“We went looking for a particular trail in Southern California, and could not find the trailhead so downloaded this app. We proceeded to drive at least four hours in. Then the real problem came. No cell service and trails going every which way. No idea how to get back and no one around. Getting dark and cold. Another rig rolled down the cliff, laying on its side. Nobody in it. Scared the —- out of us. This app put a blue line on the map, just like we were navigating to Starbucks in town! Rookie mistake by a self proclaimed rookie, but I would highly recommend that you download this before you go exploring. Our bodies would probably still be out there being eaten by birds if I didn’t have it! 🙂 I don’t know if there are other similar options, but this one works great for me, so I’m. keeping it!”
Frequently Asked Questions
We gather our data from a variety of sources, and we’re constantly checking to make sure our source is the most accurate available in all areas. We work with our data sources to make any corrections whenever errors are discovered.

- Some counties and data sources are much better at keeping their information up-to-date and accurate than others, but we work closely with them to correct errors when our customers encounter them.

Each county formats their data differently and updates records on a different tempo. We are limited by the information the counties provide us. Typically, this is done every one-to-two years, depending on the availability of the data.
onX includes a feature called “Offline Maps“ which allows you to save maps for use outside the cell network. Your smartphone or GPS-enabled tablet has built-in GPS receiver that will display your location and allow you to use the Map Tools and Tracker like normal when outside the cell network.
