🤔 I’m curious to see responses here. I use OnX, and love it, but never used Trails off-road.

I have all 3. Use Gaia the least. The ratings between OnX and Trails Offroad are definitely different at times. As mentioned - for charting a route or planning an adventure, OnX is probably better. For finding a review and walk thru of a well used trail, and having the concierge walk you thru it, definitely Trails Offroad. Personally, having both OnX and T.O. are worth it to me. I'll use both often - one on my phone and one on my dash mounted iPad.

I think a lot of this may depend on where you are located, and what type of trails you are looking for.

Never used Trails, but have spent plenty of time in Gaia and OnX. Still have both. Seems these days OnX gets used more for our purposes but I think that's mainly due to it being a bit nicer looking on our head unit than anything else.

I use both onX and Trails Off-Road and agree with the first review about trails having better trail descriptions and coverage but fewer trails, and OnX having more coverage but less consistency.

I also use OnX through my Android Auto screen, which is a plus when using other mapping programs on my phone, specifically Maps or Trails.

One feature I use regularly with OnX is the property ownership data which can be valuable for knowing your property boundaries are and whether land is likely to be off limits.

Trails has Badge of Honor Trails mapped out thoroughly as well, which is a plus when planning those on my quest to collect BoH badges.

Both carry nontrivial subscription costs, so I look at this each year to decide if it is worth it to renew. So far, I'm holding on to both.

I was exclusively using onX in the sport because I wanted android auto support. In the Mojave i want the gages page up so I keep onX on the tablet. I have tried trails off road but in Florida I don't see a real difference. Anyone using both in Florida that has an opinion on onx over trails off road?

I use ONX and am a fan. I have Gaia and don’t really care for it. I haven’t used Trails…

I have both , found TrailsOffroad a bit easier to use and save an entire state worth of trails.
