what is wrong with those programmers !!!! all we want is a Simple way to: select a location on the map, and do a GOTO that location (duh... of course it is from my actual position), and that's it !! and show the BRG XTE Speed . and alert us 5/10 mins before reaching waypoint. why do they complicate things. Routes can be just a list of thise waypoints, to quickly select next destination. gosh!

Dear HM, I think you have to find a product that suits your very specific and unique demands. Or build one yourself!

The app is generally good, the auto routing feature worked well for me. I wouldn't want to navigate the Netherlands without it. There are some factual errors. One bridge height was incorrect. One new bridge was missing. One bridge was noted as closed, but was open and there was no contact information for the bridge, and no way to comment on the bridge information. Auto routing didn't recognize the closure. Routing underestimated transit times for my slow boat, we should be able to set speed

Hey Nick, If you send us a mail on support@waterkaarten.app, we love to hear which information was wrong. We can also explain how you can report that through the app. Thousands of people do that and we update information every week.

it won't find a single route from Bagillt Harbour to places I visit regularly on my boat. So it's basically useless. if I can't trust it in places I know, would never trust it in places that I don't.
