SmartStops Pricing Questions

Everything you need to know about SmartStops plans and pricing

Is SmartStops free to use?

SmartStops offers a free 7-day trial with all features unlocked — including route comparison and 2 cities per stop. After that, choose Weekender ($4.99 for 14 days) for quick trips with fastest-route planning, or Adventurer ($39.99/year) for the full experience with route comparison and multiple city options.

What features does SmartStops include?

SmartStops includes: automatic playground and park finder along your route, kid-friendly stop timing every 2 hours, gas station locations, family-friendly restaurants and coffee shops, and Google Maps integration for navigation. All plans include these core features. Starter and Adventurer also include route comparison (2 routes) and 2 cities per stop.

How is SmartStops different from Google Maps?

Unlike Google Maps which optimizes for speed, SmartStops optimizes for family happiness. It automatically finds playgrounds and parks along your route timed for when kids need breaks (every 2 hours), and combines stops with gas stations and restaurants. Google Maps requires manual searching at each stop.

What is the Adventurer plan best value?

The Adventurer plan ($39.99/year) is the best value because it includes all features for a full year — unlimited searches, parks, gas, restaurants, coffee, route comparison (2 routes), and 2 cities per stop. At $3.33/month, it's ideal for families who take multiple road trips per year.
