How it works

From first check to final record.

One connected workflow for every trip, every trap, and every detail worth keeping. Plan before you head out, find your way in the field, and keep every record organized, even with no signal.

The workflow

A season in four moves.

Trapline IQ follows the rhythm of a real trapline: plan at the kitchen table, head out, check every set, and come home with records that are already done.

  1. 01

    Plan the run

    Download the map packs for your territory, drop pins for every set and save the route you want to run.

  3. 03

    Check every set

    Log a visit in two taps: capture, bait refreshed, reset or closed. Add a photo and a note while it's fresh.

Does Trapline IQ really work with no cell signal?

Yes. Download the map packs for your territory before you leave, and maps, GPS, pins and logging all work fully offline. Your entries sync automatically the next time you have a connection.

Which provinces and territories are covered?

Topographic maps are available across Canada, from the Yukon to Newfoundland and Labrador, including registered trapline and UGAF zones where available.

Can I share my trapline with a partner?

You can invite trapping partners to a shared territory. Everyone sees the same sets and routes, and visits are tagged with who logged them.

How much battery does tracking use?

Route recording is tuned for long days. Most trappers finish a full run with plenty to spare, and a low-power mode stretches it further in the cold.

Can I export my records?

Yes. Export a season summary or your full visit and capture history as a spreadsheet or PDF for your own records or reporting.
