THE Solution
The RV travel market is fragmented, with outdated and incomplete solutions forcing users to juggle multiple apps and websites. RVista addresses this gap as a true one-stop platform, combining mobile apps for iOS and Android with a web app and admin panel to:
Eliminate app-hopping
Replace clunky tools
Cover the full journey

Hybrid approach
Trip planning is often time-consuming and resource-intensive, which makes it more convenient to manage from a desktop with greater visibility and control. That’s why a full-featured
web app
was developed, allowing travelers to manage their trip whenever from a browser – whether on a tablet or desktop.

Once on the road, priorities shift. Travelers need quick, responsive tools to adjust itineraries – a true companion on the journey – manage bookings, and track vehicles in real time. The
cross-platform mobile app
provides that flexibility, making it possible to update plans and stay coordinated on the go.For my own company, I wanted a team that specializes in tech startups. A team that was an up-and-comer and very hungry for innovation. And a team that would work side by side with me sharing ideas and collaborating vs just building to spec.
So, I see SolveIt as a core long-term partner for RVista.
Cross-platform approach
For an early-stage product like RVista, the priority was to accelerate time-to-market while delivering a polished, high-performance experience on both iOS and Android platforms. Flutter emerged as the ideal choice due to its single codebase.
Its reactive UI architecture and stellar performance provide near-native responsiveness – essential for dynamic map rendering, frequent user interactions, and smooth transitions. Flutter reduced platform-specific maintenance on let to focus on:
- Rapid iteration
- Feature velocity
- Consistent UX across devices
Your cross-platform success story could be next!
Key Features
Cross-platform accessibility
Seamless synchronization across web, iOS, and Android devices, allowing users to plan on one device and continue on another.
The platform supports offline access on mobile, so travelers can manage their itineraries even in remote areas with limited connectivity.

UI/UX Design


We didn’t just design the product interface – we built a full brand identity from the ground up. Logo, typography, messaging: everything was crafted to capture the spirit of RV travel, blending the feel of open roads, mountains, and mobility.

We created an intuitive UI across web and mobile, enabling travelers to seamlessly plan routes, manage trips, and access info in real time. We focused on clear navigation, consistent visual language, and responsive layouts to support both desktop and on-the-go use.

Another task was to design easily identifiable iconography that allows users to quickly spot the best stays and nearby attractions – luxury resorts, national parks, gas stations, or pet-friendly stops – making interaction effortless and enhancing the overall user experience.

Monetization
All RVista features are available under a single plan with no hidden tiers. The model offers a 14-day free trial, followed by monthly or annual billing, with subscriptions tied to the users account for seamless access across iOS, Android, and web.


The platform handles auto-renewal, payment authorization, and error recovery, while preserving user data (favorites, trips, preferences) for up to 90 days after expiration, ensuring smooth reactivation without loss of progress.
To support this, we integrated Adapty – a subscription management platform that сentralizes purchase data in one place, giving a full picture of user behavior reducing development and maintenance costs of a custom admin solution.
