It does exist for some systems. There is a Repeater Book app for
Android - don't know about Apple stuff. Anyway, it will do a blue-tooth
setup for Yaesu radios (817, 857) via a blue-tooth adapter.
Check it out.

May not be what you are after but shows the possibilities.

This question has nothing to do with Elecraft rigs (well, possibly remotely if
I assume a KX3 as mobile with the future to be provided 2-meter option).
Yesterday I drove to Portland from my QTH of Kirkland near Seattle. This is a
3 1/2 hour trip down I-5 (and, the return). In the Seattle area, I had my
2-meter mobile rig in my truck sitting on a repeater frequency but it was not
too long before I was out of range of that repeater. I wondered briefly about
changing to some nearby closer repeater but it was not that important to me but
I started thinking about an automated way to do this.
I have GPS in various guises with my Truck (iPhone, iPad, and my little Garmin
GPS at times), so what if I had a way of extracting location, looking up
location of nearest repeater in my database (if I had one), and then having a
interface to my rig to update the repeater frequency, split offset, tone, etc.
All very possible.
So, my question: Does such a thing now exist? I don't pay enough attention to
repeater-life to know what other hams may have already created?
