HuntLine IQ turns trail camera photos into real deer movement intelligence. Every hunter who uploads a photo makes the picture clearer for everyone hunting nearby. You see what is moving around your property, when it moved, and the conditions it moved in — built from real observations, not guesses. WHAT YOU GET Deer movement intelligence Movement trend, daylight activity, morning and evening peak windows, and the wind, pressure and moon conditions deer actually moved in. Reports are published for your state, your region, your county, and progressively closer to your property as the data around you grows. A community feed built on distance Trail camera sightings from other hunters, organized by how far they are from your property — 0-2, 2-3, 3-5, 5-7 miles and wider. Vote shoot or pass on what you see. Your exact location is never shared, only privacy-safe distance bands. Harvest intelligence See the bucks and does taken across your state, with the composition and timing that tell you how the season is actually going. Your private hunting log Log a sit in seconds. HuntLine IQ saves the temperature, wind and barometric pressure automatically, so months later you can open an old hunt and see exactly what the morning felt like. Filter by property and stand, and watch your season totals build. Hunting weather that matters Today's temperature, wind direction and speed, pressure trend, sunrise and sunset, plus the hours ahead — the conditions that decide whether it is worth going out. Missing Buck alerts Lost a buck after the shot? Alert nearby hunters so they can watch their cameras for him. HOW IT WORKS Drop a pin on your hunting property. Every distance in the app is measured from that pin. Upload trail camera photos as you pull cards, and the community intelligence around you sharpens with each one. Reports only publish when there is enough real data behind them — enough observations, from enough separate contributors, spread across enough ground. If the data is not there yet, HuntLine IQ says so instead of showing you a number it has not earned. MEMBERSHIPS Free — the community feed from 7-10 miles out and wider, statewide intelligence reports, one property, and a private hunting log. Pro ($3.33/month, $39.99 billed annually) — the feed from 3-5 miles out, intelligence down to the 3-5 mile scale, two properties, and Missing Buck alerts. Elite ($5.00/month, $59.99 billed annually) — every viewing range from 0-2 miles, the closest intelligence, Season reports, and three properties. PRIVACY Your property location is never shown to anyone. Photos are stripped of location data on upload, and other hunters only ever see which distance band an observation falls into. Counts, never coordinates. CURRENTLY LIVE Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Wisconsin and Tennessee, with more states as the community grows. https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
