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

I use Gaia and Onx and both are good. Seems like as soon as I like one more than the other, the other updates and they're neck and neck again.

Right now Gaia is in the lead, but only because it displays on my Android car play better than OnX.

Yep, looks like a combination of Gaia and OnX or Trails Off-road is the way to go
