New: Africa and Down Under hunting. 56 new game species across two new categories, from Cape Buffalo and Kudu to Red Stag, Tahr and Wallaby, each with its own sightings, harvest options, subspecies and trophy scoring. Your phone's region decides which category shows first. New map tools. Redesigned Layers with the units you're in, PLACES (shooting ranges, field offices, meat processors and taxidermists), and a map library that syncs across your devices. More reliable syncing. Hunts recorded offline are protected and upload when you sign back in. Bug fixes and performance improvements.

• NEW: LiDAR. See the terrain like never before. LiDAR hill shading exposes hidden benches, saddles and terrain features that are usually lost under trees and vegetation. Tap the map pill for SHADE over your map or the full LIDAR view, and download it for the units you hunt to use with no service (with the League Pass). • Shared logs you downloaded stay downloaded when you open them from Community or a League. • Fixes for saving scouts and scores, activity duration, deleting tracks and clearing pin locations.

• NEW: LiDAR. Bare-earth terrain shading that shows every ridge, bench and drainage, plus a LiDAR-only map. Download it for the entire unit you hunt and use it with no service (with the League Pass). • Air guns are now in My Safe, with a pellet and slug catalog, compatible optics and HL Ballistics support. • Remove a waypoint's location from the map and keep the event in your Hunt Log. Deleted waypoints now stay deleted. • Fixes for two-species scout scores, deleting logs, iPad sign-in and overall stability.

• Dope not matching your hits? When your BC or velocity is off, scope tracking learns how your scope really moves and corrects every hold on your card. • Zero fast from almost any distance: shoot a group at 25, 50 or 100 yd, mark your hits on a photo of the target, and get the exact clicks for your zero range. • Switching ammo or handing your rifle to a buddy? Offsets from your locked zero keep everyone on target. • Also new: transonic warning and a personal ethical range card.

DOPE CARD YOU CAN READ AT A GLANCE. Every row is marked White: Send It, Yellow: Pushing the Limits or Red: No Go. Off a hunt, pick Deer, Elk, Moose or Copper Bullet and the chart recolors. Scroll the page up and down without the chart getting in the way. SMARTER BULLET LIBRARY. Every factory load now knows whether it is copper or lead core, and copper loads use the maker's published minimum expansion speed. MY SPOTS, REBUILT. Stands and areas are now separate: a stand is one spot like a tree stand or ground blind, and an area covers ground. HuntLeague spots the places you keep returning to from your own GPS and suggests them as areas, named by hunting unit and a nearby landmark. Tap an outline to preview it on the map in topo, satellite or hybrid. SPOT STATS AND MEDIA. Every stand and area shows its activities, sightings and success rate, with harvest and sighting photos first. Share a spot with your buddies and everyone who accepts adds to its stats and recent activity. Other hunters' photos and videos only appear from hunt logs they chose to share with you. WAYPOINTS KEEP THEIR PLACE. Editing a waypoint never erases its location, and pins that were missing a date now show when you first hunted there. MORE RELIABLE. Fixes for crashes when opening some notifications and when the connection returns an unexpected reply. ALSO NEW SINCE YOUR LAST UPDATE LOCATE GAME. When you drag a sighting into place, the shield drops exactly on the crosshair. HL BALLISTICS YOU CAN TRUST. The DOPE card, NRL stages, Apple Watch and Garmin all build from the same inputs, including edits made with no signal. A BC you entered is never overridden, and a hunt always uses its own rifle. SWAPPABLE BARRELS. Every rifle and pistol gets its factory barrel automatically. Add barrels with their own caliber, length and twist, and your chrono speeds and BC trues follow the barrel you are running. Log rounds fired and watch barrel life. FIELD LINK AND SAFETY WATCH. Field Link invites open ready to accept, pending requests have their own row, and Stop Sharing takes effect immediately. SOS updates adjust to your battery and keep retrying until they get through. HANDLOADS. Add a LOT # to each handload and get a warning before adding a likely duplicate. EXPORT YOUR PINS. Export waypoints and every pin on the map as GPX or KML, and open .gpx files from other apps, including onX, straight into HuntLeague. FIELD SAFETY ON YOUR WRIST. Apple Watch and Garmin show your BUDDIES with distance, direction and last check-in, plus a hold-to-send SOS relayed through your phone.

HL BALLISTICS YOU CAN TRUST. The DOPE card, NRL stages, Apple Watch and Garmin now all build from the same inputs, including edits you make with no signal. A BC you entered is never overridden by a library value, a saved chart is only reused when nothing about the setup has changed, and a hunt always uses its own rifle. SWAPPABLE BARRELS. Every rifle and pistol gets its factory barrel automatically. Add barrels with their own caliber, length and twist, mount the one you are running, and your chrono speeds and BC trues follow that barrel for each load. Log the rounds you fire each day and watch barrel life against an estimate for your cartridge. TRUING WORKS OFFLINE. True velocity or drag with no signal. The trued BC shows on the DOPE card, the barrel and ammo screens, and your watch. HANDLOADS. Add a LOT # to each handload, get a warning before you add a likely duplicate, and handload notes now save every time. EXPORT YOUR PINS. Export waypoints and every pin on the map as GPX or KML, all at once or one pin at a time, and open .gpx files from other apps, including onX, straight into HuntLeague. FIELD SAFETY ON YOUR WRIST. Apple Watch and Garmin show your BUDDIES with distance, direction and last check-in, plus a hold-to-send SOS relayed through your phone. The phone SOS only sends while your finger stays on the button, and tapping a buddy's SOS alert opens the map on them. Also: forms slide up above the keyboard, every comment has a visible Reply, and the antler-score filter no longer hides your waypoints. FROM LAST WEEK'S UPDATE Field Safety: Field Link connects your hunting party on the map. Invite a buddy or your whole party, or link a hunter beside you over Bluetooth. Safety Watch shares your live or last known location one way with a spouse, friend or emergency contact. The SOS screen explains exactly what happens, texts your contacts from your own phone, and has a CALL 911 button. Satellite mode: on a T-Mobile T-Satellite or Rogers Satellite link the app sends only what matters, so location updates, invites and SOS still get through.

FIELD SAFETY. Location Sharing on the map now opens a full Field Safety page. Field Link connects your hunting party: send an invite to a buddy or your whole party, or link a hunter beside you over Bluetooth, and once they accept you see each other on the map for the rest of the hunt. Safety Watch is one way: add buddies from the app or send a text link to a spouse, friend, or emergency contact, and they can pull up your live or last known location any time. The SOS screen explains exactly what happens before you hold the button, opens a prefilled text to your contacts from your own phone, and has a CALL 911 button. Buddies on the map appear as their profile shield with username and the time of their last fix; tap one for distance and a GO TO route. Satellite mode. On a T-Mobile T-Satellite or Rogers Satellite link the app sends only what matters, so location updates, invites, and SOS still get through. Your logs, straight from the server. Signing in now loads your hunts, scouts, waypoints and shooting logs record by record instead of restoring an old phone backup over your data, and photo waypoints keep their photos after a reinstall. Clips can be trimmed at both ends, posts sort by when you shared them, and a map crash when downloaded topo units load is fixed. Conversations in the community. Reply to a comment and the person you answered gets notified, so a comment thread can actually become a conversation instead of a list. Replies sit under the comment they answer and show who they are replying to. Your post, your call. Turn comments off on any of your posts and the comment button disappears for everyone. Turn them back on and the conversation returns exactly as it was — nothing is deleted. Photos and clips. Share up to three photos or short clips on a community post. BUDDY BEACON. See your hunting party on the map during a hunt, with an SOS control if something goes wrong. HL Ballistics on your watch now reaches 1200 yards, and the holds never truncate.

Draw Insights. Open a hunting unit's DRAW ODDS tab for a plain-language summary of what it took to draw that unit in the latest draw and what changed from the year before: tag counts, points, and new or retired hunt codes. Unit Insights are now part of League Pass, alongside Draw Odds. Garmin HL Ballistics: wind holds on your watch now match your phone's DOPE card at any elevation, wind direction moves in half-hour steps like the phone, and a density altitude typed on the DOPE card at the range reaches the watch. HuntLeague for Garmin now also runs on Forerunner 170, 265 and 570, vívoactive, Venu and Approach watches. Also League Pass fixes. Sightline. Tap the compass button on the map and the map turns to face your heading, with a compass tape across the top and range arcs laid out across your field of view. Type a rangefinder distance, turn toward the animal, and MARK drops a waypoint right there. Locate Animal now opens in Sightline, so a sighting is placed by distance and heading with your animal icon riding the line. Garmin: HuntLeague is now approved on the Connect IQ store, and this update fixes pairing from Settings → GARMIN WATCH. Also: a steadier compass heading, and markers no longer pile up when placing an animal on the map. Route Plan. Tap a waypoint, choose GO TO, and HuntLeague plans the whole trip: the drive to where the road ends, then the hike from there along mapped trails, timed on real terrain. Send the drive to Apple Maps or Google Maps and the app brings you back at your drop-off. Know a better trailhead? Move the drop-off yourself. Handloads. The Safe now takes your own loads: pick the bullet, powder, case and primer, enter your velocity, and the HuntLeague ballistic engine solves for that load exactly as it does for factory ammo — on the phone and on your watch. Apple Watch: the ballistics card now works like a range card should. Drag up or down anywhere on it for distance, drag left or right for wind speed, tap the clock to set wind direction, and read your elevation and wind hold. The whole rifle profile scrolls across the bottom so you know which load the card is for. Blood trails: press BLOOD at each find as you walk the trail on the map, then DONE to log the whole trail. Every event from the wrist now waits for a fresh GPS fix before it logs. Garmin: HuntLeague is now on Connect IQ watches too (fēnix, epix, Forerunner and more). Pair it from Settings → GARMIN WATCH. Also a cleaner distance readout and fixes.

HuntLeague now runs on your Apple Watch. Start a hunt on your phone and log sightings, shots, and harvests from your wrist — no digging the phone out of your pack. The watch keeps logging when it is out of range of the phone and hands everything over once you are back together. Your DOPE card is on the wrist too. Spin the crown to your range and read the elevation and wind hold, with or without an active hunt. DOPE now solves for the air you are actually standing in. The phone and the watch both read the barometer and work from density altitude instead of sea level, so your holds match the mountain you are on. Privacy: videos you attach to a hunt no longer carry the GPS coordinates they were recorded at. Also fixed: the INSIGHTS card on the map scrolls the way you would expect, and a fresh install no longer stalls on its first sync.

Your hunt timer now tracks real time in the field. Hunt a morning and an evening sit and the duration adds up correctly, and the pause button works as intended. Recorded tracks are listed one row per segment, and the line draws as you walk instead of snapping to your last saved point. Start a track on the map or the hunt dashboard and finish it on either one. Sync reliability: one failed upload can no longer stall everything queued behind it, so your field data reaches your account. A hunt now asks for a method of take before it starts.

NEW — Unit Insights on the map: double-tap any hunt unit for harvest stats, hunter density and public-land access across 23 states (League Pass), blended with your own hunt history. Also: redesigned pop-ups app-wide, wind-corrected ballistic solutions, plus stability fixes.

My Units — your personal scouting reports (League Pass) Every Game Management Unit you've hunted is now its own scouting report: sighting and harvest rates, your best months and times of day, species seen and harvested, typical conditions, and a unit score. Tap a unit for an interactive map of the boundary with your own waypoints, tracks, and harvests plotted inside it.

What's New in 3.49.5 This update sharpens the long-range tools and fixes up NRL Hunter and Clay Pigeons. Ballistics & DOPE card • More accurate firing solutions — the on-device solver is dialed in to match your cloud and web portal DOPE. • The WIND column now reflects the exact wind you enter (speed + clock direction) instead of a fixed assumption — and reads zero when there's no wind. • Spin drift is now included in the horizontal hold, so your wind number is complete downrange (not just pure wind). • New Time of Flight (TOF) column, with a smooth side-scrolling table so every column stays readable.
