Your Next Outdoor Adventure? Take Mobile Apps With You!

Many of us can remember how exciting camping was in the early 2010’s, with solar panels and chargers becoming widely accessible and 4G transforming our cell phones into efficient devices that we could actually use on our outdoor adventures.

Over 10 years have gone by since then and RVing has only gotten more exciting with brand new products and features that have completely revolutionized the way we travel. Fully optimized smartphones and well-designed mobile apps have completely changed the game, providing RVers and outdoor adventurers with a wealth of information at their disposal in real time.

As the industry continues to move forward, a whole new range of apps and devices have been added to the latest RVs, with some of the new products available for retrofitting to older RVs and other adventure vehicles.

With cutting edge technology, state-of-the-art RV systems and limitless potential on the horizon, the next 10 years of RV adventuring are set to be some of the most exciting yet!

How Apps Have Completely Changed RVing

Thanks to the work of dedicated app developers, vacationers no longer have to spend hours of planning to account for how much propane is left in their tank, tire pressure, and how much remaining power is left stored in their battery.

The information has given a great degree of empowerment to RVers allowing diverse groups of people to travel more often, longer, further, and smarter. For example, travelers with disabilities or older RVers who want to check their tire pressure, or the temperature of their refrigerator no longer need to leave their bed but find all this information just at a push of a button.

Understandably, this has removed a lot of the guesswork from the equation and provided a level of convenience never seen before. Adventurers can now use this information to make better decisions on their journeys; helping them stay ahead of RV resource management more efficiently.

Bluetooth Powered Mobile Apps & Smart RV Technology

A number of existing mobile apps are reliant on a steady internet connection, which is useful in cities, but not for off-the-grid travel/dry camping. To solve this problem RV manufacturers and app developers have invested heavily into Bluetooth technology meaning that connection to a cell tower is no longer required to monitor the health and performance of your RV.

Manufacturers have taken this one step further with the creation of Smart RV technology creating a network of integrated systems within your RV, all of which can be controlled from a mobile device, meaning RVers can remain independent as they choose without having to compromise on important information.

ProSmart- Monitor Your Adventures

Equipped with up to 40 interchangeable sensors that provide real-time updates on12V Battery voltage levels, tire pressure, propane tank levels and temperature, BMPRO’s ProSmart system is designed to provide real time updates on an RV’s key functions. All of these functions and sensors join together in the form of a free, easy to install, user friendly mobile app, providing RV enthusiasts with the power to go further and make better decisions.

Like with early smartphones and solar panels, smart RV technology was initially out of reach for the everyday RV traveler, but as time has gone on, new systems have been developed to fit existing RVs. ProSmart has been designed to fit both new vehicles and for retrofit installation onto any RV, allowing users to access the SmartConnect range of Bluetooth sensors for monitoring their devices and appliances. 

The new ProSmart app is free and available for IOS and Android devices on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
