iHunter BC for Android

Quick overview

iHunter BC is an Android app designed for hunters and outdoorspeople who want detailed information about British Columbia's Wildlife Management Units (WMUs). The app overlays WMU boundaries onto base maps, shows your real-time position, and lets you view season dates for big game, predators, and game birds within each WMU.

Map tools and WMU details

The map interface highlights which WMU you are currently inside and offers a focused map view for individual units. Each WMU page displays season openings and closures for various species, helping you confirm legal hunting windows at your location.

Notable features

• Save and label personal waypoints to mark favored blinds, stands, or access points.
• Record past harvests and keep notes like animal details and dates for your personal log.
• Store landowner contact information so you can quickly reference permissions and access details.
• Share your live location with contacts via email or text, and message other users directly.
• Use in-app chat tools to communicate with other hunters in the area.
• Check legal light times with a built-in sunrise/sunset calculator and view the current moon phase.

Public Land Access (optional subscription)

A yearly in-app subscription ($9.99 USD) unlocks multiple public-land layers for clearer access planning. Included layers (examples shown in a different order) are:

• Parks
• Municipal boundaries
• Crown lease parcels
• No-hunting zones
• General-use Crown land
• Private property outlines
• Conservation lands

Suggested alternative

If you want another option to compare, try Star Sport — Live Sports Guide (free). It focuses on live sports content rather than hunting maps, so it’s best as a general reference app rather than a direct substitute for WMU mapping.

Final thoughts

iHunter BC is a practical field companion for exploring BC’s WMUs, planning outings, and managing location-based hunting information. The extra public-land layers and sharing options make it especially useful for coordinating trips and ensuring legal access.
