New App Version
I use this app almost everyday for work and hunting. This app went from being 5 start to unusable. The latest version that got released a few months agois so terrible and unreliable that I will be suspending my subscription and switching to OnX.
Intrusive Upgrade Option
I’ve always loved the app but lately the super intrusive pop up to upgrade the app is really ridiculous. There’s no way to say no permanently, so it just keeps popping up over and over in the app. Great way to push me right to OnX
Very glitchy
When it works right, it’s great, but it’s getting to be few and far between times when it works right. I will not be renewing my subscription.
Having problems
Inaccurate wind direction, different wind direction displayed on different devices for the same area and the app isn't recognizing the current time.
Disappointed
This is a pretty good app probably good if you use it enough to pay the yearly fee. I don’t need all of the advanced mapping just would like to keep the locations of a few stands. I’ve used the app a couple of years and liked it but now they have made it to where every 30 seconds a banner pops up to upgrade to advanced mapping which makes it impossible to use so I probably will delete the app and not use it any more. Useless to me now.
Good but very buggy
I have used HuntStand for several years. I have overall enjoyed the app but be warned: it is very buggy. I am very tech savvy and know my way around interfaces. This year (2025), the wind app didn’t work at all…the entire season, which was annoying. If you Google this, it is a well-known problem. The line tool never was accurate this year. I had to reset the app frequently. I wrote to customer service twice complaining about issues. They responded to initial email acknowledging issues but the issues persisted. I haven’t heard back from my second email. I have downloaded OnX and will decide whether or not to keep HuntStand but bottom line: it was good but has gone down hill FAST.
Just gets worse
Every update the app just gets worse and worse. I used to love this app. 2-3 years ago it was perfect. Every update since then has made the maps worse, the timezones don’t line up with where I’m physically at, tools get harder to use, etc…
HuntStand is a total scam, it does not work, and no one is doing anything to fix it
This app has not worked correctly in over a year. It started with the major update that changed the whole app. I am making it my personal mission to get a refund for the hundreds if not a thousand complaints for over a year that have not been addressed for anyone. This is a total ripoff. Everyone file a complaint with Apple and stop this scam in its tracks. There is no way this company can say that they are not aware of the disfunction of this application. Sending a form reply to contact customer service is laughable. All 12 members of my club have all filed a complaint with Apple for refunds and dishonest representation of services provided. I always wonder why people can’t leave something that works alone and ruin it with change. Oh wait it’s called money. Shane on this company for putting numbers ahead of people.
Wind direction incorrect
I’ve used this app for years to check wind direction primarily. This season the wind direction feature stopped working consistently. Deleting the app unfortunately.
Hosed
This used to work now the time and everything else wrong always can’t trust it
Disappointed
⭐️⭐️⭐️ (3-Star Review I’ve been a loyal HuntStand user for several years and relied on this app heavily during hunting season. Unfortunately, over the past year the experience has gone downhill enough that I ultimately canceled my paid subscription. After turning off auto-renew, I immediately lost access to features I had already paid for, even though my subscription period had not expired. That should never happen — access should remain active through the full term that was purchased. Previously, when I upgraded my plan, HuntStand’s system failed to properly merge the subscriptions and instead left two active plans, resulting in duplicate billing. This wasn’t caught automatically and required customer service involvement. Beyond billing and account issues, the app itself has become increasingly profit-driven. Features that longtime users relied on are now paywalled, and frequent updates have introduced instability. I personally experienced loss of saved boundaries and data, which is a serious problem when you’re managing hunting property and relying on accurate maps in the field. What finally pushed me to cancel was customer support. I submitted a detailed complaint and did not receive a response for two months — long after the issue mattered. HuntStand still has one of the best concepts and map layers available, which is why this is disappointing. With better account management, data stability, and timely support, this app could be great again. Right now, it’s not living up to what longtime users expect.
Wind direction issues
The wind direction function within the app intermittently loads the wrong wind data. I am checking the wind direction from multiple weather apps and the wind direction in the weather section of the app and 1/2 the time it is correct and 1/2 the time it is completely wrong. The app also fails to show the full 24 hour wind directions at times.
USED to be good
This app used to be nearly perfect. But since it changed format it’s just aggravating: 1. Constantly getting interrupted trying to get me to upgrade. Annoying!!!😡 2. If I touch ANYWHERE REMOTELY CLOSE to the + marker button, then you have to deal with that. 3. Periodically get black screen for maps. My hunt club has shared mapping, so I have to use this app. If that wasn’t the case, I’d delete it.
Unacceptable
I have been using this app for a long time it’s 2025 and I have the pro subscription, but it doesn’t work I can’t even see the property map anymore, thank you for your time.
Glitches
This app was great for years. But now, it glitches, my location doesn’t show up, map items don’t save, etc. When I don’t have great service, adding icons is almost impossible, and they don’t appear after saved. This will be my last year paying for the app. I do not plan to renew once this membership expires.
