HighTine — real terrain science for your hunt. Stop guessing where and when to hunt your stands. HighTine runs real terrain analysis on your actual property — elevation, cover, terrain funnels, and live weather — to show you where and when deer are actually moving, not a generic tip list. PREDICT Five terrain models, each one explainable, not a black box: Wind & Thermal Flow, Deer Movement, Deer Bedding, Mature Buck Bedding, and Stand Placement. Every result is built from your property's real elevation, cover, and terrain — see exactly why a spot scored the way it did. STANDS Every stand gets a real score for every hour of the day — built from that stand's terrain, live weather for that exact hour, the wind direction you've told the app works, and your own hunt-pressure history there. Know when to sit, not just where. PROPERTY Full property assessment — rut timing calibrated to your state, movement corridors, and a season-long outlook so you know when to hunt a property, not just today.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: HighTine at 100% against Moultrie's 70%. HighTine also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Moultrie's advantage is ratings volume (40K vs 11) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Moultrie sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per month and HighTine sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $29.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
HighTine holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Moultrie has 40K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 70% of Moultrie's written reviews are positive against 100% of HighTine's.
Moultrie ships an update every 10 days, HighTine every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
