About this app

Driving Route 66 is a journey of small moments... a neon sign, a faded motel, a diner that's been there since 1947. Route 66 Logbook helps you find those moments, log them as you go, and keep a record of your trip that will mean something years later.

Plan your trip
Browse over a thousand stops across all eight Route 66 states — diners, motels, neon, ruins, monuments, oddities. Filter by category, condition, or what's nearby. Favourite the gems you want to visit. Build a route that's actually yours.

Track where you've been
Log stops as you drive, or let background tracking do it for you — even with the app closed. Your odometer ticks up. Your map fills in. Your road trip takes shape in real time.

Collect memories
Add notes to the stops that meant something. Mark sightings as you pass them. Unlock badges as your miles add up. Build a record of the Mother Road that's entirely yours — a kind of digital scrapbook you'll come back to.

Discover hidden gems
Browse the stops other travellers loved most, not sponsored, not paid placements, just what real road-trippers favourited and returned to. Find the places that don't make the big guidebooks but should.

Help the community
Suggest stops we've missed. Confirm what you've seen. Flag what's changed: a motel that's closed, a diner that's reopened, a sign that's gone. Every like you leave shapes what the next traveler sees. This is a shared logbook, kept by the people driving it.

Why I built this
Hey, I'm Carole, a brand and web designer passionate about Americana and the Mother Road. I first drove part of Route 66 through Illinois in 2017, and came back in 2026 for the full route during the centennial. Between those two trips, I used printed guides, downloaded several apps, and still kept finding places that had closed, changed hands or disappeared — and others that had been quietly restored and brought back to life. The road is alive in a way that's hard to capture in any single book or app.
Route 66 belongs to passionate people — travellers, business owners, historians, photographers, restorers — who keep showing up for it. I wanted to build something that reflects that. No sponsored pins, no paid placement, no motel chain buying its way onto your route.
That is why the app has an in-app purchase option. There is no advertiser paying for your attention, so you are not the product being sold.

This is just the beginning. New features are in the works. Whatever you'd find useful for planning, travelling, remembering, or contributing, I want to hear about it. The aim is to build something useful for the community, not just something designed from behind a desk.

The map is free to browse. Unlock the full Logbook with tracking, achievements, profile, and the complete library of stops with a one-time purchase.

Get your kicks!
The Route, ranked by travelers, not advertisers. Built by one who drove it.
