Google Maps finds your next - Rest Stop
There are lots of apps for Android smartphone that can tell you where the rest stops are, but they don’t know where you’re going before you aren't selected the location. It can be a pain to check the rest stop app, then go back and check your GPS, then go back to the rest stop app, etc. Since Google Maps, on my smartphones, is doing my navigating, it knows the route I’m going to follow. I can ask Google Maps to search for Rest Areas along that route, and it can add one as a stop, giving me the directions. Everything you have to need, all in one app and it's the best way.
1.) By Google Maps, enter your right destination to reach and Start navigating
2.) While it is actively navigating in map, you should see your route as a bold blue line and it's your route for a destination and you should see a magnifying glass in the upper right, tap on the magnifying glass to search for things along your route, you will see a screen that looks like:
3.) Notice how you can easily search for Gas stations, Restaurants, Grocery stores, and Coffee shops, but you’re not limited to those. If you click the last button “Search” you can look for anything along your route.
4.) Tap on Search and type “Rest Stops” all the rest stops on or near your route will pop up, including information on how far off your route it is: 3 minutes
5.Tap the stop you like best rest area and Add it to Route. Google Maps will navigate to that stop. After it stop then it will pick up your route again to navigate to your final destination.
It's the easiest way to get a best rest area near by you while traveling some places.
