The Route Builder is available from the Tools menu in the onX Hunt App and Web Map. Use it to plan your path into an area before heading into the field. Choose Snap To to let onX Hunt snap your route to existing roads and trails, or use Point Draw to draw your path manually. Routes are saved to the My Content menu.
Note: An Elite onX Hunt Membership is required to use the Route Builder.
Building a Route
- Open the Tools menu and tap Build a Route.
With Snap To selected, drop two or more points on the map—the line will snap to the nearest road or trail.
- Tap Undo
to remove the last dropped point.
- Tap Save to save the Route to your My Content menu.
Tip: If Snap To fails to snap due to a gap in the routing graph, switch to Point Draw, drop a few points to clear the problem area, then switch back to Snap To. Repeat as needed until the gap is cleared.
Following a Route
Once your Route is saved, tap the Location button in the Hunt App to follow it.
- One tap centers the map on your current location and follows you as you move.
- A second tap shows a directional indicator and the map rotates with you as you move.
- Tap the Compass indicator to return to a North-Up orientation.
Use the blue location dot and directional indicator to make sure you're staying on course.
