About this app

When it comes to marine navigation, and staying informed on current boating conditions, such as marine weather, wave heights, water depths, and tide changes, the Wavve Boating GPS is the most convenient choice. The Wavve Boating app takes a new spin on outdated marine navigation apps, tide charts, and chart plotters by combining all of the same functions and more into one easy-to-use tool.

High quality custom maps for your boat, complemented with intuitive navigation features, marine traffic, community generated points of interest and other boating tools will make navigating your boat a breeze. Wavve makes it easy to go boating, sailing, or fishing so you can feel like a local everywhere you go.

Wavve Boating Features:

SIMPLE AND SEAMLESS MARINE NAVIGATION
Forget those overcrowded and confusing boat maps and marine gps apps, with Wavve Boating GPS, it’s as easy as staying in the blue, and avoiding the red.

CUSTOMIZED MARINE CHARTS ⛵🚤
Wavve Boating's innovative approach allows boaters to view and change nautical charts based on their unique needs and preferences. Set your boat draft and Wavve Boating redraws the marine chart data specific to your boat. Marine charts are sourced from NOAA in the United States, CHS in Canada, and AHO in Australia.

ACTIVE AND HELPFUL BOATING COMMUNITY 🐬🦑🐳
With Wavve’s boating community you will always find something, or someone new. You can view other users on the map and even add them as friends. Share your insightful boating knowledge and marked points of interest with a growing network of boating enthusiasts. You’ll have a reliable source for fishing spots, boat ramps, marinas, mooring locations, beaches, restaurants and much more! Don’t worry you can mark points as private and hide your location at any time.

TIDES🌊
The Wavve Boating map automatically adjusts to display current water levels based on tide charts and tidal changes in a particular area of water. You can view hourly tide level changes up to 3 days in advance. Wavve takes the stress out of high and low tide.

MARINE WEATHER☀️🌨
Stay a step ahead of the storm with our marine weather tool. Use the weather tab to view a 7-day marine weather forecast with everything you need to know down to the hour, including weather conditions, temperature, wind speed /direction, and wave heights.

GOODBYE CHART PLOTTER👋
Gone are the days of marine navigation with a cluttered chart plotter and buying marine charts piece by piece for your chart plotter. Wavve Boating has integrated all marine charts into one map for your boat GPS needs.

LOCATION AVAILABILITY
Current nautical chart data includes coastal United States, Australia, Canada, The Great Lakes, The St. Lawrence River and portions of the Caribbean. You can view a map of our marine GPS coverage at https://wavveboating.com/map/

I'm new at boating. I spent $1000 dollars on a depth finder/ fish finder. 90% of the time it's useless. if I driving it' works sometimes and when I need it most it doesn't work. with that being said the wavve app saved me and made boating less stressful. It's never let me down and so simple to use . I feel so much more confident. I can't believe how accurate it is . I 100% rely on it and tell everyone I meet the benefits of wavve. I've had a couple of my friends try it out and we're sold .

Any news on updating with a night version. It's really the only thing missing. Otherwise great app but impossible to use at night with such a bright background. Please just invert the whites to black and charcoal with a darker blue for water. That would be great, thank you Why is there no night mode? Still learning the app but I don't see a night mode or an actual way to navigate to a destination... Just shows where I am...... Still waiting on the night version

Hi Chrystian, thanks for your feedback. Night mode is in consideration for development this fall/winter and we will factor your input for prioritization. You can create a route to a given location by tapping the higher of the two teal buttons on the bottom right of the map screen. We are in mid development of further nav features. Thank you!

Multiple times while on the Waccamaw River it would not show channels and outlets that Google maps would. Multiple times I would have to use Google maps to get back to my original location. This app does not have full mapping capabilities. Also, and this is minor, I've tried connecting with other people multiple times and not one connection. Maybe they are not receiving the request but I do not find this very community friendly as advertised.. Canceling my subscription.

Hi Okram, sorry to hear about this issue. Not all of the Waccamaw river is charted by NOAA. We'll work to improve this along with making it easier to build out your fleet in wavve - thank you for this feedback.
