Decent

This app is pretty good. The merging of all the apps that the developer is doing might be confusing to past users, but has not effected the quality of the app itself.

No more US Govt NOAA chart viewing!!!

24K2

Taking away the ability to view/use the Govt NOAA charts is the last straw example of this company’s greed. Many of us use those charts for planning but only buy your subscription Charts for areas we will actually sail in. In my case I buy the Caribbean chart subscription, but still want to look at several US locations so I use the Govt NOAA charts for that. It also looks like your Caribbean Charts subscription has increased from about $8 to $28 per year. That also seems greedy and price gouging, at the very least for us customers who have been loyal and supported Navionics for years. If you don’t decide to give us those Govt NOAA map viewing and reasonable subscription fees back, then its time for many of us to find a new Chart app !!

Keep taking our money

Funny how the “discontinued app“ still has the ability to take our subscription money, but no features work.

No data transfer to new phone. No reply from company

Used this app for years. Last phone change the maps did not transfer. Now I have to repurchase them at 5 times the original price! I contacted customer service and received no reply. That’s two very significant shortcomings.

What’s going on?

App has been unusable since last Thursday. Just received an email ref my tech support case that app had been restored and sonar chart infor was useable again. Deleted and reloaded app hit update makes and approx 415 mb of updates was available. Hit the button, screen blanked for a second and nothing happened. Knew something was wrong. Tried update feature again and nothing. Base map still corrupted, no sonar chart contours. 3 years of local data lost. Don’t know why my sonar chart data has to reside on their server. I download charts for offline use. Totally disappointed. If not fixed in 48 hours dumping this app and going to Garmin. Have over a hundred friends in my fishing association. Many of them use this app.

Forcing me to pay again

a dude that sails

Does anyone know of any other good boat navigation apps? Perhaps someone post ideas after me since I’m sure there are others such as myself and my friends that are looking for alternatives. I purchased the US and Canada version for a flat rate a couple years back and now I’m being asked to pay an annual subscription to have the same features. There must be something better out there.

Enjoy App

Working good now

Horrific Support

I had a simple question about a problem with the App and have been waiting for over one week for a response. I have reached out multiple times and they either don't care or don't have a clue. Either way is all bad. Don't buy!!

GPS only works on land

I used to love navionics but with the new version that they moved to the gps doesn’t seem to work on my iPad. It will only show my location on land, or place me on the nearest land if I’m in the water. This doesn’t make the app useful at all. Glad I kept the previous version on my phone, at least for however long it will keep working. I bought the iPad specifically to use navionics and its a real letdown that its not working. I can’t recommend until they fix this.

Not good

I used iNavX for years and loved it. I guess it has been purchased and is no longer available. So they direct you this chart plotter and it is terrible compared to the old iNaxX. In so many ways. E.G. Creating a route is very difficult and almost useless. I don’t understand why or how this occurred but I want my old chart plotting app back. What a waste.
