  • Crashes on iPhone

    The home page comes up, but when I try to obtain more information it crashes the app.
  • Missing Information.

    Would have given this a five stars but they removed the oxygen level information. Very important when planning when and where to fish.
  • This software should be removed from the iTunes Store

    Completely unstable on iOS 12.4 on both iPhone and iPad. Useless.
  • Very disappointing

    Downloaded to see the winds from yesterday’s 29+ knots around the Bay. The Annapolis buoy is apparently not yet back in the water, so no data there. And when I click on Potomac, it remains stuck on the Annapolis data page, giving me nothing from any other station.
    If this is only a seasonal app, please add a help section to clearly identify that status. Otherwise it is just poor programming with lots of bugs.
  • Great app. Needs upgrade for iOS 10.3.3

    It's a great app. I have been using it for the past several years, and one of the bouys is right across the Bay from my marina. The down side seems to be Apple's iOS 10.3.3. Ever since that upgrade the app continues to crash and is unusable.
  • Great to boaters

    Great information for the recreational boater on the Chesapeake. I hope future versions include preferences so you can set the display order of the data you want to see the most and to change units (knots/mph/m/s, etc.). I highly recommend this app.
  • Used to work

    This was a great app but hasn't worked in a month. Map says no data connection and buoy data is empty.
  • Wont update

    The past week the app is saying it must be connected to the internet. Well im connected to the internet 24/7 through my cell plan and my wireless router at home. Still doesnt work.
  • Great info but...

    It's great to have this info easily accessible, but if the buoy is offline, please don't keep month-old data showing. It's very confusing- especially since the date/time font size is so very tiny. It would also be nice to know if/when offline bouys are expected to be back up.
  • Can't see the map

    Good info but can't bring up map.
