Ratings and reviews

Haven't been on the water yet but I have played with the pro version app on the phone and PC (I will be buying that soon) and really like the looks and feel of it so far. I did change phones and had an issue re-attaching my Google account to it, but they were super quick to assist me. I will update with more after I have used it on the water but so far I'm impressed.

the app itself is great, but each year it requires to purchase a new version of the map and upgrade to pro to have the full content. Sadly after purchasing it once, I am running into the same situation again now and there is no response from the support team on this, so even after paying the 20USD last year, I am now not able to use the pro version of the app anymore. Very disappointing

I used it for one day and now my trial is over. I felt that it worked very well and I like the fact that I can record my track during the trip and view it later. I may be purchasing a new phone though, and after some reviews said that people had to purchase charts all over again after buying a new phone or device, I am holding off on a purchase. I don't want to buy the charts twice!
