1. 5/5Can’t beat it for the money

   I use this app mainly for property lines and the mapping. Other apps are way more expensive a year for literally only one state worth of property lines. The 3D feature has to be the best thing about it, being able to look at a 3D map of the terrain in a hilly area really improves scouting. Only downfall is the map doesn’t show a lot of smaller creeks that are in the woods, but I can usually pull up google maps and it’ll show me if I’m really curious. I’ve never tried any of the weather stuff or go off of any of the “hunt predictions” so I can’t say anything about those. Truly if you want to know the weather check it on your phone and get out there in the woods regardless because it’s unpredictable. All in all tho it’s a very useful thing to have if you want to pay for the membership.

2. 1/5Won’t open without internet. Useless

   I wanted to like this app. I tested it at home and it was absolutely amazing. The features are everything I wanted and more. So I made some areas to download and left the next morning. The 1gb download would have no trouble completing by the next day when I left with my WiFi speed. The app however never let me know how the map data download was progressing after I clicked it. I gave it the benefit of the doubt and proceeded to the very isolated area I planned to scout. This is were it all fell apart. It turns out the app WILL NOT LOAD without internet access. You read that right. If it can’t login it won’t run apparently. An app for going to isolated areas doesn’t work without data... So I took the time to drive back to cell service so I could even load the map. Well. The map wasn’t there. I was able to download imagery and maps WHILE I had internet access but the download never actually worked so I didn’t have the data I needed for the trip. The app would also not stay running while minimized so I couldn’t even load the app when I had data and then use it later. The developer clearly values protecting their licenses beyond useful function of the app. I immediately canceled my subscription. I encourage everyone who intends to use this to seriously think it over. It might be great for you if you always have data but I don’t hunt in those areas. FWIW I’m on an iphone8 with Verizon service. I get service better than most others. It still doesn’t help in the deep woods. Fix these few things and I’ll change my review. As I said, I want to like this. But I can’t use it like this. It’s literally useless to me.

3. 3/5Land owners reveiw

   As a land owner, all this proliferation of data to the masses has been a huge problem with people seeing what we have had work hard to purchase and maintain and then hound the land owners for hunting privileges. We (landowners) have worked years, ate beans and rice, drove old cars, don't go out to eat, work 60-70 hours a week to have a quiet peaceful place to hunt and live in peace. Leave us alone and stay off the land. It is for friends and family. NOT strangers with an App. If a stranger calls or asks to hunt it will always be NO. Do you go to my church? Are you a blood relative? No no no no. Also. The these maps are based on county tax maps (GIS data, im in real estate) there are notoriously inaccurate. If you are trusting these maps without knowing the surveyor boundaries you could end up prosecuted for trespassing, loose your guns, loose years of hunting rights and possibly end up in jail. Not to mention the fines and a criminal record. Talk to people you know personally, show your of good character, go help work the land and repair habitat and then maybe you will get hunting rights.

4. 5/5Very useful app. Could use a couple of simple additions..

   Love the app, use it to mark down everything I see. A couple of things that I have experienced that I hope can be improved: When you have very bad reception and are recording your path, the recorded path will erase entirely when you go somewhere and have no reception. I understand not being able to continue the recorded path at that point, but it would be VERY helpful if it would auto save the path that was being recorded up to that point, and also if it would have an option to automatically resume the path whenever you get back into an area with reception. Second, I wish that it would show your current elevation when you are creating a marker or recording a path. No need to continuously track elevation, but i would love to be able to see what elevation the path began and ended at, with occasional updates every 500 feet up or down, or something like that. At the very least, having the best guess at current elevation when pinning a marker would be awesome. Other than those two things, it works awesome and I will continue to use it and pay the membership during the seasons I use it often.

5. 5/5Review

   When these apps first came out I burned through the free trial on all of them that I could find. When it was time to pay I chose HuntWise. I’ve been a user for 3 years now and don’t plan to ever switch. It’s cheaper than OnX for all state property lines and the mapping seems to always be updating to the current state of the lands. They have added a lot of cool features and updates in these 3 years and I don’t see them stopping anytime soon. I’m also an avid artifact hunter and this app is great for finding new lands to seek permission to hunt on. Did I also mention that HuntWise has a social Media attached to the app? It’s similar to Facebook but without all of the gossip, just awesome people posting about their outdoors adventures/hobbies.
