OnX Hunt Updates
« on: August 15, 2018, 04:57:03 PM »
Anyone used the app since the latest update? I’m looking for information on the offline maps, the map file size has decreased significantly and I want to be sure I am getting the correct content?

Thanks,

Al

I'm not sure I understand your question...   What makes you think it may not be correct? 

Easy way to check is to download the map, close the program and/or restart your phone and put it immediately in airplane mode, and see if your map is there. 

I've been using the app since the update but haven't tried downloading / using offline.

A few updates back they changed the size of the area that each map block represents, so it may be that.

I think we are talking about the phone app, it gets updated like most apps these days.

Maybe I’m just behind on the updates and it’s because the blocks are smaller. They went from 300MBs to 100MBs in size with the same layers but everything does seem to be there.

I’d like to see them have a better option for downloading more area than clicking through to get each block.

Thanks all.

I wish we could pick and choose layers to download when doing high or medium resolution, and I want the grids back when selecting sections to download!
