    Default Software: onX vs Basemap vs HuntStand

    Curious as to what you all are using and liking. I?ve picked up some tags for Nebraska this year and have been thinking about adding software to my kit bag.

    In my initial research, leaning towards BaseMap due to imagery clarity and cost for maps.

    I hunt antelope, elk, deer and waterfowl. Hoping to add some upland to the mix this year, maybe spring turkey - time dependent. Mostly CO, but new this year, have 4 doe tags for Nebraska whitetail.

    Me and my buddies all run OnX. Really happy with it. I also hear good things with Basemaps.

    Are you able to share data between friends in OnX?

    I run OnX, but have zero experience with the others. Always make sure to download your offline maps before you go.

    Good point. Do downloaded maps ?expire? after some time? I?d hate to clog the memory with old map files.

    I don't think so, but you could just delete them. I've gone through about 4 phones since I've had OnX and all my offline maps were saved to the cloud. I just had to download them again on my latest phone.

    OnX is now using a 3D feature like Google maps. That's pretty nice.

    OnX allows you update the offline map to get the newest data - so you can update as opposed to having a bunch of old ones on your device. You can also offload them from the phone but it saves the area so you can download it later.
