Ratings and reviews

Premium chartplotter with the crappiest app ever. I can't sync with the plotter. Even though I'm connected to the plotter's hotspot, app can't find the device and asks me to retry wifi connection. Retry what, wifi is connected. iPad apps works find but android is a joke. And there is no support number either in the app or b&g website. I can't even submit support question in the app; I get submit error.

I have a full B&G setup on my boat including a Vulcan9, two Triton2 displays, and a lot of NMEA2k sensors. I was hoping this would augment the system well. Instead it is full of bugs. On both my phone and iPad, I fail to see wind data even though color legends show up, no indicators show up on the maps. There is an "explore nearby" section that eternally stays in a loading (flashing) mode regardless of internet strength. What it does do is allows a screen mirroring of my Vulcan.

I was happy with it at first, however in order to sign into the app you must have an internet connection. Once signed in the connection is no longer needed. I had to reboot and then needed internet to get back in. Unacceptable if I depend on it. The good news. The chart download is very flexible and the charts are clear and can be zoomed in as much as you want. It offered contour lines as an option which made depths very clear. Routes are easy. Create a start & finish the app does the rest.
