OnX Offroad: Trail Maps & GPS Customer Service

OnX Offroad: Trail Maps & GPS Positive Reviews

Very impressed, but missing a few featuresI have been using OnX Off-Road for a year now (Premium), and it has been a great tool for both navigation and trip planning. The map downloading works flawlessly, and the growing list of marked off-road excursions makes it fantastic for finding great spots. Living in the NorthEast, fun trails can be hard to come by, but even in the past year, lots more have been popping up. The photos and description of the trails is great for sizing up your ride. My biggest gripe about the app (which is minor) is that the search function is not very effective. You can find specific locations (coordinates, towns, names of trails or campsites). It would be great if you could search all of the campsites, waterfalls, or gas stations, etc. in a certain area, and they would be highlighted and compiled into a list. This would help out when planning a ride. Instead, I currently use other apps or maps to find these spots, then add waypoints in OnX. All in all, fantastic app that is an affordable and effective way of navigating in the backcountry and finding awesome spots that match your skill level and off-road setup..G. RiehlVersion: 22.17.0

Release your inner offroaderI got this app a year ago, and absolutely love it, I use it all the time in my personal life and sometimes even at work. The integrated private land plat is a fantastic feature for my research and planning for my general exploring, especially in the midwest where public land is scarce, and you have to find cool rough county roads that are designated public via the plat lines. There is a few features the app could have moving forward but in the year I've been using the app and talking with support and development, they are very focused on refining the app at all times. At the end of the day they are offroaders at heart too and want other offroaders to find success and fun outdoors, the bonus for them is that you use their app to help you get there, but that bonus is mutual because it is a valuable tool. This app will save a day or two a long the way if you use it long enough, I went to a trail in the East TN Appalachian Mtns. and the first choice I went to was closed (Hope they add a check in feature to help prevent this later on down the road, I believe they will). So I pulled up the app found another trail within 10 miles away, rerouted and still enjoyed my day offroading, there was very little service in this area too and the offline map I saved of the area backed me up and made sure I still made it despite the bad service. If you intend to offroad anywhere from a handful of times a year to every weekend or even more, On X is worth having..TheOutlawTorn1999Version: 22.47.0

Have confidence in where your going!!!I love this app. I have been using it since they first released it and it has never let me down. I was invited out to the Mojave Desert for a few days of wheeling and I couldn’t turn it down. I had to meet the group up later on due to work schedule, but that wasn’t stopping me from going out there alone. You see I had the OnX app. We took off into the night just my dog and I, to find the group on the outer edge of the preservation. We found them no sweat and set up camp for the night. The following day, the group organizers were explaining to everyone a few of the do’s and don’ts for the trip. I came to realize about 80 percent of the convoy had no idea where we were going. It was an amazing feeling to be able to have the confidence to know where I was going. It was miles of empty desert in every direction. It’s intimidating when you don’t know your bearings and everything looks the same. With the onXoffroad app there was no worry of getting lost. Another great feature is the ability to record your location and the exact trail or path you drove. If you need to double back to the beginning. Or if you enjoyed the trip that much, you can always go right back to where you started. This app is definitely worth the money if you regularly hit the dirt.

Rocken Off RoadJust like my onX hunting app that I have had for many years. I just purchased a newer Jeep and the off road app has a ton of options. And if you are smart enough to download a bunch of maps in the offline section. That way when and if you just so happen to get into an situation that you have no signal. In the offline mode you are able to use the app without even noticing that you are offline with no signal. It’s truly amazing what the app is able to do. Online or offline won’t make a difference!!! Definitely worth every penny!!! Specially if you spend any time off-road. And did I mention that the app will let you know who owns the land with contact info and property lines that are very accurate!!! And that is a valuable feature!!! Specially if there is someone that is trying to tell you that you are trespassing. And when you show them your onX app and the property owners name and contact info. And there jaw hits the ground. 😉🥸Lol. Or you look at your app and and catch the land owners name. You then ask them if they know such a suchs name. Then they assume that you know them. Well to rap this up. I can not say enough good things about this app and the onX hunting app!!! Be safe and have fun!!! 🛻🛻🛻🚔🚔🚔.Stephens iphone XVersion: 22.29.0

Great app and great customer supportI had some issues with the fact that I accidentally created two two accounts, one on the iPhone and one on my computer. I didn’t realize what I had done and was confused by the problems I was having. One email to the onX folks was all it took to get attention and get it straightened out. There were a few back and forths that ended up with them treating me very well and even sending follow up emails to make sure all was well. Great people to deal with! As far as the app itself, I’m still trying to figure out all of the nuances and particulars but I’m really liking it. I have the Elite version and love all the information it gives you. There’s plenty of resources online both from the OnX folks and the community. Outside of the trails everyone raves about(and rightly so) it’s enjoyable to just use while traveling. Running it on my phone concurrently with a map app Apple CarPlay in the car gives you a great amount of information about the area around you. Or, with a flip of a button on your phone you can have it load up in CarPlay and have it on the “big screen” in the truck. I can’t recommend this app enough..J_i_mmyVersion: 24.41.1

Works great!!Side by Side adventure in the mountains of western Arkansas with buddies where there was barely if any signal at times! Some of the guys had other location/trail apps that worked but didn’t show all the trails we were on and didn’t work most times with no signal. OnXoffroad worked every time on the dot! Update: Words above are still true, but doing some looking around at trails in different states that I’m planning on going, the marked trails, green, red/orange, blues some multiple colors on top of each other. There needs to be something in the app telling what that means like a map legend or something. I still love the app don’t get me wrong. Now I have clicked on the different color trails and best I can figure out there are certain dates they are open but still confusing. Guess it doesn’t matter to much because when I do get to get to these areas I’m wanting to go if it’s open it’s open. Just think the app is great showing right where you are even with no signal..EzymnyVersion: 20.18.0

Amazing app!This app is amazing. We rented some SxS’s for a trip up to the mountains in northern Arizona and finding user friendly maps thru the Forest Service websites is impossible. I stumbled upon this app and man am I so happy I did! I was immediately able to see all trails in our area and get detailed info on the trail itself. My fiancé is always afraid we will “get lost” out in the woods and it can make for stressful rides. However, with this app her fear was totally gone! We were EASILY able to track our trail on the map, follow the trails, see where we were, distance traveled, locate numerous trailheads and staging areas, see and find where trails met up, ect. We were pretty deep in the mountains and woods and we were 100% offline with no service and able to still easily see all this info with the freaking amazing ability to still use the trail maps and tracking while offline with no service. This app made our trip and our rides SO enjoyable. Thank you for the awesome app! Made our outings awesome! This is DEF a keeper. We will be using this every time we go riding for sure..HmareeL22Version: 20.18.0

Great app.This has been a great. I travel cross country as a National Park Service employee. Instead of paying 100+ dollars per night at a hotel, I like to camp between my summer destinations. This app allows me to find a legal and out of the way place to camp both in both my travels to different parks, and during the months I’m working at those parks. I also have the paid version of Gaia GPS. Gaia GPS is also a great app and a little cheeper but onX Overland offers way more and is a little more up to date. You can creat waypoints, filter out trails that your vehicle definitely won’t go on, and plan entire trips with ease. The few gripes I have about this app is not every trail has photos of the trail and it’s a bit expensive. With that said the positives of this app definitely out weigh the negatives. If you travel a lot and prefer camping over hotels, or you just like adventures and getting out on the trail, then this is the app for you..4866AKVersion: 23.9.0

Good summer and winterBeen using the app a good 3 years now both summer and winter. It's pretty good with forest roads I would say over 95 percent of the time it's right on. I ran into few times it's off or trail not on it. The tracking feature is great when in new area that has a lot of off shoots and most of the forest roads are not marked or not readable. I use it in winter time too with the snow machine on my iPad , only issues is keeping it warm enough since cold will kill the battery fast. Always have a back up like paper maps since it's limited to electronic that can fall...had it happen but was able to backtrack from where we were at. The way point feature is nice too I can mark certain locations and add a picture, that way can always come back to that spot quicker. I have the hunt app and use that too and add picture of whatever I scouting or just want to remember where that bear or buck or bull elk was..Dakota wineVersion: 23.43.0

Peace of Mind!I’m an older gentleman and in the past I would avoid going off-road to far, because of my lack of confidence when navigating trails and getting lost. The older I get, the more I question my abilities. I’m no good navigating with a gps or any other kind of technology, and tried many ,only to be frustrated time after time, after all I was taught paper maps , it’s all we had. I looked at Onyx and downloaded the app, once again expecting to delete after a few attempts, as I’ve done with many others. I used the Tracking feature and loved it. That alone was worth it for me. I watched a few videos about route building, offline maps etc. and am getting much better with it. It’s easy and extremely accurate. I have regained my confidence in my navigating skills and can’t wait for this years trip out west. Thanks you guys/gals, my future trips look much brighter!.MenojohnVersion: 24.13.0

Great tool for off-roadingBought the app and haven’t been more happy with a trail map. Offline downloading works nice. Being able to pin locations and color coordinate is a big help. Plus the trails mapped out are really easy to see and plan a route. It is still a decent idea to have Gaia to cross reference with with a Nat geo map to see if a trail is gated or is actually accessible. Love that there are updates coming out with additional trails and info for areas. Very nice that the community can add photos and recent trail conditions to maps out trails so anyone looking to do popular trails and research before planning a trip. Only thing I’m hoping to see be added is the ability for the app to be used on a CarPlay radio. Currently just have it on my phone mounted to by dash but if it could be on the radio would be very convenient. Still a 10/10 app and wouldn’t be able to explore as much without it and know I’m going somewhere I won’t be let down by..Crew 412Version: 20.50.0

Potentially a great app!!!I used OnX Hunt for two years now and love how it works for hunting. Never had any gripes. This app is almost a pure copy of that app but..... That's not a good thing. Needs a few tweaks that cater to the off-roader. Also this is going to stir up some controversy in the riding communities. I live in Michigan. I am looking for a good app for snowmobile trails. When I get on the app you have all the snowmobiling trails labeled well on there but when I sort by rides there is nothing labeled for snowmobiling just all sorts of wheeled vehicles. And in Michigan most snowmobile trails are actually closed to ATV/SxS/ wheeled vehicles. And vice versa for snowmobiles on ATV trails. If someone didn't know any better a person using this app could ride on those trails when they aren't supposed to and risk angering property owners that could revoke access to those trails. Next thing you need is a better layer sorting system here. The hairline dashed trail lines are difficult to see and even more difficult when out on the trails in bright sunlight. I think giving an option to change the lineweight/thickness and color would be a good bet. And if that is too complicated for coding purposes maybe just select a more bold and brightly colored line. I think you guys are on to something great as having a membership for one app that can do all these different hobbies is awesome. Keep up the good work this is on the right path..Happy HairyVersion: 5.9.2

Very Understanding and Compassionate StaffI recently signed up with onX and also applied for the free one week trial. It was during that time that we went through our first hurricane and were flooded with 7’ of water. I somehow remembered to call and cancel my membership as I didn’t know when I’d be able to use it again. I was told that not only would they put my membership on hold until I requested it to be activated but that they wanted to give me two years free!!! I don’t know bout you, but I’m not used to receiving news like that in this day and age! I AM IMPRESSED! Fast forward through another hurricane, we had our first chance to get way and try the app this week and we’re more than impressed! It was very accurate and helpful since we were in a place we’d never been or even seen on a map before. Needless to say I’m hooked! Cam Gause Weeki Wachee, FL.ReliefvalvVersion: 24.43.1

Seems good needs improvementsThe App seems to function well in vertical mode on a device in horizontal mode it’s like all GPS apps, you lose 90% of the functionality. Most people that use these off-road for side by siding especially people with a Can-Am Maverick x3 with a factory tablet hold. We know that the tablet is meant to be in the horizontal position. With this app like many, you can not touch a waypoint you have already set and get the info or drop down. You lose the function bar at the bottom in horizontal view that you see in the Vertical view. I think If you change or rotate the device I think the app should stay the same. Kind of disappointed because I paid the money to use this in our SXS and the functionality is gone how we intended to use it. The device we have iPad 10.5 will not fit in the tablet holder in the vertical position. Please if you can change this and I would be willing to re-rate my review. Also are you planning on a snowmobile version of this? Thanks..Joe_DirttVersion: 20.18.0

I’ve TRIED THEM ALLI have used ONX for over a year and after using other apps this is my first choice. The best thing about it is the newest update that rates each trail and road by using color coding. While using another app I was led unknowingly into a trail near Moab, Utah called Pritchett Canyon. This trail is WAY beyond my skill level and I was very lucky to get through uninjured. With ONX the same trail is clearly marked in red which tells me it is extreme. On the other app it was indicated exactly the same as the road I traveled on with my motorhome, so I had no way to know how extreme it was. This kind of mistake will never happen while using ONX. I am a happy user of ONX forever. The customer service is also great. They have a phone number on their site,(unlike most other apps), and you speak to a real person almost as soon as it rings. This is a great app well worth the money..The map nutVersion: 24.21.0

Used in Multiple states for work and playI travel a lot for work using a variety of vehicles to get into back country areas on public land. I use onX off-road and hunt to know what I am getting into so I don’t break my equipment. I also am an avid off-roader in my personal time and have used onX off-road in 16 different states and have enjoyed the info that they provide when I get to a new area. They give me the confidence when I get to a new place about what trails I can hit without having to track down all the local knowledge before getting out on the trails. I look forward to using onX in the future. I would like to see a way to link accounts across hunt and off-road along with having a way local off-road clubs could add contact info (if they are willing) so folks new to the area could reach out with questions..Rfd98tjVersion: 22.17.0

Hire a UX designer and I will pay for thisThis app is one of the most awful apps from UX perspective. Functionality is great with nice maps but I am paying for Alltrails over this because of how awfully this works. If they would fix this I would swtich as this has slighly better maps for offline 4x4. But till that.. I am not paying for a company cheap enough not to hire designers. E.g. going into search mode takes almost a minute (On Ipad), search results are not sorted and I cannot sort. Cannot search for trails but roads only then I have to click on the road - show nearby trails. I cannot hide annoying temperatures. I set metric units and still see Farenheit. So few options when search (free text and thats is). 2 stars for the great maps and the community who is uploading photos and reviews (not that big) at least in my area..Botond123456Version: 21.15.1

Best overland platformToday I got back from a multi-day overland trip that took place near San Diego, CA. I used this app to plan the entire route for the trip as well as to see where I was going. The fact that it has thousands of trails already marked makes it very easy to plan a route. Many trails even have a ton of information about them included when you tap them. Even when there’s trails not ‘officially’ marked, it still has most marked as single/dual tracks. You can add different types of markers and waypoints when planning a long trip, which is very useful as they can become very clustered sometimes. Downloading offline maps has never been easier as well. Just pick an area on the map and boom. In my opinion, best off-road/overland maps platform out there. Far easier to use than popular competitors. Definitely made the annual subscription worth it!.AaronsurfsVersion: 20.18.0

This app saved our bacon!We went looking for a particular trail in Southern California, and could not find the trailhead so downloaded this app. We proceeded to drive at least four hours in. Then the real problem came. No cell service and trails going every which way. No idea how to get back and no one around. Getting dark and cold. Another rig rolled down the cliff, laying on its side. Nobody in it. Scared the —- out of us. This app put a blue line on the map, just like we were navigating to Starbucks in town! Rookie mistake by a self proclaimed rookie, but I would highly recommend that you download this before you go exploring. Our bodies would probably still be out there being eaten by birds if I didn’t have it! :-) I don’t know if there are other similar options, but this one works great for me, so I’m keeping it!.PtenereilloVersion: 24.9.0

The Perfect Jeepin’ app!Like many of you, I began out using the National Forest Service maps that I would get every few years when they would update it. As mobile apps began to pop up for off-road mapping, none of them them could do it really well. Then onX Offroad: Trail Maps & GPS came on scene. The off the grid tracking has worked perfectly. It is incredibly easy to save your routes and to access them. I love being able to insert photographs along the route, as well as add notes etc, that way as I use them again or send them to others we have visual references. With the new ability to download the maps for off Grid use is very helpful. It’s just the perfect app for going off road. I’ve never Jeep’d by a trail that wasn’t on my app. Highly recommended..AZcyberBronc7Version: 24.49.1

Closed Trails not closed on appI use OnX off-road exclusively when riding in Western Arkansas as well as for hunting. This deer season, I travel down a road/trail that is on OnX maps, as I had for years. This road is now closed; with NO closure sign, gate or earthen mound. I parked and proceeded to hunt. I received a $230 fine for having my SXS on this trail. I showed the officer the map, he said it’s the wrong map. I showed him the road is not closed on Avenza either, nor on the Forest service map that I carry. The US Forest Service Officer stated that the only up to date map is the MVUMs (motor vehicle usage maps). ONX-off-road and Hunt apps need to ensure their customers are provided with the most up to date and reliable maps. They should ensure that they are using the appropriate MVUM or have a KEY to show which trails have been verified to be open and which have not. Otherwise there’s no real reason to pay for an app that is gonna lead you down a trail to a $230 fine..Joey and BethVersion: 20.46.0

Almost perfectI’ve sold this app to soooo many people, I should be getting commission! I absolutely love it. We’ve explored so many new places we would have never known existed without this app. I wish I could give it 5 stars, but you gotta fix this problem: I’m going out on a limb here and guessing most people are using this app on a iPhone or iPad. I’m also guessing most people mount those devices sideways, especially considering most mounts will only take the device sideways. That is where the app needs help. For me, as soon a I “Record My Track” and secure my iPad in its mount (sideways), my track is off, it shows me pointing in a different direction, and lags. Following the route becomes confusing. PLEASE FIX THIS! Like I said, I love this app. I’ve tried several others, and this one is by far the best..DesertRat13Version: 21.41.0

Glad I got the subscription!Since purchasing our latest jeep, my wife and I knew we would be traveling throughout the country, looking for places to do mile to moderate off highway driving. OnX Offroad has allowed us to find trails in 10 different states in the last three weeks. Over the next three weeks will be traveling through another 11 states and while we will not be off Roading and all of them, we will be looking to do off highway exploring in several of them, including Wyoming, Montana, South Dakota, Wisconsin, Tennessee, and North Carolina on ex allows. Us to find trails. Gives us a pretty accurate idea of what to expect (except in Utah, the trail ratings are lies in Utah.) we can’t say enough really nice things about onX Offroad. Glad we have it really we are..Smokerider54Version: 24.33.1

Discouraged with purchaseI paid the $30 for this app and it’s not great but just ok. Very frustrated that the first thing you see when you pay the $30 is that you should have paid the $99 if you actually want to use the app lol. I wouldn’t recommend this app unless you plan on paying the $99 and even then I’m not so sure it’s worth it. Especially since you have to pay $99 every year! Way too much money if you ask me. I will not be continuing my subscription next year. I live in Utah which is home to ATV and UTV trails and the first time I used the app I ended up in a dead end River bottom. I’m sure it’s not the apps fault but I wish it were user friendly and a way to see where you are on a map without cell service. This is useless when in the mountains. Maybe I should have paid the $30 and an additional $99 to have this feature??.HappyCamper??77Version: 22.9.0

Incredibly useful tool BUTComplaint: While recording tracks, the app would crash constantly. You could usually pick up where you left off, but occasionally all your progress would be lost. That being my only complaint, I have used this app every time I go out exploring. I use the version that shows land owners which is helpful while trying to find dispersed camping. The offline maps work beautifully and I’ve found some INCREDIBLE spots to camp for a night. Suggestion: I also like being able to post updated reviews of OHV trails and forest service roads, but I wish I could share publicly when there’s a closed gate or other barrier. This would have saved me countless miles on some trips. Consider implementing a user-dependent feature (like WAZE does for reporting stalled vehicles or the 5-0) that allows us to share closed gates, barriers, or flooded/impassable water crossings and when other users come up on the area they can confirm that it is still closed, or is instead open. OnX has proven to be an invaluable tool thus far and I’m happy to continue with my subscription. I’m hoping to have many more safe and successful adventures with its use!.BordercollieflowerVersion: 24.5.0

It’s OKThere are a few things this app needs to be great - 1) have a way for users to report trails that are closed for whatever reason; 2) once you find a trail there is no way to get directions to the start/end of the trail - the app just locates the trail but then it leaves it up to you to find how to get to that trail - building in integration with Google/Apple Maps and/or Waze seems like it should be intuitive but it’s not; 3) there is no way to contact the developer or support in the app - there should be a way to provide this feedback right in the app instead of having to leave a review here to tell the developer. In any event, it seems like a solid app - didn’t crash and provided nice offline maps that you can set the area for to download so you can view them without any cell signal. Hopefully the developer can add the features above and if so I will update my review at that time..BirdbathbuzzVersion: 20.42.0

GlitchyThis app is perfect for adventure motorcyclist such as myself. Having offline maps downloaded to your device for times when you are not with cellphone service is very convenient. Creating routes at home prior to adventure, complete with dropped pins of highlight points, is simple to do. Unfortunately this app has two major flaws. The first is that it cannot be used for turn by turn directions as typical navigation software allows. Instead you have to simply follow a line on the map as best as you can. I’ve read that this feature is being rolled out but I’ve yet to see it. The HUGE issue I’m having has me looking for an OnX alternative as I simply cannot work with the app as is. The maps get VERY glitchy!! Often times it’s severe enough that the app cannot be used!! OnX support has been helpful on trying to correct this issue but the only way that is successful requires me to delete and reinstall. This fixes it but only temporarily. Reinstalling every few weeks is getting old!! My recommendation for those interested in this app would be to start with a basic subscription first. Save on the premium membership upgrade until after you are confident that you won’t have this problem..Since 1992Version: 24.45.4

BEST 4x4 TRAIL MAP/APP I'VE EVER USEDOver the last couple of years I have used a few different apps and dashboard GPS units, and OnX Offroad IS BY FAR THE BEST! The trail detail/information is great - every off-road trail i've looked for is there, with additional information such as difficulty, etc.. Even the extreme trails are there.. The satellite imagery is incredible, the mapping tools are simple to use and the ability to view/edit/create routes on my iPhone, my ipad, or my computer and have them all sync'd is great.. The ONLY thing this app lacks is Apple Carplay compatibility.. If it was Carplay capable and I could view the map on my in-dash Carplay head-unit, this app would literally be the best thing since fizzy beer. So until then, it's only the best thing since sliced bread. Seriously.. I am very happy with this app..Mr.B.Version: 20.18.0

Best of the west!I’ve been riding off road for over 60 years. Started back in the days when we used the sun to guide us! Then we moved on to DeLorme maps which was a big improvement. Now we have GPS with all the capabilities we could ever ask for. I’ve used four of the best mapping software packages available and concluded OnX is by far the easiest and most advanced there is available in todays market. I’m 78 years old and I still enjoy the great outdoors. Even more now than ever thanks to OnX and my transition from 2 wheels to 4 wheels. OnX makes it so easy to create a map, then change it on the fly. Share it with friends, pinpoint whatever you want, never get lost etc. what more can I say, I love it!.Maniac1046Version: 24.27.0

Nice app!Overall this is a great app! Easy to use and it works well on an iPad. I have two issues that would be an easy fix. The iPad is mounted in landscape mode on the dash of my SxS. When I start OnX Off-road, it comes up in portrait mode (sideways) when the iPad is in landscape mode, and the iPad has to be unmounted from the dash, rotated around until the app flips to landscape mode, then remounted on the dash. Please have the app detect the mode of the iPad and start in the appropriate mode, landscape or portrait. The second issue is that when the app is in landscape mode, the menu selection and buttons disappear from the screen so you lose functionality. Please have a selectable option so people can choose to keep the menu and buttons on the screen in both landscape and portrait mode. Other than these two things, I really like the app and it works great for trail riding in my SxS. A nice feature to add would be crowdsourcing the trail info so the maps can be updated easily. There are several trails in my area that have changed and it would be nice to be able to ride the new trails and upload the data to be integrated back into the app..LorddeejVersion: 21.31.1

Bread crumb tracking near Saskatoon SaskatchewanThis is the first time I used the tracking feature (breadcrumb trail) while visiting a cousin up in Canada. We rode some trails near Dundurn Saskatchewan and they varied from gravel roads to double track grass, rutted dry dirt and some deeper sand areas. Mostly level but some hills and more challenging sections. General easy to intermediate difficulty. All dry and no slick mud or water holes. Weather was cloudy and excellent temps from 65 to 75F. Overall a great ride through beautiful farmlands with creeks and rivers in the area. Didn’t need to download an offline map because we had cellphone coverage. The app with the satellite view was easy to use and easy to plan the next road without trespassing on private property..BairenjieVersion: 24.31.1

Best use of money.I’m a big map guy and used to work in the GIS industry, so I was skeptical before I started my trial of the quality of geospatial data they have. I’m quite nit picky when it comes to paying for apps, but this the only subscription I’ve ever paid for an app for my phone. It has a huge array of helpful features, and it’s obvious from using it that the people who worked on this app truly care about making it the best experience possible for the user. I hadn’t even finished my 7 day trial yet before I decided to purchase the subscription. I haven’t used it outside of FL yet, but so far the quality of data is quite high. This app is definitely a must-have for off-roading..Bagels taste goodVersion: 23.21.1

So far so good. A few things though.So far so good. Been using this almost every weekend here in Colorado on OHV trails and it’s been great. A few things, first I wish there were more pictures of trails so that I didnt have to jump back and forth between AllTrails and OnX in order to get a good idea of trail conditions. Also, the ability to get directions to trails. When you click on directions on AllTrails it will kick you over to your mapping app and automatically input the coordinates and give you directions to trailhead. So, something like that would be sweet. Lastly, I wish it had compatibility with Car Play. It would be really nice to see OnX on my trucks screen instead of having to keep my phone out.

Good App Overall, I have some suggestionsI love the app! It works well and helps ensure you stay on the path you're hoping to stay on. I do really wish they would add a vehicle option for motorcycle in addition to dirtbike as there are many motorcycles that are street legal that can be ridden on a lot of the trails jeeps and 4x4s can be. In order to review certain trails I have to mark my Yamaha TW 200 as a 4x4. I also sometimes encounter issues saving trails as about 1/4 of them do not give the option to even save them. Overall, I am very pleased with the app as it does what it is meant to and has helped me many a time. Just some small issues that I would love to see fixed..Erinnnn3Version: 24.27.1

Amazing tools!We have been using OnX for a couple of years now. The features are simply amazing!!! The ability to import and export tracks and waypoint, as well as organize and share them is invaluable. Going on a trail ride with dozens of other people is easy Peezy with the tools provided in this app. Want to create a route that doesn’t exist? There’s a route builder for that. want to style and distinguish your waypoint and then filter on them? There’s a tool for that too… You can add your own images for sites, hide and show features as desired, and seamlessly sync across multiple devices and platforms. Features and their support staff go above and beyond. Highly recommended!.TlhorganVersion: 23.35.0

Well Done! Please don’t change a thing!I absolutely love this app! I have tried many, but always yearned for an app that was simple to use and stable. I believe you nailed it! It’s not overly complicated, very user friendly and does not crash when using it! It allows you to enjoy the adventure with minimal input. I love the discover feature… the only thing I would add would be a feature that allows you to sort the nearby trails by difficulty rating. Also, it’s a little hard to tell the difference of your trail lines; 50” vs high clearance vs dirt bike etc (would be easier if you just color coded them different bright colors) Regardless, well done onX! Very well done indeed!.DeRockit24Version: 23.21.0

Awesome Ecosystem, Bad app qualityThe maps are great and offer plenty of real-people reviews and reports to give you the most updated info on trails. I prefer to use my waypoints as a way of tracking where campsites are, what they look like, the start and end of trails, and more. However, their support for photos is awful. You can add as many as you want, but every time I add more than 3 at a time, the app crashes. Anytime I try and look at more than 3 of my images, the app crashes. Though the layout is great, and it allows me to make my waypoints very thorough, it might take me quite a few attempts in order for it so save without crashing. OnX System = Excellent. App Software = Awful..Braiden patrickVersion: 25.15.0

Fantastic Off Road and beyond Navigation ToolVery intuitive approach to on the fly on and off road navigation. Super easy to find trailheads, trip planning and quick bullet point data on the surrounding area. I will be using this tool extensively for a two month brand photography tour across the western half of the United States. Currently planning out camping permits - very easy to make notes via waypoints in back country areas inside the national forestry park system. Agency numbers, filing permits, fire roads, private lands, routing data, etc. All encompassed in a one-look graphic interface. No more chasing devices and maps - all off or online. Paired with a Garmin GPS, this is one stop shopping for all things navigation, camping, route data, contact reference. They are currently working on improved “cake and eat it too” map interface improvements re more layers, quick toggling on/off for even better quick field reference. And other wish list items. Glad I found this wonderful tool and looking forward to riding with it soon . . . Happy trails!.AndyhawesPhotographyVersion: 21.27.0

Great for trip planning!I have used and I’m well versed with onX and Gaia. onX is much better for trip planning because it has so much more information when I’m at home with internet access, planning the routes and points of interest for our events. I do wish that there was an easier way to save map data for offline access or that it would not require internet access to have it while I’m en route. If I don’t download the appropriate area or zoom down to the level of detail or end up wandering outside of the area that I planned, then I have no map data. That is my only request to onXmaps, but other than that, it’s a great product..AventuraseekerVersion: 22.35.0

Excellent customer supportI signed up with my phone and Apple ID so the subscription went through Apple and apparently an surrogate Apple email and an unknown (to me) password. When I tried to log on with the desktop, I was was not able to access my premium account and only the basic one that I had an account with previously. I reached out to their Customer Support only half expecting anyone to ever respond since that seems to be the norm nowadays (Hello GoPro🫤). A CS rep Kristen responded within an hour or so and through the course of three emails was able to address my issue by offering suggestions including actually including screenshots of the navigation to where I needed to go to access the page needed to change my log on credentials. Three days later she followed up just to make sure everything was working fine. Kristen went above and beyond to help me get my issue solved. I have always gotten great support from vendors in the outdoor industry and OnX was spot on with their responsiveness this time around for me..Jojos sisterVersion: 24.21.0

Cool idea, but glitchyApp has great features, with trail ratings and conditions, tracking, planning, etc. it’s the best features of other apps combined. Problem is it’s freezing/glitching CONSTANTLY. The iPad app is all but unusable because it freezes, requires a force close and then puts the map sometimes hundreds of miles away from where you were looking. iPhone app is more stable, but it’s an absolute struggle with CarPlay, especially with tracking. Did 3 trails in Moab last week and lost the tracking data for two of them because of the constant freezing and need to force close between CarPlay/the app. Like I said, really like the features, but the lack of reliability has gotten old. Switching to GAIA for planning, and Trails Off-road for trail data..Rockymountainhigh5Version: 24.45.2

Pay for it if you ride new areas a lot!!I downloaded this app in order to find new trails and after finding a trail system my Fiancée and I went out the next day. After getting my ATV unloaded I opened this app and hit track just to see how long and far our ride would be. I’m glad I did! After riding for about two hours and taking a lot of different turns I realized I was (just a little) lost. I pulled my phone out and thanks to the offline map save and tracking feature I was able to follow my track the whole way back to out starting point. Highly recommend this app and for only $35 a year the offline maps and tracking feature is well worth it!.DyalnDiSabVersion: 21.13.0

Confidence builderGreat tool to have when your out in the desert everything begins to look the same out there and having that bird's eye view keeps you from making wrong decisions that could leave you out of fuel in the middle of nowhere. Certainly a must have in my opinion "safety first " let's all make it home safely. If I could make a suggestion to the future development of this app I would ask if they could add a "setting " to make the print and markings larger for us over 50 off-roaders even with reading glasses on out in the sunny desert very difficult to see even on iPhone 13 . Till then I may have to upgrade to an ipad?$$$.D rexxVersion: 22.31.1

Works great, except…I’ve had this app going on my third year. While I love most everything about it, the snap to route building feature is not working correctly. It will sometimes snap to, but mostly just draws straight lines, even on paved roads. Other times it will not allow me to build the route past a certain point (even on paved roads) and/or picks a random point to drop the next pin. Being able to build an accurate route quickly is key to my ability to stay on course in the backcountry while navigating from my motorcycle. This feature alone is the reason I justify paying for this app. Please fix this asap. Three stars for now, as this is incredibly frustrating. Otherwise it’s a five star app..Desert Nomad 777Version: 24.43.1

One of the best nav AppI started using onX Offroad almost by chance, but now I can’t do without it. The ease of use, simplicity, and speed with which you can find trails are impressive. I really appreciate the attention to detail, the passion, and the continuous updates the team keeps putting into it Good job guys.BraccopintoVersion: 24.43.1

Customer serviceHad a very small issue paying from Canada. I reached out to ONx to help facilitate a discounts offer from them. Discount can’t be applied and then paid on Canadian accounts. ONx emailed back with a solution that was up and beyond what I was expecting. Fantastic customer service..Axman022Version: 24.43.0

Very impressedI have really enjoyed using the app in Canada. All the trails have been true. Just one quirk would be when I download an offline map I can no longer use it in 3D when I am offline. Other apps I have used in the past have allowed me to use 3D when offline..Colt—45Version: 24.37.1

Better than GaiaThe app is really good, adding waypoints is easy and easy and the map is 3D also. Downsides are the information isn’t fully there in Canada, or atleast in Alberta. There is tonnes of missing information about trails you can drive on, the map makes it look like there is like 6 trails in the whole province when there’s hundreds. Hopefully overtime as more people use the app and add waypoints the map will be updated and show the true extent of the trails and not just one section of it. Also the elite membership sounds good however I can’t seem to use any coupon codes that comes with the membership. Most of the partners with OnX doesn’t have any options for Canadians. You have one coupon code which gets 20% off your cart for Warn Winches which sounds amazing! Until you find out warn doesn’t ship to Canada and the suppliers in Canada do not accept the coupon code.DHood97Version: 24.27.1

GoodI believe it will get better with time. Great for finding new or abandoned trails to go explore. Strongly recommend for anyone interested in going off road. Tracking works great. Lacking trails in Quebec but I still managed to find some cool ones..GhiblipandaVersion: 24.7.0

Finally in Canada!It has taken some time for the app to become available in our store. The small temperature indicators on the map still display values in Fahrenheit instead of Celsius though. Feature requests: 1. Ability to view and manage users with access to a shared folder. 2. Integration with third-party maps, such as BRMB. 3. Option to download the entire screen or region as offline maps instead of selecting specific areas (tons of small rectangles…). 4. The capability to hide trails recorded by other users on the map and display only my own content..Usr29Version: 23.29.0

OnX Offroad: Trail Maps & GPS Negative Reviews

Used to love itI used onx off-road for almost 2 years had multiple offline maps and a couple hundred pinned locations and I used the monthly subscription which was one of the reasons I went with onx in the first place and I had no complaints up until a few months ago I noticed I couldn’t use my offline maps or create more updated the app still didn’t work well I went on with my trip in hopes I didn’t lose service and figured I’d deal with it when I got home and forgot about it a couple months goes by and I go to use it again and same thing so I reach out to customer service and they let me know they quit doing the monthly subscription so apparently they just don’t let anyone know and continue to charge them. Well the guy was doing his best to help me fix my account he said they gave me a free year which still never showed up so he told me the best thing would be to start a new account with a different email. Which I would then lose all the data I had saved which I get it I can’t count on it forever just a little shady to me to end a subscription yet still charge people. For the price of the yearly subscription I’d just go with Gaia GPS same price if not cheaper and way more features! Sorry onx.ColesgotsteezVersion: 23.23.1

Off-road? What’s even off-road here?I’m really not seeing a way to filter out all the highway registered vehicle “off-roading” roads. Pretty frustrating to say the least that I’ve paid for an app that, in theory, should be able to tell me trails on the map I can actually take my side by side on and not get in trouble. I wanted to take my 4 day weekend and venture beyond the areas I am familiar with. I’m zooming in to click on every part of a “trail” that’s broken up into half mile pieces. A complete headache and waste of my time. And scroll through all the supposed information you provide only to find most of the “trails” you show on the map are in fact roads only open to highway licensed vehicles if it even has that information listed. In spite of the fact that it also shows that the same “trail” is accessible by dirtbike, sxs, quads. I think it is incredibly deceptive to market this as an off-roading app and not give the user the ability to filter for actual off-road trails for off-road machines. Which I thought was a reasonable expectation on my part. Also, pretty expensive subscription for an app. You got this chumps change, but not again..A consumer whoVersion: 24.3.0

Lacking for Offroad useI use this app weekly for property information. But as my title says it’s lacking for Offroad use. Almost every “trail” and “trail report” that is shown within 100 miles of me is nothing but an average forest service road that you can drive your families minivan down. The frustrating part is that many of these “trail reports” pass through actual OHV areas with real trails. For example in the Yacolt Burn State Forest the L-1500, L-1200, and the L-1100 roads have reports on them. Yet none of the 4x4 or ATV trails have any information. Once again in Hood River County the routs that are marked are nothing more then forest service roads. Yet the actual Offroad trails have no information. Then there’s the “Tillamook Loop” in The Tillamook State Forest in NW Oregon. The so called Tillamook Loop consists of multiple named 4x4 trails with varying degrees of difficulty. Yet this trail report calls it a 6 out of 10. Many of these are far easier then a 6 rating and then there’s a hand full of trails that should have a rating of an 8 or above. But they’ve all been lumped in together with an average rating that doesn’t represent what you will actually be getting into. As I said at the beginning I use this app weekly for property and land ownership information. But I do not trust it when it comes to anything about trail information.

Very flawedYou are unable to delete an import of waypoints making it completely useless to me. Their support told me I would have to delete each waypoint I imported ONE BY ONE in order to not exceed their waypoint limit. I can’t import anything anymore and deleting each waypoint one by one would take over 60 hours of my time the way this is designed. What useless software and terrible support service. I cancelled my subscription immediately and hope something better comes along. UPDATE: the suggestion in the reply to this review would mass delete important markers from my personal research and is not a viable solution. I’m sorry body can fix this and that it is designed in this way. I need someone to simply delete one large import I made, not delete everything. Fix your software. Add a warning that says are you sure you want to import xxxx waypoints, it exceeds our max and it will break your account..UrbanarchaeologyVersion: 23.41.0

NahIve been (trying too) use/using this app for a little while now. Im a paid subscriber. It was working great up in smaller national forests but im currently on a trip through some pretty large forests with LOTS of trails and its been bricking the app. Freezes every 3 seconds for 5+seconds. Makes trying to locate a new trail impossible .i thought maybe downloading the map area for offline use would fix this but NAH , still does the same. Honestly i think it has to do with the “in your area” feature trying to populate all the trails, but who knows. Really frustrating when i see an area i want to check out but its rake 20 minutes of freezing/stopping/crashing and having to use competitor apps along with this slow one to ultimately use my physical map to get the same/better info. TLDR; app is buggy, freezes and ultimately provides a frustrating solution to something a printed map does..BricecakeVersion: 20.32.0

UnreliablePlanned a trip on the 7 hour plane crash trail months ago in preparation for a 2 week trip through various trails. Something happened with onx and their trail was removed, but the page for it can still be found and what not, it’s a pretty major trail. I first contacted their support on september 17th and they were able to confirm it was an issue and will be fixed. I contacted them again on October 2nd wondering what’s going on as it still isn’t fixed and they asked for more details including coordinates which i provided, as well as a rough gpx file of where the trail was. They once again said it has been sent in as an error and will be fixed. Another week goes by and still no fix. My trip is in 8 days and it’s still not fixed, I’ll never trust this app again for planning trips..EmilyBeachVersion: 24.37.1

Not sure of valueDownloaded this app to help find trails and dispersed campsites. Didn’t really help with that. Started looking at some trails I’m familiar with and it was lacking. It’s difficult to interpret the what all the dotted lines mean without going to search “Help” for the legend - not sure if I’ll have access to it when I’m off the grid. I was considering paying for the subscription, but based on the free version, the paid version better have a ton more content. Unfortunately I don’t know how much more content the paid version has and not sure I’m willing to pay to find out. App developers really should offer the premium version for 6-12mons for free while they continue to build on a potentially great app. If I knew exactly the quality of the content I was getting, I would have no problem paying for the subscription..SkimshakeyVersion: 20.18.0

Landscape orientation not really supported.I was told that the search function was not supposed to be supported while in landscape orientation. When you click the search button while in landscape mode, the app re-orient itself into portrait mode for you to enter text and then reverts back to landscape mode. Did nobody test this? Let me answer that, no. When I emailed customer service they told me that the search function was never supposed to Even be supported in landscape mode, and that it’s presence itself was a bug. Why would you support the iPad and yet get rid of an important feature in one of the two possible orientations not everybody uses this app in portrait mode, especially on an iPad. seems pretty obtuse. Wish I could get my money back for the subscription..StealtherVersion: 23.9.0

Long ways to go out canada, support cluelessI wish they would spend some of the advertising money on the system. Big disconnect between the company and customers. About a year ago they sent me a Canadian webpage and discount's to subscribe. Then told to click the iOS APP link. Then to discover Apple Canada didn’t even have a APP. Contacting support and struggling over a month to get a hold of someone that knew something. I was told to install the American IOS APP which is basically impossible for a Canadian. Requires wiping your phone and install USA iOS which requires a American address and American bank account. Now I see they finally have a Canadian app.Camshaft007bVersion: 24.27.0

10 minutesOne reviewer allowed 20 minutes. I’m done in 10. First of all, you need to create an account before you can see what it does. Then your hit with a 7 day free trial and you find out you must pay $50/year to use it. Next, you find out that $50 doesn’t give you anything when you live — or travel — in Canada. You need the “elite” version for that. And this is all in the first 5 minutes. And what a waste of 5 minutes! The next five minutes was writing out your first impressions… 🤪 Kind of a bad joke..RonaldRH49Version: 24.5.1

To high a frustration quotient for meOn the surface, this appears to be a valuable addition for anyone's navigation and planning portfolio. but try to use it and it becomes something very different. does not accept that i have subscribed and i constantly need to refresh. constantly nagging for me to upgrade to elite. turns out maps in canada need an elite subscription anyway. i usually allow an app a couple of strikes before i toast them. 3 strikes in 20mins and i'm done.J0hn-dVersion: 23.35.0
