Default Gps software

I have used google maps, mapquest, HD GPS app.

I like everyone prefer free but depending on price I would be willing to purchase.

I am looking for a GPS app that I can add fuel stops and the route is depending on gas stations. I prefer to stop every 120 to 150 miles for gas so I want to put that option in the GPS app.

Yes I do pay attention to how many miles I ride and stop accordingly however it would be easier to add this when planning cross country trip.

Look into "Scenic Motorcycle Nav". Download it from the App Store. I use it on my iPhone. Not sure whether it supports Android. Nevertheless, it has all the functionality you're looking for. There is a little bit of a learning curve to use all the functionality, but you'll find tutorials on Youtube that will guide you along. It's not free, but inexpensive.

It's a couple years old now, but here is a link to a review of several navigation apps suitable for motorcycles.

I've been through them all. Just get a dedicated GPS. Garmin or Tom Tom.

For cheap?
Plan your trip on Google maps using the directions feature, then send it to your phone and use Google Maps App.

Personally I like WAZE because it shows traffic and cops in near real time

Can't go wrong here. As far as plotting gas stations, just route to one when needed. No sense in overthinking it.
