Leave a Review GOHUNT / Hunt Research & Maps
Would like better imagery…
I love the tools on this app, they are extremely useful and very good ideas. However, I would love it if there were updated maps to use on the app. The satellite imagery is extremely blurry, at least in the areas I look at. I would love clearer imagery if possible. I don’t know the legality behind what you’re able to use, but in my opinion it would increase the usefulness of the app. I use this app for a lot, except digitally scouting. I still use Google Earth for that, but would love to just use one app! Really a great idea and a great product. A little glitchy sometimes, especially on Androids, but overall a really great app!Show lessC8seyMac
It’s really good and my favorite but
The function of the app is great just a couple things that could be addressed is when using the distance measuring tool to see how long a hike you’ll have there is no undo button especially when using a touch screen it’s very easy to accidentally make a mark way off and then have to restart at the beginning to fix the mistake also I purchased an iPad mostly for escouting and it won’t let me use the whole screen just a strip down the middle which is about a third of the available screen it’s not a big issue still bigger view then my iPhone but was hoping to be able to utilize the whole screen over all it’s really good and I still really enjoy it especially the the three D is really awesome and being able filter the different elevations is greatShow lessJimjohnh

Hey Jim, thank you for the 5 star review! We appreciate the great feedback. Our tech team will look into a better solution for the measuring tool. In regards to your iPad, for best results you will want to log on to GOHUNT.com and access maps that way. The mobile app is more designed for your mobile device. Thank you again, if you need anything please let us know.Love the company, mapping software is not there yet
First I would like to say that I love GoHunt a a company. I love the insider, articles, store and podcast. It truly has made me a more effective hunter. That is why I am disappointed in the mapping software. It is great until the time I have to take it offline. I download my maps and head to the field, once out of cell service is when the trouble starts. Either my app won’t open, takes a long time to load, does not load maps at all and can’t keep track of where I am if I lock my phone. Yes, I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling and worked on location settings. I work in the tech field and am pretty savvy with these things. Unfortunately, I just cannot get offline maps to function as they should. I use another navigation app that has never let me down and must stick with it until these problems are solved. Note, I will continue to buy the full bundle because I like gohunt so much and hope in the future the mapping software is better.Show lessDflager888

Thank you for the constructive feedback. We are doing everything we can to provide a quality product. We would love to connect and see what we can do to help. Can you please email us directly at reachus@gohunt.com? Thank you and best of luck this season.GOHUNT real does a phenomenal job!
Really love this app, I’ve used on many hunts and its always been top notch! Really glad the released the new gh topo layer, I think that really makes it better then onx as far as maps go. One thing I would like to see, would be an iPad version of this app. I do most of my e-scouting on my iPad, so it would be nice to be able to use the app that’s designed for iPad, and not just the website. Overall you can’t beat GOHUNT, the whole package with the insider membership is amazing. Totally worth it to anyone who does any kind of hunting out west.Show lessDavid, S

Hey David, thank you so much for the review and kind words. Best of luck this season!For the price it could be better
For the price of insider, the maps and other tools could be better. Theres a lot of copy and paste going on with the filtering 2.0 information. A lot of units in utah say the exact same things worded slightly different. As far as the maps go, the satellite imagery is very grainy and shows no detail when zoomed in, and downloading/using offline maps is pretty buggy. The download will often get stuck halfway through and never complete. Some map features are only available on desktop and not the mobile version which is inconvenient. Overall I think its a really great concept that could be amazing with some more fine tuningShow lessKswart18

Hey there, we appreciate the feedback. Working on more intuitive info for our Filtering 2.0 has been on an ongoing project. We just finished a big push through Wyoming and will be working on other states soon. Thank you!Superior mapping
I’ve used all the hunt apps and GoHunt is simply superior to all others. While it is better then the competitors for all states they really shine and crush the other apps in the west. Not to say having another mapping app isn’t a good idea for comparison but GoHunt is the source of truth for my eScouting and offline maps. Add in all the other features like hunt plans, historical imagery, the insane 3D, reliability of offline maps and the speed stuff loads (which is lightyears faster than basemaps and OnX at this time (2023) it’s just a no brainer and I didn’t even get to insider/filtering 2.0. Just do itShow lessRyan.Tanner

Thank you for the kind words, best of luck this season!BIG IMPROVEMENTS!!!
I used Gohunts app last year in 2022 and had a bunch of issues, I thought about canceling but glad that I didn’t. I’ve been using it for scouting this year in 2023 and WOW have they improved it drastically. The features are incredible and the app is always on point in the field. I’m at the point where I’m getting ready to cancel my OnX now - nice work Gohunt team!Show lessmdawg59

Thank you for the kind words, we are glad you stuck around too! Best of luck this seasonE-scouting tool, not reliable in field
This is a great tool for the desktop and e-scouting, however I have had multiple problems with my “downloaded” maps not showing satellite image or topography lines. Everything the map is just a blur of colors. I will set a track and it won’t record my distance it shows the miles traveled as ‘nan’. Some great features and potentially a really cool tool but not a reliable in field tool when you go offline with a downloaded map. Maybe I’ve been using the tool wrong but I thought it would be easier to use.Show lessNot there yet, maybe one day

I know this is an older review, but we do have new builds that have addressed your above noted issues. I hope you've been able to update and have been experiencing a more enjoyable time using the app. Thank you!Is there a trail layer?
I really like the interactive maps that help me know terrain along with the standard layers like public use land.
I’m not a fan of the big jump in price to get the insider info so won’t use it because it’s cost prohibitive. Will have to do the research myself. I also don’t like the tone color of the satellite maps. Everything is hued to be too warm.
I would like to see a layer that shows established trails that can be zoomed in and see elevation gains like that found with the “all trails” app.
I left ONX maps because they try to nickel and dime you with all the ads ons for all the different formats of enjoying the back country. I just want one app that gives me the options and not charge an unreasonable amount.Show lessHopeless_elk_hunter

Thank you for the feedback! We recently launched a new trail mileage update the gives the mileage for various trail sections. We have additional trail info on the road map as well. Thank you!Next level topo maps
I use onx primarily because I hunt the Midwest and go hunt doesn’t have the best land coverage out here. But I always use go hunt for their topo maps if I think I found a nice spot. The detail and shading is awesome and makes understanding the land layout way easier!Tyebeers
