  • Best hunting app

    I found this app 2 years ago when tracking a deer during now season. I was able to contact landowners before walking onto properties and even acquire help of a neighbor and now friend. We also manage blind locations and distances so we all can have a great hunt. Also being able to access wind direction and plan an alternate hunt before going out is crucial! Whether recording walking path to locate a deer and even your way home! This app is a constant guide for you in the woods and your never alone with HuntWise or not ahead of the hunt! Must get this app

  • Land owners reveiw

    As a land owner, all this proliferation of data to the masses has been a huge problem with people seeing what we have had work hard to purchase and maintain and then hound the land owners for hunting privileges. We (landowners) have worked years, ate beans and rice, drove old cars, don't go out to eat, work 60-70 hours a week to have a quiet peaceful place to hunt and live in peace. Leave us alone and stay off the land. It is for friends and family. NOT strangers with an App. If a stranger calls or asks to hunt it will always be NO. Do you go to my church? Are you a blood relative? No no no no.

    Also. The these maps are based on county tax maps (GIS data, im in real estate) there are notoriously inaccurate. If you are trusting these maps without knowing the surveyor boundaries you could end up prosecuted for trespassing, loose your guns, loose years of hunting rights and possibly end up in jail. Not to mention the fines and a criminal record. Talk to people you know personally, show your of good character, go help work the land and repair habitat and then maybe you will get hunting rights.

  • Great app HORRIBLE customer service

    Downloaded app and was bragging to all hunting buddies to get them to give it a try. While I had tried the free trial and loved it I couldn’t afford it right then so I canceled before being charged. Still sorting out how I got signed up again to be charged, but after reaching out to customer service and explaining there was an error. I waited WEEKS and still got no help! Now apple being as crappy as they are I have to let the charge go through if I want to download any apps and only then can they MAYBE issue the refund! App is good for purpose but I don’t recommend buying or putting your card info on it!

  • Not happy with now having to pay for what was originally free.

    I got this app around when it first came out and it was amazing. Everything was pretty much free at first but since then more and more things have been removed from the free version and you’re made to pay for access to things that used to be free. I don’t use the property line feature because there is a better app for that called Regrid. The only thing this app is good for in my mind is the downwind feature and the ability to place specific markers on your map. I’m a little upset that even though I got the app when everything was free I now have to pay to access the rut cast on the weekends, which to be honest, were never really accurate to begin with. I shot my buck at 8:00am opening day last year and it showed very little potential on the rut cast.

  • Pay or the highway

    Man, I used this hunting app all last season and loved it. I loved it so much, that I paid for the top package throughout my hunting season. I come back this year, and the free version is basically worthless. Can’t see anything on the weekends. Makes me not want to pay for the app. I love WHS but I think this is a step in the wrong direction. Don’t forget where we came from, don’t forget the small timers, or maybe even the high school kids that can’t afford the high price line. With 100’s of hunting prediction apps, I think this is the wrong step in direction. If the app was still somewhat even useable for Fri-Sunday I’d consider buying the subscription again. Bummed

  • Perfect place to consolidate!

    I’ve hunted in multiple states for 45+ years. I’ve had great memories of hunts in the past but, just memories. With HuntWise, it’s been incredible to consolidate the memories with locations! How? Dropping those pins, places notes about what occurred for that pin to drop (the sightings, years & types of harvest) and adding photos to help plan for the next hint as well as remember the previous. Harvests, sightings, scrapes, bedding areas, camps, all in one visible place, right at my finger tips! Visible sight of the land and terrain from the maps only makes it better. 10/10!

  • Not worth it

    As someone who is willing to try things and give them a chance. What I noticed with a lot of apps similar to this one, the in-app purchases. I get it as far as making a profit. However, in the times we live in, not many can afford said purchases or able to have subscriptions. I will be deleting the app as it really isn’t all that great. There are No algorithms that can gauge with Any real accuracy of how well you will do. I get the property lines and such. Yet shut certain features when that’s the most popular time for most hunters who may not be able to get weekends off. It’s the same with fishing. I am the one to blame. I should just trust my many yrs of huge success in fishing and hunting. To rely on tech to put food on the table, forget trophies, not a real hunter or fisherman then in my opinion.

  • Landowner and lines out of date

    I have been using this app for several years. I started using it to find property to purchase. I thought it was helping… In Jan 2022 I purchased a large parcel that was split in half. In Aug 2022 I asked app support why the lines and owners were not up to date. They said they would update by requesting county data. In Oct 2022 I asked why it was still not updated. They said it takes 3-6 months. In Jan 2023 I ask again, still not updated. They say “we appreciate your patience” but continue to promote the app for finding landowner info for hunting. People will be wasting their time with that feature. You’d think the state of Michigan would be up to date seeing the app owner is based in Grand Rapids. Unfortunately the property lines and land owner info is at least 18 months out of date. The app is 4.5/5 but map detail is 2/5.

  • Hunting

    I honestly think it a is good app to have but if the you want to use it for when it is a good time to hunt or the weather it bc i have seen more on when the percentage is down then it was high. But overall it is good app to have when you dont know where the property line are. When you are hunting a new property or different state. And i have my friends that use it for when they are riding atv just for the property lines.

  • Great useful hunting app

    I’ve been using this Hunting app for 2 years now and it’s no nonsense and navigation is great. I tried 2 other hunting apps lately because of the hype they were getting and they were not user friendly, pushed advertising and product tabs instead of concentrating on it being a useful easy to navigate tool.
    HuntWise nailed it in my opinion and was more reasonable per annual cost.
