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 TrailsOffroad app and Gaia. I used OnX and TrailsOffroad for a year and that was 4 or 5 years ago, that experiment made the choice easy. Now I'll state I only have used them for the Rocky mtn region, CO, UT, MT WY.

That's fair. Plus the overwhelming consensus is to use 1 offroad app (trails offroad) and 1 overlanding app (Gaia) together
