NaviPad uses the built in location service to display your location in real-time on installed chart files.
NaviPad currently supports the BSB/KAP format. The files are uploaded to your device using iTunes file sharing or downloaded by using the "Chart Downloader"
Users have the possibility to publish their favorite places, see other users places and send messages to other users.
Other users of NaviPad will be displayed on the map with speed, course and location information.
To use these "social" functions an account has to be created. The account is created in NaviPad.
You can also share your favorite locations with other users by using the “Share Location” function.
The Registration form will always be displayed when the NaviPad is started and no user id is found.
Plan your routes ahead by performing a long press on the navigation screen and then draw the way you want to travel. The route taken to a place can also be saved and loaded so you can find the way back to your favorite spots again. These routes can also be downloaded in the KML format for usage in other devices or online map services.
NaviPad was created by DivDev in Sweden. Boating and programming enthusiasts!
US, Brazillian and New Zealand navigational charts are included and downloadable in the application.

You must pay for all charts
Qboards
This is not a free app. When downloaded you must pay for any chart you want to use (which I understand) but most apps at least will provide you with a sample chart. Without the sample chart you have no clue how accurate they are. From the pictures of charts in app store they look very cheap. I would stay away from this app!
free version not even trial worthy

I got the free version to try it out, with the intention of upgrading afterwards. Wants $5.00 to download a BSB raster chart that's available for free online (at least for US charts). I'm willing to pay for an upgraded app once I know the free version works well enough, but not paying for the charts. Removed from my iPad.
App doesn't work

Paid for upgrades and charts. App kept crashing. Reloaded app and won't allow to login. Just wants to charge again for charts and upgrade. Buy something else. First app I felt robbed on.

this app is a rip off. can't believe this is allowed . it does not work, download never happened. shame on you
Free app not worth the effort to download

The "Free" app is next to worthless due to the popup ads. You can't navigate from one screen to aother without being told you need to Upgrade to the full version. I would lked to at least review how the program worked to see if I could use it and would have more than paid the price. Oh well.
No maps- Just free ads

This app does not show any maps (or indeed anything else except ads). All it does is give me blank screens with ads and options to buy charts or upgrade to the "full" ad-free version. Even after that, you have to pay more since you can't use it until you buy a chart. I really wanted to check it out to see if it's worth buying, but it won't let me. Waste of time.
Rip off
