The first 250 hunters get Pro free for life. Read your trail cam photos, pattern every buck, hunt live with your crew, and make videos.
Every buck's on borrowed time.
Borrowed Tine is a scouting tool and a video maker for deer hunters. Load your trail cam photos from any camera brand, keep a profile on every buck, see what his own history says about when and where he moves, and turn the season into videos worth posting.
SCOUT
• Trail cam photos and clips from any brand. The app reads the date, time, temperature and camera name off the stamp, and you confirm it.
• A profile for every buck: photos by season, age and score estimates, and what his data says.
• Patterns from his own history: wind, time of day, pressure and moon, with quiet days counted.
MAP
• Your cameras, stands and sign on a satellite map.
• A 24-hour forecast strip, and a Good or Bad rating on every stand for the hour you pick.
• Each buck's movement, with the way he came in and the way he left.
• Hot and cold scrapes, likely bedding spots, heat maps, and Best sits: the week's forecast lined up against each hit list buck's pattern.
• LiDAR bare ground, steepness, slope direction, topo, infrared, elevation lines and public land, in every state.
• Property lines from county records, with a parcel's owner and acres a tap away (Pro + Lines).
HUNT
• Start a hunt and your crew sees that you're in the stand. Call the shot. Call him down.
• Count what you saw: does, bucks, behavior, and which calls got a response.
YOUR CREW
• Private crews for family, buddies and hunting clubs.
• Direct messages: one-on-one with any hunter, with Requests for people you don't know yet.
• Shared maps and bucks, seen by your crew and nobody else.
• A stand schedule: reserve a stand, or run a full club with seniority rules.
• Buck and shed competitions with friends, just for fun: no money, no prizes.
CREATE
• Buck Story, Hunt Recap, Season Edit and Harvest Drop: pick a buck or a hunt and get a finished vertical video, cut for you.
• Quick Post for any clip or photo.
• Trim, reorder, voiceover, captions and music.
• Post it to the community feed, send it to your crew, or share it to your social apps.
THE GUIDE
• An AI hunting advisor that reads your own season and the forecast. Ask it where to sit and why. Off until you turn it on. 3 questions a month free; the full Guide (75 a month) is All Access.
• Describe from photos (All Access): pick up to four shots of a buck and get a write-up of his rack and body.
YOUR SPOTS STAY YOURS
• Private by default. You choose who sees each post: just you, your crew, or the public.
• Anything public goes out clean: no GPS or photo data in the file, the trail cam stamp cropped off, location at state level only.
• A living buck's dates, times, weather and camera names stay off a video unless you switch each one on.
• Followers can see that you're hunting, never where.
• Location only while the app is open, never in the background.
• No ads. No tracking. Your data and your hunting spots are never sold.
BUILT BY HUNTERS, FOR HUNTERS
Harvest posts and hunting content are welcome here, not hidden or limited. Everyone signs the Borrowed Tine Code: build each other up, fair chase and the law, respect everyone's spot, pass it on. Harassing hunters means immediate removal. Report, hide or block anything.
Patterns, bedding spots, Best sits and score estimates are suggestions from your own history, not predictions. Property lines are approximate. Follow your state's laws and get the landowner's permission.
FREE AND PAID PLANS
Free to download and use, with limits. Pro is a one-time Pro for Life purchase while it lasts, then a yearly subscription. Pro + Lines and All Access are optional subscriptions, billed yearly, with a free trial for new subscribers. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage them in Settings → your name → Subscriptions.

• Fixed: a crewmate's buck could be copied into your other crews. Each buck now stays in the crew he was shared with.
• Fixed: tapping Edit on a hunt could freeze or close the app.
• Hunt public land: start or log a hunt without a property. Your crew hears "Hunting public land", never where.
• Deer movement forecast on the map: today's score free, the whole week with Pro.
• Offline maps (Pro): save a property's photo, LiDAR, topo and lines for no-signal ground.
• Scent cones from your stands and from where you're standing, on the forecast wind.
• Set which way each camera faces, and get help filling in which way a buck came from and left.
• A smaller map top bar, a Find me button and pinch-zoom on clips.
• Tapping an alert opens the hunt, post or message it's about.
• See a crewmate's hunts on their profile, and pick a crew's bucks on the Bucks tab.
• Help chat in Profile, and a clear ask before notifications.
• Six new songs for your videos.
