Have any of you tried the card readers that plug into your cellphone? I am contemplating this as an alternative from carrying my bulky digital camera. The most common one I see online is the Boneview, with many imitators out there. Just curious if anyone has the Boneview or any other similar devices. I have read some reviews and it seems to work good although there are some concerns with battery life. Not saying those reviews are not enough but I trust the opinions of some of the actual "hunters" on here more than I would an amazon review. Thanks for your time and good luck in the up coming months!
 
I use the micro SD cards with the adapter and put the card in my phone download and delete later since I always hunt with my phone on me

 
I have the boneview. I'm not sure what concerns there would be on battery life since it runs off the cell phones battery. I love mine, I can save pics straight to my phone, share, delete. I sold my wildgame viewer after I got it.
 
I have a bone view also it works well for viewing but it's a little bit slow as far as the download goes

I bought a bone view . It works ok but I wish you could view full sized pics without downloading them. I wish I could just scroll thru them without having to load them. Maybe I'm missing something tho. I haven't messed with it too much

I actually feel the same way, about the scrolling, but I typically look at them while sitting in the stand, so I have time

Download the Nexus media importer, it's $2.99 I think. That allows you to scroll through pics. The free one does not allow scrolling.

I am not happy with the Boneview. Works but not well. Whoever wrote the software is not good at it.

I prefer to take my Surface Pro and it works WAY better than the Boneview.

I pulled a card today that I think had a shitload of pics on it that I never erased. I let the boneview load for 5 minutes and it still hadn't brought any pics up. That's been my only issue.
 
I bought a Transcend card reader for my Droid Turbo. I can view all my pictures and videos. Same issue with scrolling with the transcend. 7.99 from Amazon.

The scrolling issue has to do with the app you use to view the pics. The nexus app will allow you to scroll.
