Ratings and reviews

Perfect. Perfect backup too. Gives you the basics and presents them clearly. The course you want, the course you're actually travelling, the speed over the ground and how far to go. I would add, just to be picky, that the term bearing (i.e. to the mark) would be less confusing than course in this context. Just my opinion.

Would be nice to have a way to add waypoints by placing them on the map. If that's not possible, "Share to.." from the Google maps, pasting lat/lon from the clipboard - any way will do instead of typing the coordinates one by one.

Pretty useful when sailing, specially if it's your primary navigation instrument. Quite large displays, accurate and independent of data receiving.
