Der Export ist sehr praktisch für die jährliche Streckenmeldung. ### 2/5 — Kompass funktioniert nicht mehr *2025-10-05, version 4.1.2* Leider funktioniert in der App seit längerem auf dem iPhone16 der Kompass nicht mehr. Sehr schade, dass bei neuen Sitzen nun nicht mehr sicher die Windrichtung festgelegt werden kann. Bei anderen Apps funktioniert der Kompass einwandfrei. Er ist ebenso kalibriert. Nur in dieser App zeigt er überall hin, nur nicht nach Norden… ### 5/5 — Excellent app and support - value for money! *2025-08-24, version 4.1.2* I have been looking for an app like this which keeps all my hunting info in one place - on my phone. From hunts, harvests to expenses. This app has lots of options that you pay once for, not a yearly subscription. Michael is incredibly helpful and answered all my queries. Value for money, highly recommended! ### 1/5 — Benutzerfeindliche Oberfläche - unpraktikabel *2025-07-15, version 4.1.1* Ich habe die App heute für 10€ erworben. Bei mir erscheint unser Revier stets als komplett weiße Fläche, obwohl ich zig mal versucht habe die entsprechenden .kml Dateien hochzuladen. Ich hab schon versucht manuell die Codes umzuschreiben. Aber man muss festhalten für den normalen Nutzer extrem unpraktikabel. Warum kann man sein Revier nicht einfach in der App erstellen? Layout zudem komplett veraltet - Geldverschwendung. ### 5/5 — Top Support *2025-05-21, version 4.0.18* Vielen Dank für die super Unterstützung Das ist Service ### 1/5 — Nicht bedienerfreundlich *2025-04-07, version 4.0.18* Ich versuche jetzt seid 3 Stunden die Daten meiner Jagdkameraden in diese App hochzuladen. Ich habe für 3 Euro sogar ein Kauf innerhalb der App getätigt, also insgesamt 13 Euro investiert. Kurz: es klappt nicht. Die Anleitungen sind sind viel zu kompliziert und alles andere als smart. Ausdrücklich keine Empfehlung! ### 3/5 — Gute App, aber verbesserungswüdig *2025-02-11, version 4.0.16* Die App ist im Prinzip super. Leider gibt es ein paar Schwächen im UI Design. Leider ist es schnell passiert, dass die Position einer Ansitzeinrichtung überschrieben ist. Kann leider nicht rückgängig gemacht werden. Leider ist es auch z.B. nicht möglich mehrere Einrichtungen auszuwählen und zu löschen. Sehr schade, weil ein Import von einer Sicherung zu einer Dublizierung von Einrichtung führt. Die hinterlegte Support Adresse für Kontaktanfragen bzgl. technischer Probleme funktioniert auch nicht mehr. ### 5/5 — Einfach super! *2025-01-12, version 4.0.16* Sehr Preiswert mit stetigen Updates und super Support vom Entwickler! ### 5/5 — Super für Jungjäger *2024-12-07, version 4.0.14* Ich bin seit einem Jahr Jäger in einem Revier, dass ich davor nicht kannte. Seit 4 Monaten benutze ich jetzt diese App in der Vollversion und ich könnte nicht mehr ohne sie. Es hilft ungemein sich einen Überblick zu schaffen. Es erleichtert die Planung der Ansitze, der Pirschwege und vorallem der ganzen Einrichtungen die im Revier zu verwalten sind. Da ich mich auch tgl. damit auseinandersetze und ich sehe was man alles einpflegen kann, vergesse ich auch nicht die ganzen Möglichkeiten, die mir zu Reviergestaltung, Hege und Pflege beigebracht worden sind. Auch die Funktionen des Kassenbuchs und vorallem der Wildtruhe sind am Anfang auch sehr sehr hilfreich. Die einfache, aber klare Gestaltung und Anwendung der App überzeugt mich auch und sollte mal etwas unklar sein, gibt es fast für alles eine Anleitung in den Optionen. Ich kann diese App ohne Bedenken jeden weiter empfehlen und freue mich auf weitere Verbesseungen und Updates. Waidmannsheil ### 5/5 — Einfach, preiswert und gut! *2024-12-04, version 4.0.14* Mehr braucht man nicht! Keine Abo-Abzocke, sehr gut! ## Frequently asked questions about iHunt Journal ### What does the iHunt Journal app do?
