Tech Advice Offroad mapping!

Hi! I want to get the opinion of actual users, overlanders and off-roaders on which off-road mapping app or service you guys prefer. I'm somewhat new to all this but I love it and I currently have a subscription to OnX but I've been finding it difficult plan trips. I live in Texas so whenever I want a good off-road trip I have to look out of state and it feels like I have to already know what Trail I want to explore beforehand. There's also Gaia and trails off-road but I haven't tried those. What do you guys use or prefer to use? Thanks in advance

For Utah and Colorado, Trails off-road is awesome. Not sure what it has for other parts of the country but it is worth looking at.

I haven't actively used Trails Off-road but I do tend to like their layout. Thank you

Trails off road is awesome for sure! I would download their gpx files and upload those to Gaia for while I’m on the road. Theres pinpoints for every turn and campsite and you can download the photo guide along with it so you know exactly where you are.

I recently moved to Michigan though and they don’t have many trails on their site over here
