Вставка

- Watch for a step by step tutorial on how to use the onX Hunt map system when you have no cellphone service.
When hunting, you can use onX to save maps offline for hunting in areas where saving battery life is critical, as well as not having any cellphone signal to load the current maps.
This will show how onX fixes these problems in order to keep you in the field longer and safer without worrying about becoming lost.

You made the offline process easy. Thanks.
Im new to on x maps, Awsum lesson. Thanks
Thanks for the informative video. With this app and the help of your video, I am finally starting to branch out of my “tried and true” spots and beginning to explore new areas.
Ryan D that’s the only reason we put the videos out. Not because we think we’re pros at any of this stuff, just showing how we figured It out best as possible anyhow
Thank you. Appreciate your videos. Subscribed to your channel.
Thanks! Helped a ton!
Useful , thanks , resubscribing😃👊
Thanks for the video, was this the free version? Let me rephrase my question do I have to pay for subscription to download a map and use GPS on it while on airplane mode?
i beleive they do a free trial but its only 7 day free trial. But then yes, they make a single state version for maybe 20 bucks and a lower 48 state version for 100. We have been told by a lot how much that is etc, but if you do any hunting in places or any public id honestly pay 5 times that to save courthouse maps and phone calls etc.
hope this helps
Thanks just got on onxmaps your info is short and to the point! I use a Garmin 6s need to know how to move waypoints from onx to my chip not very familiar with that and Don,t want to destroy my new state map
I use a Garmin. I was able to export my waypoints, tracks, etc.. from Garmin software and then import into onX and vice versa. I have the onx chip and updated it, but honestly downloading a map as this video explains and going into airplane mode works great and its easier to use and mark on the phone that it is on the Garmin. I stopped carrying my Garmin in the field.
In this video you turned on Airplane Mode, then selected the "Off-Grid" tab, then further selected the specific map for the area you were discussing. Can you tell me whether your saved maps would have automatically appeared if you simply had lost cell service? Put another way, do you need to select "Off-Grid" mode in order to access your saved maps, or will they automatically support the map if you are hiking and using "Tracker" mode? I live in Southeast Alaska and have downloaded dozens of maps covering the areas I expect to travel over the course of the year, but finding the right "Off-Grid" saved map seems like an incredible pain, especially since many of the areas I access had to be downloaded in multiple segments. Thanks for your guidance and video.
llacubos just label the maps you can change the name. Ours are are labeled while saved so you know what to pick. Name them so you know what they are
So if you save way points or tracks off wine do they automatically sync when you take it back online?
yes sir they do. its all saved through gps the map is just an over lay
Thank you
Your welcome
Is there a way to save the map with private land vs. public land information included?
James Ward it’ll save all that for the area you searched! Even when it’s offline you still see all the borders no problem. Just make sure they’re on when you save it
In airplane mode after the save does it show you private land layers?
saves everything in the radius you downloaded, its actually pretty awesome
Love this app as well. Something I can't figure out, is there a way to share your location OFFLINE with your hunting partner? I am doing my first Colorado Elk hunt this year, and there may be times where him and I are several hundred yards away from each other, and we want to keep track of each other. Where we are hunting GPS works decent, but cell service doesn't. Thanks.
Tyler Babs negative. You’ve gotta have some sorta signal they don’t work like walkie talkies with one another they’ve gotta transmit data if you do that
if you both get your HAM license you can use APRS to see where each of you are. You would need the license, a uv5r and a burner android phone. Its really the only option to do what you are looking for without cell service.
@@pewpewkachew4735 will a gmrs license work?
How long did it take to download the one 10mile radius map? I have full service and I’m on WiFi. I waited over 30 minutes and my map didn’t download. Something must be messed up.
Umm, i would say roughly 10-15 minutes for the maps to download or so but it’s not lightening
So should I still buy a garmin gps. Or will xhunt be enough?
J Driskill RX8 we have a handheld as a third backup. We’ve never used It. we use one phone and keep the other phone safely stashed away then the handheld stashed away. Back up to the backup
Nice Vid bud New sub here
Thanks a lot
When you save the offline map and use it offline are you still able to see your live location in that saved area?
Yup 100% that’s the plus side
Do you have to put it in airplane mode with the app open or will it work the same when you lose cell signal?
Ronnie Bartnicki you go into off grid mode on the app. You just need to make sure you’ve save everything when you had service first
Awesome, thank you! So if i just saved the 10 mile range and go to that area in a few days, after i lose cell signal i can open the app and hit off grid and be good to go?
Ronnie Bartnicki correct, just make sure verify It fully saved. When you save you wanna leave the app open till its fully saved. But yes that’s all. Your pins etc all saved also
Rad thank you so much! Im debating on just using the phone app or using it on a Garmin or something. Thanks again
Ronnie Bartnicki the phone. So much better
Can you still use all the waypoint features offline?
Jonathon Hedrick yes, It will still allow pins to be dropped as long as the maps are saved
That’s great. Thanks again for your help
How does it show your position if there’s no service?
rybobuno gps the maps save based of gps also
Why can't I fly around from one location to another on my Chromebook? It does not let me go into flight. Can't move N,S,E,W just where I zoom into
Don’t understand the question at all
@@DIYHunter i can't navigate across the map. Like if I want to move across a different area it will not let me.
@@noro305 that makes no sense you just click the mouse and move i do It regularly
@@DIYHunter trust me if it was that simple I wouldn't be asking why it doesn't work. Thanks
@@noro305 don’t have a clue what your doing wrong, we run desktops iPads and phones for years have never heard of your issue
? Do you have to turn off line on it . Every time
Once you click offline It wont try to find maps and kill your battery
Awesome guys. Really needed to know how to do this for this weekend. Super jazzed. Keep it up! Subbed. Check us out too. Thanks again.
thanks a lot, not super complex but it also isnt the easiest
Caution. This has left me in the dark a few times. By the time I needed it, the offline maps Do Not load because of some bullshit bug. I got back into service 3 days later and got signal, reloaded maps and it worked. Next season the same thing happened! This is a toy for hunting private lands. If you hunt big game 10 miles from roads or civilization, get a real GPS. This toy will let you down.
Been using It forever. Not 1 issue. If the offline maps fully saved it’s saved on your phone. Ans we double up our devices as well.
Landing tiks
Be aware!!!!
It will only work for 1 year.
U have to upgrade for 99.99 for another year for every state, or 29.99 for jst your state every year.
Upgrades should be free!!!!!

I said it before I'll say it again, ANY hunt app mapping without good cell service is WORTHLESS.
Msuhunter Spartan we’ve hunted literally over 35-40 days without service out west not even with phones on. Airplane mode. Dead accurate. It doesnt even needs to use service at all to work so you’ve either not ran It without service or maybe didn’t run It correctly It works seamlessly
@@DIYHunter I've tried it, no signal no correct maps. Downloaded several maps but it's just not the same as having a good cell signal.
Paul S gotta be missing a step. We’ve literally hunted all over the country, i rarely use signal anywhere. PA, OH, and western states even Alaska. No signal, no issue ever once yet in 4 years
@@DIYHunter Sorry just don't buy, i can't even get the app to work with cell service and the downloaded offline maps don't show all the info. Glad it works for you but for me it's $30.00 wasted.
Msuhunter Spartan that’s an odd i don’t know why, we’ve been 20 miles into back country not once had a glitch
