Help & FAQ

Use the top menu for the main travel maps and route tools: Camping, Attractions, Flattest Route, Low Bridges and Weather Center. Use the bottom menu for Trip Planner, Nearby Services, Help and Contact. If you are looking for a place to camp or stop overnight, start with Camping. If you are planning a complete trip with several stops, start with Trip Planner.

Open Camping and allow location access when your phone asks for permission. Wehamba will use your location to center the map near you. If the map is showing another area, tap My Location to return to your current area.

Use the Search Park, Town or City box on the map. Begin typing the place name and choose the correct suggestion when it appears. The map will move to that area so you can browse locations there.

Open Categories & Map Legends. Turn on the location types you want to see and turn off the ones you do not need. This also helps explain what the different map markers represent.

Choose Allow if you want features such as My Location, nearby camping, weather and nearby services to use your current position. If you previously denied permission, you may need to enable location access for Wehamba in your phone settings.

No. Each tool works independently. You can simply browse the Camping map, search Attractions, check Weather, look for Nearby Services, or build a complete trip in Trip Planner. Use only the tools you need.

Open Trip Planner from the bottom menu. Enter your Starting Point and Destination and choose the correct suggestions. Tap Plan Route. Wehamba must create the route before it can search for places or break the trip into travel days.

Wehamba draws the route, shows the total trip distance and travel time, and keeps Start as A and Destination as B. Overnight stops you add are numbered 1, 2, 3 and so on in travel order.

Choose how far you are willing to travel off the route, select the categories you want, then tap Find Locations. Wehamba shows matching places along the route. Increase the miles off route or select more categories if you want more choices.

Break Up My Trip helps divide a long route into manageable travel days. Enter approximately how many miles you want to travel per day and tap Find Overnight Stops. Wehamba creates target stopping areas along your existing route and suggests overnight locations near each target.

Yes. Change the miles-per-travel-day value and tap Find Overnight Stops again. You do not need to clear or re-enter your Start and Destination.

Tap Clear Trip first. Clear Trip removes the current route and overnight stops but keeps your Start and Destination ready for replanning. Then choose the other Break Up My Trip option and find your new stops. If you do not clear the trip first, new overnight stops may be added to the stops already on your map.

No. The suggestions are choices near each target stopping area. Use Info, Photos & Reviews to check a location first, then tap Add to Trip only for the place you want. You can also use the map to choose another suitable location.

A is your Starting Point. Numbered markers 1, 2, 3 and so on are your overnight or added stops in travel order. B is your final Destination. Your Trip also shows the distance and estimated driving time from the previous stop.

Yes. Wehamba recalculates the route and normalizes the numbered stop sequence so the itinerary remains in travel order. If you choose a different location for an existing stopping area, Wehamba can replace that stop and recalculate the trip.

Choose another suitable location when you want to change a stop and confirm the replacement when prompted. To remove a stop, use its X control in Your Trip. The remaining overnight stops are renumbered and the route is recalculated.

In Your Trip, each numbered overnight stop has an Info, Photos & Reviews button. Tap it to open the available Google location information without removing the stop from your itinerary.

Yes. Select Attractions in the Trip Planner categories, tap Find Locations, review the Attractions along your route and use Add to Trip for the ones you want to visit.

When the route and stops look right, tap Save Trip. The button changes to Saved so you know the trip was stored on this device. The long location suggestions can collapse after saving, while Your Trip remains easy to review.

Yes. The saved Trip Planner route and stops are stored on this device and can be restored when you return to Trip Planner.

Tap Directions for the stop you are ready to drive to. Wehamba hands navigation off to Google Maps for turn-by-turn directions. Return to Wehamba when you are ready for the next stop.

Clear Trip removes the planned route and added stops but keeps the Start and Destination fields so you can quickly plan the same endpoints again. Use the X beside Start or Destination when you want to clear either location completely.

Tap the X beside the Start or Destination field, enter the new place and choose the correct suggestion. Then tap Plan Route again.

The search may be too narrow. Increase the allowed miles off route, select more location categories and search again. Some areas naturally have fewer matching locations.

The Camping map is the main place to browse RV parks, public camping and selected overnight-stop categories. Move around the map or search a different town to explore places before or during your trip.

Each marker represents a type of camping or overnight location. Open Categories & Map Legends to see the available categories and their marker symbols, and to choose which types you want displayed.

Tap a marker on the map. Wehamba will open the information available for that location. When Info, Photos & Reviews is available, tap it to view the Google Maps listing for additional details, photos and reviews.

Tap My Location. Your phone must have location services turned on and Wehamba must have permission to use your location.

Yes. If you have a saved trip, turn on Show my Trip Planner route on this map. The Camping map displays the saved road-following route and its A, numbered stop and B markers so you can compare your trip with camping locations. Trip Planner remains the place to edit the trip.

Wehamba loads locations for the part of the map you are viewing. Some areas also have more participating or known locations than others. Move or zoom the map, or search another town, to explore a different area.

No. Availability, rules, hours, fees and overnight policies can change. Always review the location information and verify important details with the campground, business or property before relying on it for an overnight stay.

Attractions is a separate map for sightseeing and places you may want to visit while traveling. Keeping Attractions separate from the Camping map makes both maps easier to browse.

Tap Attractions in the top menu. Allow location access if you want the map centered near you, or use the search box to move the map to another town, city or area.

Tap the Attraction marker to open its available information. Use the Google information link when available if you want additional details, photos or reviews.

Yes. Open Trip Planner, create your route, select Attractions as a category and tap Find Locations. Review the results and use Add to Trip for the Attractions you want to visit.

Flattest Route helps you compare route choices with elevation and grade in mind. This can be useful when towing an RV or driving a heavier vehicle and you want to understand the terrain before choosing a route.

Enter your Start and Destination and select the correct location suggestions. Plan the route, then review the route choices and elevation information shown by the tool.

The route choices emphasize different goals. Flattest looks for a route with terrain in mind, Faster emphasizes travel time, and Shortest emphasizes distance. The routes may overlap or may take noticeably different roads.

The chart shows how the elevation changes along the selected route. Use it to see where climbs and descents occur and to compare the terrain of different route choices.

Yes. After you choose the route you want, tap Transfer this route to Trip Planner. Wehamba sends that route to Trip Planner so you can find campgrounds, overnight stops and other locations along it.

Yes. Use Show my Trip Planner route on this map to display the saved trip for comparison. The saved route is a reference view; use Trip Planner to edit its stops or itinerary.

No. It is a planning aid. Road restrictions, construction, grades and conditions can change. Check current road information, posted signs and any restrictions that apply to your RV before traveling.

Low Bridges helps RV travelers check a planned route for known low-clearance locations. It is designed to give you another warning before traveling with a tall RV, fifth wheel or motorhome.

Enter your Start and Destination, set your RV height, then run the route check. A marks the Start and B marks the Destination. Review the bridge warnings for the selected route before traveling.

When Google provides more than one route, the blue Alternative Route button shows Route 1 of 2, Route 1 of 3, and so on. Tap it to cycle through the available routes. Low Bridges reruns the clearance check for each selected alternative, so the warning count and bridge markers can change from route to route.

If you have a saved Trip Planner trip, turn on My Trip to display that saved road-following route and its trip markers on the Low Bridges map. Low Bridges checks the saved route for relevant low-clearance warnings, while Trip Planner remains the place to edit the trip.

The planner uses different marker and warning levels to draw attention to known clearance information. Tap a marker to review the available clearance details before deciding whether the route is appropriate for your vehicle.

Your RV height helps you compare your vehicle with known bridge clearances. Use the actual maximum height of your RV, including roof-mounted equipment such as air conditioners, antennas or other accessories.

No. Clearance data, resurfacing, construction and road conditions can change. Always obey posted clearance signs and official restrictions. If a posted sign conflicts with the app, follow the posted sign and choose another route.

Weather Center combines live radar, current conditions, a 14-day destination forecast, route-weather checks and your saved Trip Planner route on one map. Use it to look at weather where you are, ahead of you, or along a planned drive.

If you have a saved trip in Trip Planner, Weather Center shows a My Trip switch below Travel Mode. Turn it on to display the same saved road-following route and trip stops on the Weather map. The orange line is your saved trip; A is your Start, numbered markers are your saved stops, and B is your Destination. Turn the switch off when you want a cleaner radar view.

The switch appears only when a saved Trip Planner trip is available on this device. Open Trip Planner, create or restore your route, tap Save Trip, then return to Weather Center. If needed, reopen Weather Center so it can reload the saved trip.

No. Weather Center is a read-only view of the saved trip. Trip Planner remains the place to add, remove, replace, reorder, save or clear stops. Changes made and saved in Trip Planner are reflected when you return to Weather Center.

Yes. Tap A, any numbered trip stop, or B to see the saved trip location information. The markers are for reviewing the trip only; editing still happens in Trip Planner.

No. My Trip overlays your saved route on the live radar so you can visually compare the trip with current weather. For the Travel Rating, Trip Summary, RV Safe Departure Advisor, Interactive Route Timeline and Weather Along Route analysis, enter a Start and Destination under Route Weather and tap Find Route.

Use Destination Weather Forecast, enter a city, campground or ZIP code, and tap Forecast. Weather Center moves to that location and loads its current conditions and 14-day forecast.

Under Route Weather, enter your Start and Destination, then tap Find Route. A marks the Start and B marks the Destination. Weather Center draws the route, samples weather and radar along it, and displays the Travel Rating and route-weather information below the map.

When more than one route is available, the blue Alternative Route button shows Route 1 of 2, Route 1 of 3, and so on. Tap it to cycle through the available Google route alternatives. The Weather Center redraws the selected route so you can compare it with radar and weather conditions.

Current returns attention to your current GPS conditions, Forecast helps you check a destination, Route helps you plan a weather route, and Campground is a quick way to check weather for a campground or nearby city. These modes do not change your saved Trip Planner trip.

Use the back and forward buttons to step through radar frames, Play to animate them, Radar to turn the radar layer on or off, the percentage button to change radar opacity, and the refresh button to load the latest radar. Your orange My Trip route stays above the radar when it is turned on.

Tap the GPS button on the map or use the location control and allow location access when your phone asks. When GPS is active, Weather Center can show current weather and use Current Location as the Start of a route.

After you tap Find Route, Weather Center checks sampled points along that route for rain, radar activity, wind, gusts and storm indicators. It summarizes them as a travel rating and shows the worst sampled area, estimated delay, RV recommendation and trip summary. It is a planning aid, not a guarantee of road or weather safety.

The Interactive Route Timeline gives a quick Start, 25%, 50%, 75% and End view of sampled route conditions. Weather Along Route identifies representative areas along the route and shows whether each sampled area looks OK or is seeing rain, wind or storm-related conditions.

Future Travel Planner gives a simple Now, Later and Tomorrow comparison based on the route-weather risk that was just calculated. Treat it as a quick planning cue and refresh the Weather Center before departure because conditions and forecasts can change.

Make sure Location Services are turned on for your phone and that Wehamba has permission to use your location. If permission was denied earlier, enable it in your phone settings and reopen Weather Center.

No. Weather Center is a planning aid. Weather can change quickly, especially along a long RV route. Check current official alerts and local road information when severe weather or hazardous conditions are possible.

Nearby Services helps you look for useful businesses and emergency or travel-related services when you are on the road. Examples can include RV repair, mobile tire help, towing, fuel, medical care, veterinarians, pharmacies and restaurants.

Open Services from the bottom menu, choose the type of service you need and use Live Location. Allow location access if your phone asks. Select your search radius if that option is available, then run the search.

Yes. Choose the service you need, then search for a town or city instead of using Live Location. This is useful when you want to find help farther down the road before you get there.

Turn on Open now only when you want results limited to businesses reported as currently open. Business hours can change, so call the business if timing is important.

Open the service result card. When available, you can use the displayed phone information or open the Google listing for more details and directions.

Business listings, hours, phone numbers and availability can change. Nearby Services uses third-party place information, so verify important details directly with the business before driving there.

First make sure Location Services are turned on for your phone. Then make sure Wehamba has permission to use your location. Return to the map and tap My Location or the feature's GPS button again.

Give the map a moment to finish loading, then tap My Location again. If it still does not move, check your phone's location permission and GPS setting, close and reopen the page, and try again.

Close and reopen that page first. If it still looks blank, return to another Wehamba page and open it again. Also make sure your phone has an internet connection because maps and place information require online data.

Refresh or reopen the page so Wehamba can load the latest web content. If you have had the app open for a long time, fully closing and reopening the app can also refresh the current content.

Travel and business information can change. Verify anything important before relying on it, then use Contact to tell us what appears incorrect so we can investigate the listing or data.

Open Contact from the bottom menu to reach Wehamba directly. You can also join the Wehamba Facebook community from this Help page to ask a question, share feedback or suggest an improvement.
