About
iHunt is Canada's leading digital hunting companion, designed to keep hunters informed and prepared whether they're in the field or planning their next trip from a desk. Available across most Canadian provinces and territories — including Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Quebec, Saskatchewan, and Yukon — iHunt provides province-specific apps tailored to local regulations and land data. The platform combines interactive mapping with essential hunting tools. Users can overlay multiple colour-coded boundary layers, switch between satellite, topographic, hybrid, and road base maps, and even link custom TMS/WMS tile servers for added flexibility. Waypoints can be pinned with custom icons, photos, descriptions, and weather data, while the tracking feature logs routes with duration, distance, and altitude. A built-in drawing tool lets hunters measure and annotate parcels of land for future reference. Hunting season regulations are updated annually within the app, eliminating the need to carry printed guides. A sun calculator provides precise sunrise and sunset times based on GPS location, and weather forecasts are accessible directly from the map interface. iHunt Web extends the experience to desktop browsers at no cost, with full sync between web and mobile — waypoints and purchased maps carry over instantly. Landowner maps for Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba, as well as Public Lands Subscriptions for all provinces, are available as paid add-ons. iHunt is ideal for hunters of all experience levels looking for a reliable, all-in-one field companion.
