### 3/5 — Weather?

*2025-11-01*

I like the red moon guide and it has proven to play a big part of the few hunts that I have had. Your weather in particular needs to have more information with models of current conditions which include detailed information on the wind and barometric pressure .Models of weather radar snd 2 week forecast as well historical data. Thank world be awesome!

### 2/5 — Pay 32$!!?!?

*2025-10-04*

I’m not paying 32$ just to use and app it’s not worth even downloading

### 4/5 — Great app

*2025-05-25*

Looking at the photos from the rubbbb

### 2/5 — Bait & Switch

*2022-10-10, version 1.4.4*

Yeah sure this app was free. Free because it only gives you OLD information. I do not need to know what happened 30 days ago. It’s about forecasting. Oh? You want to know what this weekend will be like? Oh, well! That’s going to cost you a $25.00 subscription. Pelosi would be proud. You gotta buy it to see what’s in it. No thanks. Fool me once, shame on me.

### 5/5 — Must have hunt planner

*2022-07-19*

As an outfitter and guide in KS - I strategically plan client hunts during the red moon. Another tool to help you bag that giant buck!

### 5/5 — Best whitetail deer app

*2022-07-15*

A phenomenal tool for me for planning hunts when a big buck will most likely will be moving during daylight hours. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — 👍 👍

*2022-01-27, version 1.2.6*

Harvest my first 150 inch deer, this past season using the Moon Guide app. Two thumbs up!!

### 1/5 — Subscription

*2021-10-26, version 1.2.6*

Very disappointed in this app. After purchasing a subscription, and adding my name email address and where I supposedly heard of this app it will not allow me to go any further. There is no place to contact the company to resolve the issue.

### 5/5 — Moon guide!

*2021-10-14, version 1.2.6*

Great tool to use while deee hunting!

### 1/5 — Worthless app

*2021-10-08, version 1.2.6*

I asked for a refund right after I purchased and still haven’t received a refund. It doesn’t give you squat. Don’t spend your money on this

### 1/5 — Junk app

*2025-12-08, version 1.8.2*

24.99 a year and all it will let me do is create a password and tell me there is an error updating

### 1/5 — None

*2025-11-08*

Deer movement part
Could be more detailed I understand not exact science but seems pretty unprofessional

### 1/5 — Bait and Switch with too many Ads.

*2025-10-16*

Downloaded it to test out and it only shows you historical data from the past month.  At least do a 14-day trial if you want to try to hook people and make a compelling sales pitch.  Only things free were weather and things like that which you get anywhere.   Deeply disappointed at being flooded with all the advertising as well.  It’s a bit much and takes away from the user experience (if I could’ve actually used the data).  Temper the desire to turn a buck with allowing users to try it to shoot a buck and the sales will speak for itself.  Change those things and I’ll try it.

### 1/5 — Free version provides no function

*2023-10-18*

You have to pay for the subscription to see your current moon guide hunt cast.. free let’s you see the previous month.. kinda ridiculous if you are skeptical of the app to pay 23 bucks with no provided tools to see if it’s worth the price. Devs Lack common sense

### 1/5 — APP IS JUNK

*2023-04-22, version 1.5.0*

APP IS JUNK AND GOTTA PAY 24.00 DOLLARS FOR AN UPGRADE PRO OR SOMETHING YOU CAN SHOVE THE 24 DOLLARS UP YOUR BUTT I AINT PAYING FOR IT

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2022-11-22*

I can’t get from the location screen into the actual app itself.

### 1/5 — Trying to make me buy stuff

*2022-10-22*

This app is trying To make ma buy something cause it says I’m in September when I’m in October trying to get me to buy a pro pass

### 1/5 — Email not sent

*2022-10-05*

I will give it 1 star for now.  I have bought this app and now I can not get pass Account Verification Access.  I hit the button to send email and it has failed to do that.  I did it last night and went through this process 10 times and still no email.  

Yes, i looked in Spam folder, and other folders, still nothing.  

So for now i will rate it 1 star until resolved.

### 1/5 — Junk

*2021-10-27, version 1.2.6*

*2026-01-17*

Excellent App to have!

### 5/5 — Finally got to use it

*2025-12-21*

I used this last weekend and it works pretty dam good. Saw a nice buck out running around . Could not get a shot on him though.

### 5/5 — Weather and wind

*2025-12-01*

I really like the wind direction and forecast part of the app.

### 5/5 — Wind

*2025-10-18*

Wind indicator
Is worth getting the app

### 5/5 — It works

*2024-07-19, version 1.7.0*

I spend over 200 days a year in the woods, scouting on 4 different properties in 4 different states. Last year I moved my hunt on my family’s farm back a week because of what this app was telling me. I was showing great trail cam pics the week I was originally planning to go, but all at night. First afternoon I sat on stand, I was glad I made the decision I did! Weather might have been a little worse the week I was there, but the deer were on their feet! Second morning of hunting I rattled in 3 bucks, placing a 460 grain stick right in the boiler room of a 139 3/8” 8 point. My largest 8 in over 30 years of hunting. My suggestion to you, if you’re hunting multiple states, locations, give it a try. I was skeptical too, but the proof is in my stocked freezer!

### 5/5 — AB big Whitetails

*2024-03-12*

Iv killed to date 8 B&C Alberta bucks..  This app will change the way you hunt, it will help you determine whether you should be in the feeding area or the bedding areas of your target buck that you were chasing with unmatched accuracy.. THANK you moon guide … If you don’t have it get it  !!!!!

### 5/5 — The best app I’ve ever used!

*2022-10-22*

I’ve used the moonguide for 10 years now and absolutely love it! It’s amazing how spot on it is with mature buck movement on my trail cams and sightings from the stand. I’ve harvested 5 bucks over 170” and had opportunities at many more and all of them have been on the red moon. I highly recommend the moonguide to anyone who is looking to take their hunting to the next level!

### 5/5 — schmidty- new features took it to the next level

*2022-08-02*

i’ve been using the MoonGuide as a tool to killing over 20 mature bucks in the last dozen or so years now, it is the single most important information you can use on selecting days to go in and have the highest chances of seeing your buck during daylight. Now that it’s been available in an app for a few years it’s been an even easier tool to use having everything right at your fingertips on your cell phone, the new format of the app that was put out this season takes everything to the next level!!! I have multiple tree stands in different states and now that I can have all those Stands marked on maps nothing will be forgotten and I can pinpoint everything I need to know from the app as far as my stand locations go. This will also be a great feature for scouting especially shed hunting, marking found sheds as well as scrapes and rub lines and saving them in maps. Looking forward to keeping everything stored in the newly improved MoonGuide app. Aim small, miss small!!

### 5/5 — The best tool for planning hunt dates.

*2022-07-31*

I’ve use the Moon Guide for many years to plan my vacation times to maximize my hunting opportunities.  Now with the app and it’s new features, I can have access anywhere I go and can even use it in the field to mark camera and tree stand placements.  Definitely one of the best tools I have to help me be successful.  Plan your best hunt!

### 5/5 — Hands down best hunting app

*2022-07-19*

Last year was my first year using this app. I was a little skeptical when I had to pay but it came highly recommended from a friend so I gave it a shot. So glad I pulled the trigger and trust me I pulled the trigger, multiple times last year! I planned all of my trips to hunt camp based on this app and just about every hunt I saw deer. Shot several nice ones and let many walk, including a few nice 8 pointers. Can’t wait to use it again this year and hopefully get a shot and some of those 8 pointers I let walk. Highly, highly recommend this app! Will never hunt without it!
