aug 2017..... I am getting a notice that I can upgrade to Pro by paying again. I purchased the Property version a while back and something happened. It ran fine on my table then it wouldn't work. Worked fine on my Nexus 6 but I lost the upgrade version i purchased. My emails to support we're not answered. Now you are asking for me to purchase it again.......Just give me what I paid for and I'll be happy....... . I had been a paid subscriber of the old version and loved it and support was great and prompt. After the name chance the new app dosent recognize that I am a registered user and the app won't run at all on my tablet. Request for support have gone unanswered!!! Dont spend your $$$$ on this app.

I actually navigate using the app. It's great for using in the dingy when setting crab pots. I like to set them at 40, to 50 feet. Follow the depth soundings, better than using the sonar. Very good resolution at multiple zoom levels. Not quite as good as my Nobel Tech or my C-Map NT Superwide +, but then it didn't cost over $5k either.

This is a great app but i purchased it twice for 2 cellphone. I am wondering, do I need to pay again to use the app on my tablet? I have emailed the support twice but still no response. Pls assist.

App is based on old contour maps and is not as accurate compared to Navionics. Also app should be labeled as a trial version and not free. App locks most features after a week and spams you to upgrade. Upgrades start at $20 and go up from there. Do yourself a favor and spend the extra money on a better app.

I had previously rated 5-stars and had several friends download/buy. Recently, support has declined and forced to re-purchase maps, or deal with continual annoying messages. Shame! Map updates should be provided, annoying message at entry only and support needs to be responsive.

I use it for Greece. In general it is a good app but I am only going to comment on the bad things that I didn't like. 1) sea depth at many points is inaccurate. For example it was 4-5 meters and the app showed 10-15. 2) you can't calculate a distance between more than two points easily (I think you have to make a new route). I would like to be able to add more points and calculate distance on the fly just by tapping the screen. 3) there is no night mode, with different colors and contrast.

Charts east of Helsinki did not exist in the pro version. Despite numerous emails, there was no support from their support email. Thus I do not recommend this product. Buy the competitor. I purchased Navionics and it worked ok.

I originally have this a 1 star, because the wrong quadrant downloaded. The developer was great to work with so I was able to get the map I needed. I'm a scuba diver and my marine GPS finally took a dive, on the way to the reef. This map is most like the GIS maps used in commercial navigation. Depths and structures change all the time in water, tides ebb and flow, so I'm confused by other reviewers complaing about depth. The map and app appears to be a great guide for some great scuba diving off the coast of Tampa Bay, FL. I'll be using this for my local area and throughout Florida.

The batimetric around Elba island (Italy, Tuscany) are pretty much unusable: spot soundings are totally wrong, rocks are missing, underwater dangerous rocks too, 5 meters depth area is wrong by half a mile.

O70%
by O####:

excellent but should be $no more than $15.00 so everyone can buy plus you cant use continuously becouse battery life on mobiles so little drains battery i

This app has no depth charts for the lakes I fish. I asked for a refund and they refuse to communicate. Absolutely a terrible purchase.

Downgraded from 5 stars. It is a great app but now it's past it's trial period it is stuck on 'auto-follow' and won't let you close it without paying or forcing the app to stop!

Great app. Had an issue with using multiple devices, but their customer support solved it immediately... At 11 o'clock at night! Great service

Honestly it was exactly what I needed for INLAND lake nav (Gaston) but I can't tell from the free version if 5 other lakes I frequent are also on it (NC lakes: Jordan,Harris, Bowdin, Norman). If I could confirm they are, I would buy full app.

I boating is a tremendous app and I use it all over the Key Largo FL waterways. The customer service is great. Recently switched phones and the app was not working. They emailed with me to get it set up my new phone. Great service and great app! Would highly recommend.

I was ripped off! When I bought this App: 1) There was no depth data for 2 of the 3 biggest lakes in Huntsville ON - Lake Vernon and Fairy Lake. 2) As such, I uninstalled this software and requested a credit 2 hours after installing it. - They are refusing to provide me with a credit and have stopped responding to my e-mails... I purchased Navionics HD and it has all of the detail I need and more....

Purchased a pro-map for almost 30$ but can't use it - does not show on the app. Just the free map without any details is available. And no support ... total rip-off

App cost to much just to use GPS. Should be $4.99 for the average weekend boater. To many other apps for free that are similar.
