Downloading Offline Maps

To download offline maps for onX, start by opening the onX app and logging in with your account credentials. Navigate to the settings menu by tapping on the three horizontal lines or the gear icon in the top right corner of the screen. From the settings menu, select “Offline Maps” and choose the specific map area you want to download. onX will display a list of available maps in your area, with options to download the entire state or select specific counties.

Customizing Your Download

You can customize your download by selecting specific layers, such as public land boundaries, topographic maps, or aerial imagery. This allows you to tailor your offline maps to your specific needs and preferences. For example, if you’re hunting in a particular state, you may want to download the public land boundaries layer to help you identify areas with access restrictions. onX allows you to download up to 20 different layers, giving you a high degree of flexibility in customizing your offline maps.

Managing Your Offline Maps

Once you’ve downloaded your offline maps, you can manage them by going back to the settings menu and selecting “Offline Maps.” From here, you can view the list of downloaded maps, delete any unnecessary maps, and even sync your offline maps with other devices. onX also allows you to create custom maps by combining multiple layers and saving them as a single map file. This feature is particularly useful for hunters who want to create customized maps for specific areas or species.
