The Gps Nautika app is intended for all skippers of motorboats and sailboats who want to use GPS for sea navigation.
This is important in case you, as the skipper, know the departure point and the arrival point, but do not know the exact route you will sail.
For safe sea navigation, it is necessary to plan the route you will navigate using GPS. As a first step, you need to get the coordinates from the map or you can enter the coordinates for each route point directly into the app.
In the second step, you can open the planned route file and start the navigation process. Track recording will also be turned on.
You will sail towards your destination along the planned route, following your current position on the smartphone screen.
You can also check the distance to the coastline at any time.
App Features:
- Route planning
- Sea navigation
- Points of interest
- Nautical charts

You can select units for length and speed that are kilometer-based "km, km/h, m" or nautical-mile-based "nmi, kt, ft".
You can create a planned route file by entering latitude and longitude coordinates and speed for each route point and then save the planned route file in your local storage folder.
Also, you can get the coordinates from the map by tapping each subsequent route point.
Select a departure time using the time picker,
The app will automatically calculate the following:
calendar time for each route point,
travel time, distance and compass direction and for each line between two points,
arrival time, total travel time and total travel distance.
Open the planned route file and start the navigation process. Track recording will also be turned on.
You will sail towards your destination along the planned route, following your current position on the screen.
The following information will be continuously displayed in the upper left corner of the screen:
Travel time so far,
Remaining travel time,
Estimated arrival time,
Distance remaining.
Finally, you will be notified with the message "You have arrived at your destination".
You can create a point of interest file by entering latitude and longitude coordinates and point name for each point of interest, save the point of interest file in your local storage folder and show the map of the points of interest from the open file.
Start defining points of interest on the map and then you can get the coordinates of a point of interest from the map by tapping on the location of the selected point.
