What are some apps you use besides onX

[AZsniper]

Looking for suggestions for things like moon rise, best time to see animals, etc. what are some of your favorite hunting apps?

 

[kissell59]

Toprut is free with an elite onX membership. I also use Huntstand for PA Whitetail hunting

 

[BigBadJohn]

i like the 'dark sky' weather app

 

[Jstumbaugh]

BaseMap is pretty solid too

 

[weekender7]

Gaia

 

[dtrkyman]

weather underground

 

[GrayGoose]

Windy is a good app for wind speed, direction and wind forecast.

Windy is a good app for wind speed, direction and wind forecast.

I second this. It takes into account terrain and is surprisingly accurate - even for changing winds in the public lands around the Chesapeake Bay and tributaries.

Gaia

How does Gaia compare to Alltrails?

 

[DudeBro]

I have the following (don't necessarily use them all on a regular basis):
-altimeter (quickly get GPS elevation)
-windy (discussed above)
-coordinates (quickly get MGRS for plotting)
-Garmin earthmate (inReach messaging)
-alltrails
-ballistic AE (get dope for long range shots)
-GNSS view (if I want to geek out and see what satellites should be available)

Shooter for my clicks. I am sure there are better, but it works for me.

Avenza for PDF maps. Best option I have found for TMA and FS maps. Both of which are needed for some areas I hunt.

I have BaseMap and Onx.Well be keeping Onx once Basemap runs out .

I use Strelok for my ballistics information.

Highly recommend the paid version. It's a one time fee and they have one of the best customer service.

What do you like better about OnX? I’ve been running BaseMap because it’s cheaper for national coverage, but hear a lot more people using OnX.

+1 for weather underground. Deer cast also consolidates a bunch of good weather & moon info into one platform

I prefer Gaia to both OnX and Basemap. Same functionality or better across the board IMO. Carplay integration is nice at times when running forest roads or looking for road-based waypoints from the truck, and they're back to working on Android Auto. Number of layers is pretty astounding. With that said, I've been considering giving OnX a go again because they're including memberships to TopRut and Huntin Fool for free.

Other Apps:
iExit for road trips - pretty indispensable
MyRadar for weather Radar
LunaSolCal for sunrise / sunset
Windy for Wind
Weather I've been going back and forth, currently Today Weather, Hyperlocal Weather, and Climacell. Some use Dark Sky as their source
Garmin Inreach App
Garmin Connect for my other Garmin Devices
Strava for training / etc.
Kestrel App, Kilo 2400 App, Autotrickler App, Ballistic X for tracking group size at the range

Mostly Instagram, I like to know what gear the influencers are 'running'. I can't imagine being caught out in last years camo pattern, would be the laughing stock of all the deer in the forest.

Elknut.
Tidegraph Pro
Marine Traffic (AIS)
My Radar

 

[Marmots]

Avenza is great for USFS or WMA lands that have maps available.

Torque Pro coupled with a cheap ODB II to bluetooth adapter has saved me so many times. Being able to check and clear engine codes on cross country trips is great.

Topo Maps for downloadable topos, Garmin Earthmate for my Inreach, OnX for mapping, a moon phase app, a sunrise and sunset app, Wunderground and the NOAA site for weather, and of course ElkNut's app.
