Nautical Charts & Maps for Negative User Reviews

Missing MapsI thought with the high ratings the would be an excellent app. After paying the 8.99 I am not happy one bit. It’s missing one major map that I need. Tennessee. We have tons of lakes here and none are covered.Version: 1.1.9

Does not workI loaded this app and cannot get it to work. Every time I try and open it, it crashes. Waste of money..Version: 1.0.8

Doesn’t cover lakes and inland areasWas hopeful this would cover lakes and inland areas but it doesn’t. Additionally the user interface could use some work. Not super User friendly..Version: 1.1.9

Great maps. Needs to be able to mark location and track routes.Love the maps and the offline mode. But lacks ability to drop a pin or record my route..Version: 1.1.9

Just mapsNo location info or ability to save a location. Should have researched it better before buying. Waste of 9 bucks.Version: 1.1.4

CautionAfter purchasing the app I was notified that the app isn’t working properly, with no timeline for a fix. That was two weeks ago and still nothing. When I tried to contact the company, I heard nothing back! I guess I’m not surprising though, they did take my money for a product they can’t deliver!.Version: 1.5

Complete WasteI researched numerous different apps and most had expensive subscriptions. This one was a cheaper one time fee of $9. That enticed me and I went for it. After downloading the app and the charts where I fish (St. Lawrence River, one of the bigger rivers in the US) I basically got a Google Map knock off with hardly any charts. Downloaded it for charts and there’s hardly any depth charts. I’m a tech savvy 29 year old and I’ve spent a half hour on this app and it hasn’t gotten better. I don’t feel like I’m missing anything, it’s just not good. But hey, it could be me. And if it is I’m truly sorry for leaving a crappy review.Version: 1.5

Not impressedThe map should zoom in to current location , it doesn’t. The overlay disappears if zoomed in too far. You have to manually adjust map when underway or the position indicator goes off the screen. Map DOES NOT reorient to course changes, which makes this app unusable while underway. Very disappointed.Version: 1.1.9

App crashes on downloadUnable to download maps. Apps terminates immediately..Version: 1.1.12

No Colorado mapsWas looking for a app that could chart depth for ice fishing. Useless unless you are in the few covered areas. Waste of money sadly..Version: 1.1.10

It’s good but…It’s good but for some reason you can’t download most maps They have a very small selection for offline use NOAA has them all for free I was just trying to find something to display but this isn’t it Anyways if in service it does seem like it uses raster well.Version: 1.1.12

Too slow to be usefulAs I pan around, it’s taking my iPad Pro a really long time to render a particular screen. This slow tile-by-tile rendering of the image repeats every time I zoom or move around on the map. It’s so painful as to render the app unbearable. I tried downloading all of the maps, too (which, as an aside, was a very frustrating exercise ... you should be able to just tap on maps in the list to start the downloads and let them progress concurrently ... the three modals per download meant that I had to sit down in front of the iPad for ~20 minutes to download all of the maps) and that didn’t solve it. This app has plenty of data available, but it’s unwieldy. - - - In the developer response, he says “after downloading the maps, the tiles load instantly.” But downloading multiple maps is a clumsy affair. This should be streamlined, getting rid of all of those modal dialog/alert boxes. So thank you for taking the time to respond, but I’d suggest you revisit this downloading process. It’s really quite cumbersome (esp if you want to download multiple maps)..Version: 1.1.10

Useless and inadequateNot a single point of reference or reef location as with other apps. This gives little to no information. Request full refund and high don’t recommend this app for off shore fishing..Version: 1.1.4

No Canadian chartsI bought this expecting there would be Canadian charts around Vancouver island but there is not..Version: 1.1.5

No maps???I am trying to use it as a nautical chart but it looks more like Apple Maps. Is it because I am abroad? It didn’t exclude anything when I was looking at the app presentation. I think I am doing something wrong and I will change my rating when I figure it out or get assistance. Otherwise I will have to ask for a refund.Version: 1.5

Charts are updated and good. Needs measurement toolNeed a measurement tool for measuring distance between waypoints. Also need the ability to store waypoints. Charts are great but pretty useless if you cannot log waypoints and measure distance between them.Version: 1.1.4

App crashes upon openingFresh download, crashes before it fully launches. Deleted and redone loaded. Same issue. iPhone XS Very disappointed.Version: 1.1.5

DisappointingSo I have a paper chart on my phone, I believe that these are open source charts, so anyone can download them and share them. My problem with the app, isn’t about the money, it’s the fact that you cannot navigate using this app, the interface between the charts and true gps data is very inaccurate, sometimes off by over a half a mile. That makes it dangerous at best. And you can’t really navigate from a digital chart either, because you can’t lay a compass over your phone, so ,,, hmmm, it really needs work. The overland mapping by Gaia is spot on, even in the mountains, to within +- 10 yards, maybe even better..Version: 1.1.4

Couldn’t download any other chartsI couldn’t get it to work on my two year old I pad. Does okay in my location, but other charts wouldn’t download..Version: 1.1.4

Not worth itThe first app I’ve ever downloaded where I was charged more than list price. Add to that the fact that the charts are incomplete and you have a waste of time and money. Look elsewhere.Version: 1.1.11

UnpolishedVery poor load times, sections of the maps will flicker in and out chart mode into what looks like Google maps. Regret paying money for the maps..Version: 1.1.12

Terrible for boats under 10ft draft, great for big boatsThe maps are wonderful where they work the problem is that there isn’t really any coverage under about 10ft of depth so if you are in a river with sand bars or even a local lake that’s 200ft deep but has some 5ft areas, there’s zero coverage at all. Requested a refund after finding out that some places that are well covered by other apps are 100% missing from this one..Version: 1.1.9
