Works with GPSMAP 741 to display but not control. With my older tablet it goes full screen when you rotate the tablet. With my newer phone it doesn't, which makes it less useful because it's tiny.

Garmin replaced a full-featured 5* app with this. No one needs the social-networking aspect of this app. Why can't we just connect to our chartplotters with 2 button presses and have them display fullscreen? Now there's significant setup involved for each unit, and worst of all, they do not show in full screen, but rather in some janky windowed mode, and for what reason?
