### 2/5 — Only audio, video broken.

*2022-09-06*

The videos only play audio. No way to contact for support.

### 1/5 — Why so much?!

*2017-12-04*

Steve has a lot of great information that is helping me learn a lot about Blacktails and how to find them. I can't wait to get up in the mountains and use the info I have learned from him. BUT........ I can't afford the subscription.... At most the subscription should be $20 a year. I'm really upset that I cannot access that info without paying way too much.

### 1/5 — Very basic

*2017-09-09*

Not what I expected, way better is "eat wild by Dylan" on YouTube, and it's free!

### 1/5 — New iPhone woes

*2016-11-25*

App worked great on my iPhone 6 but won't do anything at all with my iPhone 7 but keep charging me monthly for absolutely nothing. 
No other way to contact the makers but thru this. 
Fix your app as it does nothing on my iPhone 7 :(((

### 1/5 — Prices are out to lunch.

*2016-06-17*

This app needs work. And the prices to drop dramatically.

### 1/5 — This is absurd.

*2016-05-14*

This app is terrible. I found out this app on television I decided to give it a go seeing it on the App Store that it was free. I am a hunter and I am always looking for tips by other hunters. This app contains videos of how to hunt. Not realizing that you had to buy a subscription I enjoyed this app at first but, if you don't buy the subscription you only get to watch one video saying how to set up a trail cam....Really? The subscription is way too much 20$ a month just to watch videos that you can find better on YouTube I mean if the subscription was 5$ a month I would totally pay for this subscription but prices are way absurd just to watch a 3minute video. I am sorry to say but I rate this app 1/4 stars this app doesn't even deserve the 1 star. Please if you own this app make the subscription affordable. Thank you!

### 2/5 — Not worth $27

*2016-04-03*

The app continually crashes. You take the time to download the videos and once you watch them the app tells you there's an updated video so to spend all day downloading most videos again. There's good information but the videos are short and lots could be made into one five minute video instead of five one minute videos. Maybe worth $27 for unlimited access but at $27 per month no way.

### 1/5 — Crazy price

*2015-12-13*

Info on app is good, but price is beyond ridiculous....$230 per year... Good luck finding a lot of suikers.

### 1/5 — Posted 2 reviews they refuse to post

*2015-12-13*

Annoying that iTunes won't post reviews EVERY REVIEW SHOUKD BE POSTED
THIS APP IS WICKED EXPENSIVE ALL THIS INFONIS ON WEB SOMEWHERES FOR FREE

### 1/5 — Trouble cancelling

*2015-12-12, version 1.0.0*

Nice content but too expensive on an ongoing basis.  Ap says it can be cancelled anytime but there is no place in the settings to do this.  My monthly subscription just renewed automatically and I haven't had a response to my email inquiry on how to cancel.

### 1/5 — Not worth the subscription!

*2015-12-10, version 1.0.0*

I agree with the others who have voiced a distain of the expensive monthly subscription fee. The info provided can be found online by doing just a little research if need be. What did all these "experts" have to teach them the skills you would find here?  It's called trial and error. Nothing can replace actual experience in the field. Go out and get some!

### 1/5 — Unrealistic prices

*2015-12-06*

Way too expensive for an app.

### 2/5 — Love the idea

*2015-11-21, version 1.0.0*

I really like the idea of the app, but absolutely hate the idea of a big $ subscription. I would much rather pay a few bucks to get the app instead of having to subscribe.

### 1/5 — Videos don’t play.

*2023-04-05*

No streaming nothing will play

### 1/5 — Doesn’t load and trouble getting support

*2022-09-28*

This app was fantastic!  Tried to renew it and now nothing works.  Idea is great, looks like it has IT issues now.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2022-06-12*

I paid for a one-month subscription hoping this would be as good as the blacktail version that I tried years ago on an older phone. The videos don’t work at all, and when I tried deleting and reloading the app it wanted me to pay for a subscription again. I have already paid for a subscription I just turned off the auto renew because I wasn’t sure if I would like this app. Save your money, The app is garbage. I’m sure the content is good, but without support and video it’s not worth it.

### 1/5 — Roberto

*2022-03-10*

I love steve but the videos do not play
I tried iPad Pro 5 th gen and my iPhone 13, just audio . I tried to send messages no response .
If they would fix this issue it would be  a 10 star.

### 1/5 — Not great

*2022-01-15*

Videos don’t work and I paid for the subscription

### 1/5 — Good knowledge. But no video.

*2021-11-18*

First off, I can't get the videos to play, sound yes but no videos. I thought this would be a good app, previously had the blacktail hunter app and loved it, decided to upgrade to this and there's no video at all and none of the blacktail vids available.

### 1/5 — Not satisfied

*2021-10-18*

I paid for subscription and its not working 🤷‍♂️

### 1/5 — Video didn’t work

*2021-05-06*

I was ok with paying the $8 a month to have the videos downloaded but none of them worked.

### 1/5 — Videos won’t play

*2021-04-08*

I paid for the app but videos won’t play. I can’t get any app support.

### 1/5 — No audio

*2018-11-04*

Videos do not have audio so why did I waste my time and money subscribing?

### 5/5 — Great app, don’t listen to the naysayers!

*2019-01-07*

Steve is the man! No bs kinda dude with a lot of knowledge and video/ picture evidence to back it up. Tons of great tips and extras. Follow him on social media and you’ll see just how much effort and work he puts in to this lifestyle. Not a doubt everything he says he has learned from first hand experience time and time again. Might be a bit of an expensive subscription, but people use your brains, if it doesn’t take you a year to watch all the videos... don’t buy a year. Get out there like Steve, take his advice, learn yourself... and get after those predators!

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2019-01-03*

Amazing app witch teaches you about hunting certain game and what gear you should bring when hunting.

### 5/5 — Komie

*2017-11-03*

Amazing app. This guy is a machine that knows his stuff. Great teacher.

### 5/5 — These guys are killing it!!!

*2017-11-03*

These guys have really ironed out the wrinkles . My whole family has elk and moose in the freezer because of this app thank you so much

### 5/5 — I subscribed, now I can give a review which counts

*2016-05-08*

Priceless, this puts hunters ahead by a couple lifetimes chasing multiple species. The video versions of the sheep regulations is unreal. Being able to bring and utilize any on the videos along on my remote hunt is definitely revolutionary !

### 5/5 — WTF APPLE?!?

*2015-11-14*

I've downloaded the app & I love what I see but I keep writing a review & it keeps getting deleted!!!  Anti-hunting agenda at Apple???

### 5/5 — Outstanding app!

*2015-10-29*

Finally an app that provides everything you need to be successful in the field and you can bring it with you! Very knowledgable people providing YOU with their experiences AND knowledge. Great app!

### 5/5 — Howtohunt

*2015-10-29*

Looks great, lots of information. Great videos.

### 4/5 — Valuable information

*2017-10-17*

I was a bit hesitant to purchase the subscription at first glance. The app had bad reviews but most seemed to be app issues and not content issues. So I purchased it and worst case I'm out $10. However this is not the case, the app has been working fairly well, the videos or app can crash from time to time but it's reasonably stable with no issues.

• The tilt for full screen video is very sensitive so it pops back to vertical view to soon.

• The update feature on videos is a bit annoying as you aren't sure what videos need updating until you click on them then you have to reque the video for the update even though you just downloaded it. 

Now onto the good stuff, the content!

• So far I've been watching the Blacktail deer videos and they are loaded with valuable lessons. Some are pointless in my opinion but those are just a few. I can definitely say I've learned a lot just after watching through all the videos once. I am going back and making notes now. Then put these lessons into practice.

• The app developer seems to be open to suggestions and improvements to his app. The app needs a few quality of life improvements and it should be good to go! I am on the iPhone 7+. 

• Notifications on when new content is available needs to be added.

• Regular monthly content is important so I hope to see frequent updates. 

Thanks!

### 3/5 — No sound

*2019-09-12*

Can’t get the sound to work. I have re downloaded it a few times still to no avail.
