Everyone has been there — you’re on a long ride with children and you hear the dreaded, “Are we there yet? I need to go potty!” Or, perhaps you’ve just packed your cheap car hire to set off on a long road trip with friends when you realize you’ve had one too many sodas and need a bathroom…soon. Just a few years ago, it was a guessing game — if I stop at this gas station, what are the chances they’ll have a public restroom? Or perhaps the better question — what are the chances that it’s clean? Today, you can find clean (and free) bathrooms with a click of a button thanks to a variety of smart phone apps. Here are a few of our top picks that will help guide your way: Sit or Squat – Free Available for the iPhone and Blackberry, Sit or Squat lets you search for a public toilet by entering your address, zip code, intersection, or city. The results will guide you to a clean bathroom within minutes. If you don’t have a smart phone, no problem. Just text “sitorsquat”to 368266 to find a nearby restroom. Whizzer – $0.99 Whizzer Lite – Free Whizzer lets you search by current location to find clean restrooms, those that are open late at night, and those with showers. You can also search to include baby changing stations, feminine hygiene products, and can even specify just how clean you want the restroom to be. Upgrade to the regular version of Whizzer for $0.99 and enjoy the app without ads. Diaroogle
