Changes

I have had this app for 8 years. I wasn’t happy when it changed owners and lost my stand locations but once I talked to them I understand this app is not stored on the cloud. That’s why the price is cheaper that the others which is important to me personally. I do love the new features they added. Especially the scoring app!! I also use the range finder to set up targets at long distances and love that!

I just got a new phone and everything moved over from old phone perfectly.

Response from developer

Thank you!! We will be adding many more features in the future!

Should be zero stars!

Had this app for at least 5 years. Close to 150 waypoints. The latest version of the app is pure garbage! Used to be my go to. Had to move on to a different app. I will not list what I switch to, that way the s.o.b. that ruined this app will not get the satisfaction of how they need to change. Go back to the original version and I’ll be back in a heartbeat! Sad that people still try to reinvent the wheel.

Adding Notes

I really like the app. Some changes are hard to get use to but no problems learning. My only problem at this time is i can not figure out how to add notes to my locations. I really like being able to add notes is this feature available on the new version?

Why????

I was super happy with last years version of Antler Insanity. But why leave a good app alone, right? I hate the latest version and will be looking for another app that simply does it better. I was always able to easily navigate to my stand in the dark using the “walk to” feature but no more. You made a once easy to use app complicated and not user friendly. Don’t waste you money on this app.

Poor expierence

This app has been at the centerpoint of a hunting group I’m a part of for the last several years. Unexpectedly last year there was a lot of changes with no communication. My hunting team stuck it out with the app however with the recent change it to a subscription model and no free features it’s sad but the hunting team will not be using this app anymore. Even though it’s cheaper there’s just no trust in the developers leadership

You changed everything that was good on this app.

When this App. First came out it was great, you could mark your stand accurately, the wind direction portrayed on each stand was perfect, and then you charged for the app. Like $2.99, so I paid, and then the app. just declined, and now charging a subscription on an existing customer is sad. I only paid for the subscription now just to mark my stands on another app. I like some of the additions of the moons phases, aging, and calls However, the important important pieces changed.

A must for every hunter !

The new updated version works flawlessly! I’d given anything for this app when I was hunting in the Midwest due to constantly changing conditions. Amazing hunting tool ! Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Disappointing upgrade

On the whole I truly like AntlerInsanity. I have saved hunting and fishing spots in 5 states. With the recent update I apparently have lost all that information for those spots. I am very disappointed about this. The new update I am sure will be fine, but I can’t recreate all that I lost. I have sent an email to AntlerInsanity requesting their help to recover the lost information. Prior to the update I would have given a 5 star rating. Time will tell what I think about the updated version.

Response from developer

Our developers are telling us that all stand locations have been restored to the new app, except for one user who didn't have enough space on their device. If the app was deleted and reinstalled, then the data will not be available as with any app that gets deleted. If you are still experiencing issues with stands, please let us know wo that we can dig into this deeper. All of the features that were previously available on the app will always be available for free, the only thing that will be a charge are all of the features we will be adding before next season, and there will be a TON of them. We will be adding the features that were on the old app that didn’t transfer to the new version soon. As soon as they are all available, we will send a push notification through the app and let everyone know. We are still working on getting the wind fixed, as the direction indicator has been an issue even in the previous app. We are also readjusting so that you can pull up the wind at the stand locations. We are also developing a walkthrough to show where all of the features are, to help with some of the features people are having trouble finding. Thank you for your patience and I hope you enjoy the new updates coming.

Choose another!

Before the November debacle this was a decent app. After losing my stands (during hunting season....good timing) and the change to the even worse than before interface, I stuck with it simply because it was functional. Eventually got the stands back.
Then I fire up the app a few weeks ago to show a buddy a spot, and lo and behold now I have to pay (after the free month🙄) to use a mediocre app.
NOPE. Peace out. I’m sure there’s better for free. And if not for free I’ll certainly pay for something better than this.

Old data was deleted!

I was promised all the old stand info would be reinstalled. It has not. I can’t check the weather at any of my stands. The only weather I can check is at my current location. Also, when I try to pull up my stands, the app locks up and I have to stop and relaunch the app. This is terrible because the app was working just fine before they screwed it up. And they screwed it up right before hunting season! If I could give this a rating of less than one star then I would because it is not even worthy of one star. Don’t waste your money.

What happened????

Please restore critical features...I have more than 150 stand sites in 4 states gone!!! I have them in an exported file that I cannot even upload.

I tried to use the new app and quickly added 20 stand sites on a local 155 acre property but key features; stand list, choose stand, plot all stands, mark location, name, categorize, walk to, get wind, and send location all gone....WHAT?????

Please let us know another update is coming quickly...who the heck does something like this at this time of the year? Why would any developer think that recorded sounds, aging and scoring guidelines would be more valuable to hunters than what frankly was the absolute best GPS stand location service available.

Please tell us you will be bringing those features back, as well as, a system to upload our previous stand locations.

Can someone help? I am hearing others have had all of their files restored, I have not? Am I missing something? I have a folder that’s indicates “previous data” but the file is empty?

I don’t k one of the app was deleted and restored, is there a way to check? Storage should be an issue

Wind

Thank you for restoring our saved locations!
With the last version you could check wind of your saved stands from camp or home, New version it only gives wind where you are at the time you check it, The whole point of checking the wind is so you will know what your wind is doing at your saved location. Can we get it back to where it was pick a location that you have saved check wind and it shows you with an arrow what the wind is doing at that location instead of where you are at that time.

Ruined This App

Updated Review - Well here we are over a month after that hollow reply about what the developers are doing to restore our waypoints. What a crock. This app remains useless. I guess I’m the one user that his waypoints have not been restored - yea right.

This app was working fine until this supposed “upgrade”. I lost over 100 waypoints. I have them backed up but there is not a functioning method to restore them. Many of the intuitive menus and functions are now lost. 4* to no stars in a single release. I think I’m more amazed in the complete failure of this upgrade more than the utter disappointment in now having to move on to another hunting app

Terrible since update

Bring back the “walk to” feature. It was the best thing about the app, now it’s gone. Also since I got all of my marked locations back, they’re no longer grouped according to the area they marked in. Now I have to scroll through hundreds of locations to find what I’m looking for. They’re not even alphabetized, just random. This app has really gone downhill since the update. It was great...now it’s terrible. Might just go download HuntStand or something. Getting tired of waiting for these problems to get fixed. I’ve never seen an app become useless after an update. Fix it please.

There is no walk to feature with your new app

I got all my prior locations back but your new app doesn’t have the option to walk to the location like the old app did. The blue indicator ball use to have an arrow showing you the direction you need to walk when you hit the walk too feature. The current app does not have that or that option! Is this going to be corrected because if not the current app is useless!

From a great App to a junk APP

Noticed on some of your responses to people you said the old updates were not done right well you just destroyed this app for all the old users.
Update stand locations have been restored. Now just make this app easier to navigate like the old one things be great. Also be nice to be able to jus text an updated stand location to another hunter. Instead of emailing the hole list. Thanks

Very disappointing

Thanks for the response but I am still unable to pull up my old stands. Any help would be appreciated

As many others have stated, the latest update wiped out years of hunting data. Loved the old app but this new version stinks. If old data can’t be restored Antler Insanity will not be on my phone. Why input this data all over again and risk it being wiped out again.

PS. Had to rate this as a 4 to get my review to upload 😡

Antler insanity developers: “if it ain’t broke, let’s break it”

The only thing right about the app is the name. Antler insanity....the insanity being let’s completely trash one of the better apps on the market for a completely new app. Thanks to the new “revamped” antler insanity I lost all my stand locations. Don’t believe the canned response that they’re hunters and that they’ll be able to restore your data. No Hunter in his right mind would wipe his gps mid season. Since I have to start over I’ve switched to BaseMap and deleted this app.

New app

Is there a way to get to the walk to section 3 much. Well ever since I see you changed the app but the old one used to have a walk to icon that you could press and it would take you straight to your stand. Is that still available?

Lost everything

Lost everything I had saved when this app updated itself would rate this new app less then on star if it was offered, unreal that they would do that DO NOT USE THIS APP there has to be better ones out there.

Update. I have all my stuff back that I lost after the last update, thanks you guys so much, I changed my rating to 5 stars if it stays this way I would recommend this app again, thanks again
