thing – USING YOUR PHONE WHILE DRIVING IS A BAD IDEA (and in some states illegal). Hand your phone to your passenger and ask them to navigate. Please use good judgment when using your phone in the car.

Customer Reviews

Extremely helpful (5 stars)
The wife and I love this app. We use it all the time when traveling. If we're in a strange (to us) town it's so easy to find a coffee shop, restaurant (fast food or sit down), a grocery store or just about anything else a traveler needs.

No idea how they select what establishments get displayed and who doesn't.

Great support! (5 stars)
The minute you need anything, help, response to a comment, whatever, you will get a fast response, and from the CEO of the company, no less. These folks really want us users to have a good experience.
