Leave a Review onX Hunt
OnX is piece of mind!
I use the app for two states. It give me peace of mind, knowing that I’m in a LEGAL spot to be hunting and without the worry of catching a trespassing case or hunting somewhere where I’m not supposed to be. OnX hunt greatly improves my abilities to scout certain areas to hunt at and all at the tip of my fingertips. Thank you onX Hunt, it would be a lot harder without you!
***Update: I just upgraded to the “Elite” membership. Saying that im impressed is an understatement! The benefits of the app is incredible! I love being able to now work all 50 states! This is an invaluable tool and I can’t imagine being without it for all of my hunting and pre-hunting needs! I especially like the newest feature of see what the land looks like as of ever two weeks! That’s incredible, showing me current field conditions for hunting. Finally, I have to tip my hat to OnX hunt’s customer service! Their reps are awesome and super helpful. I’ve called them twice and resolved any questions I had. Thank you OnX, I’ll never leave home without your service!!!!!!!Show lessCollateral damage5439

I have used this app over the last 3 years for hunting and many other outdoor activities and is by far the best mapping app I’ve used. It’s user friendly and accurate. The 3D maps make it so much better when planning routes and timing. I’ve not seen anything that comes close to comparing.
Recently on a hunt with my cousin he was very satisfied with his mapping app until I showed him what OnX could do. He referred to my maps the rest of the hunt and was convinced to get it for himself.
Great customer service as well. When I upgraded from premium services to elite and the upgrade went through the Apple Store and the annual premium service auto charge went through OnX at about the same time and I was double charged, it was a simple email to OnX to get it fixed. Within the hour I had an email reply and refund already headed to my account.
I travel several states for hunting, camping, hiking etc and this is the best app and worth the annual fee many time over.Show less#1DT

Wow! We really appreciate you taking the time to leave such a detailed review. We're stoked that you've been enjoying onX and we hope it continues to serve you well out there for seasons to come!Love it, but…
I downloaded the free version at first, and really enjoyed using it. In fact, the waypoints and scouting data I was able to record helped me bag my first turkey in 7 years. I wanted to get a subscription but had been laid off at the time. I received a free 3-month trial for the full access version with the purchase of a tree stand, and was very impressed with it, to the point I decided to pay for a subscription once it expired. It was expiring before Christmas and I asked my wife to buy a subscription as a gift. The trial period has expired and I am now unable to edit the maps, add waypoints, or even interact with my established waypoints like I was before I had the subscription. I find this supremely disappointing and it has made me second guess whether I will choose to buy a subscription. I put in way too much time and effort scouting to lose all of my data, and I will go back to using an inferior but free app if I feel my scouting data is safer there. If the app makers could let me know what I’m missing or if this wasn’t supposed to happen I would appreciate it. I want to love this product and will adjust my rating and purchase a subscription if this issue is addressed.Show lessMr. KitchenSink
On x Hunt
Best hunting app EVER. You can do so much with it. Mark location for your last hunt, or mark and show which direction a trail camera is facing and where it is. Track how long it will take you to get to where you need to be. It shows property lines and property owners which is great if you need to contact them for permission to be on there land. Add waypoints, build routes, wind calendar. These are just a few of the awesome features that onX offers. Another awesome part is there is offline maps too so you don’t have to have Survice to use app. The simple membership is only $30 a year. But they also have a more advanced subscription too that is $15 a month. The $30 a year one limits you to only one state to use, which is fine for me but the $15 a month membership lets you have access to multiple states. They also have other onX apps too. They have one for atv and snowmobile trails which I don’t have now but might look into getting that one too. I definitely think this is a good hunting app and I highly recommend this app. Hope you like it. Good luck out thereShow lessKoolguy 243

Wow! Thank you so much for such an in-depth review, we couldn't have said it better ourselves. We're so pleased that you've been enjoying onX so far, and we hope it continues to serve you well on adventures to come. Thanks again!Useful!
I find OnX a
Very useful app to explore areas and find access points in the outdoors to Public Places. Or to see if you need to ask landowners for permission. People stay holed up in their houses with their electronics. Thinking the world is a polluted wasteland. Now that I know it’s not as bad as I thought, I’d love to explore the history and beauty of our state—but have learned I need to thank environmentalists, hunters, fishers—and now corporations who care—for reversing the course of us using the land as a dumping ground. I was surprised and reassured to find there it was a State initiative to get people out on the River (Susquehanna and Conestoga) In 2012, initiating a campaign to increase public usage of our natural treasures. Their initial findings were that the public avoided our streams rivers as polluted sewers.

App is starting to freeze up
Been using this app for hunting for the past few years its been great i pay for the elite membership and for the most part its gotten me to where i need to be i have been out in the backcountry and the app sometimes cant locate where you are at and just wont work even with offline maps this past elk season a buddy of mine who also has the elite membership couldnt even use his offline maps when we were out in the backcountry somehow mine was working and his wasnt. More recently iv noticed the app completely freezing I couldn’t zoom out or in it wouldnt be able to locate you i would have to basically restart the whole app and it would still have issues personally i dont really know if this app is worth the money anymore worked amazing when the app would work and i had zero issues I suggest checking out basemaps unless onx can figure these issues out i will probably be unsubscribing due to constant issuesShow lessjoe20123
Works
UPDATE/EDIT: The app was crashing and freezing. The developer suggested I uninstall it and reinstall. That fixed it, mostly, for a while. I use this app daily, and just had to do it again, but at least there’s a fix to it. The only thing I hate about uninstalling and reinstalling is that I have to re-download the offline maps, which I need. And to be fair, I’m betting that I push it (and the phone) to its max. I manage 4 large ranches (almost 100k acres total), with almost nonexistent cell service. I have put in a LOT of info, in the app. Plus the highest resolution maps available are downloaded for all 100k acres, and the surrounding areas. The developers are responsive as well, as they’ve finally fixed the screen timeout issue, which is GREATLY appreciated.
The app won’t even open in my phone now. It started off having issues if I switched apps, like to a ballistic calculator and then back to onX. I updated it, and now it won’t even get passed the red loading screen before it crashes. Shutdown and restarted the app, my phone, closed everything else, both on/off wifi. Nothing. It’s literally worthless right now. I used it daily, on the ranch. I’ll go try the desktop site now, but it’s pointless if it won’t work on my phone.Show lessJimmy Ray jones

We deeply regret this unusual loss of reliability! Our best advice is to make a note of your login information and then uninstall and reinstall the app. If these issues continue, please contact us at help@onxmaps.com for assistance from a team of experts who are committed to making this right.Basic service property boundaries are inaccurate.
Be aware the properly boundary lines with “Basic Service” are almost always inaccurate by 20 feet up to 55 yards (maybe farther?). A great deal of reasoning and common sense will be required on a users part to stay legally where you believe you are, much less tag an animal there. When I started my service, the property lines were nearly always within 10-25 feet of accurate, sometimes within five feet of survey pins. As upgraded service was suggested, eventually highly advertised while using the app, the accuracy declined.
I began noticing errors around National Parks. At times showing private property within park boundaries. Upon contacting the Missoula office to report these errors, I was told it was because, “We only use the records each county provides, if that information is incorrect we cannot do anything about it.”
Really? What’s the point of reporting an error? I’ve declined the upgrade, records are records - correct? WAIT! So why would record quality deteriorate over time? I’ll let you come to your own conclusions…Show lessbadissue
Keep Coming Back to OnX
I am exclusively a public land hunter and have been incredibly impressed with the features of OnX. I have tried 3 other apps, one of which I use in conjunction with OnX to digitally scout. I have found the layers on OnX superior to all others. One suggestion I would make on the app is a hover option over crop fields to textually identify the crop type. On the web app I don’t have to click on the field and read through the whole card just to tell what is planted there. I find myself going to web app more then I would like just to have that feature. I realize there are colors to differentiate crop types on the phone app but I don’t want to have to memorize the colors to differentiate. Especially with crops that have similar shading (eg. soybeans vs winter wheat). It would be nice to just hover the cross hairs in the phone app over the crop and have a small text appear on the screen to indicate the crop type. Same goes for tree types as well. Overall this is a great app!! Keep up the good work!Show lessWayne Hilary
IF YOUDON’T USE ONX SOMETHINGS WRONG
I have been using On xfor the last four years for all kinds of hunting with it be deer, turkey, coyotes waterfall and it has helped me a lot or knowing my property lines and line ownership information for permission to hunt lands and to know where border lines are or utilize on exit every day when I’m in the woods even when I’m at work scouting for a place to hunt I highly recommend you use ONX for your every day hunting fishing Even Camping needs. It is help me to stay off other peoples property and it’s also help me get me an owner information for hunting properties and ask permission and be able to scout from the air and see where a really good spot could be to hunt using the pin locations has helped me so much and being able to mark trails, robs sightings of animals and even being able to place where my truck is parked or where I should park and where my tree stands blinds or spots to set up should be. It is the best app I’ve ever used to be able to find work locations to hunt and be able to get my spots figured out from the air. Don’t waste your time or any other app get ONX.Show lessmartin outdoor adventures
