v26.26.1

used this for almost two years for our local crags to identify the grade of the routes. to continue using it now costs 100 dollars a year. I would've given this app 5 stars until now. very disappointed, this makes climbing much more difficult in our area. but for a 100 bucks a year I'll wing it from here on out

Developer Response

If your primary use is route information and core Backcountry features, our Premium membership is available for $29.99/yr and may be a better fit than Elite. If you have any questions about the differences between membership options, please reach out to us at help@onxmaps.com. We're here to help!

$99/year when alltrails is a third of that and easier to use is a choice I guess.

Developer Response

Hey Jane, thanks for reaching out to us here with your feedback. Our Elite membership is $99, which includes private property details for the entire country. If you're looking for only trail data our Premium plan will be the best for you at $29.99/yr. If you have any questions please reach out to support at help@onxmaps.com!
