Default GPS question

I am planing a trip for next year. Because of the state I am in I will be leaving 2nd week of May 2020.

The plan is to hit all 4 corners of the United States. Tip of Washington bottom of Texas, Tip of Main bottom of Florida then home.

I currently for all of my needs either use Google maps or Mapquest when I am in the truck, car or Harley. But those apps do not have that feature.

Because I am planing a cross country trip I am looking for a GPS app which has gas stops every x miles option.

The plan is to stop every 120 miles for gas, restroom, and to stretch.

And no I do not have a Harley with Navigation I will be using a smartphone. Any suggestions?

I basically use Google Maps exclusively anymore and I don't feel the need for anything more.

I use Google maps as well. It will allow you to tap a gas pump icon and tell you where all the gas stations are and how far. Should be simple to plan that way.

Flexibility.

I suggest you plan a general direction or set of roads, then plan your next gas stop while stopped at your last gas stop.

At least no more than one day's worth of detailed plans, this allows for max flexibility.

You might try Gas Buddy app.
