I don't know if the phone apps come with the satellite imagery, but the imagery is extra for my Garmin Rhino.

Does the app still work when you're out of cell service?Yes, with the app loaded on your phone, it can still access the satellite signals without cell service. However, I suspect you many have to load satellite imagery for the area you plan to be hunting in if you won't have cell service. The imagery is not necessary for the GPS to work as the app has topo maps loaded on it, but it's real nice to have the imagery.

Will those chips work in a Garmin® eTrex® 20x ?? Guess i'm in the market for one that fits the on-x chip and the chip. Anyone has one for sale let me know
You should be able to go to the OnyxMaps website and see what GPS units the chips are compatible with. I think you can also download the chip data directly from the website to your GPS (it may be slightly cheaper than buying the chip).
If you have a smartphone, it's probably cheaper to get the app than buying a GPS unit for several hundred dollars AND the chip for at least 100 more.

I used the free trail last year for Deer season to see if it was worth the cost.

Thanks for the clarity Bob33! I didn't realize that the maps had to be downloaded in the same way that the satellite imagery does. Is there an extra cost for the satellite imagery when using the app on a smartphone?

No extra cost. ON X Hunt is by far the best GPS tool out there. The new 4.0 version had some wrinkles, but they've updated it and it worked flawlessly for me during my elk hunt. Download your content before leaving home then access those areas in "offline" mode in the field. I downloaded using the "5 mile" amount of detail and it was amazing quality. Love the tracking feature, basically same as cookie crumb feature for those "old school" garmin GPS. I tracked all day and barely touched my battery. Easy to use and very reliable.

I have both the app on my iPhone and it downloaded in my Garmin. The Garmin hasn't been out of my pack for a few years now:yeah:
