Leave a Review SEAiq
Well thought out
This the best nav software by far. It is ready apparent that it is coded by people who use it, and really know software. Navionics, TZiBoat, iNavX, this one is far better and its free no nonsense goodness! It does have few obtuse bits like downloading charts the first time. The chart updater is great. Thanks for the good coding!Show lessfiberman-67
Great product for navigation.
Great navigation app. Uses NOAA Raster and ENC charts. All the extras like tides and are integrated nicely.desk_navigator
SEAIq
Creating routes and waypoints a bit clunky. A few options hard to find. Learning curve a bit steep, but does allow CHS charts, but US charts take priority rather than being selectable.4Sea dogs
Miserable chart downloader
Downloads, at least from the NOAA site, are excruciatingly slow in comparison to direct downloads from the site. Plus the app needs to be on screen with the iPad awake for downloads to complete. Any switching away can cause one or more chart downloads to fail, and you, rather than the app have to retry the update to pick up the missed charts. Lazy software design yields a poor user experience. The premium features would be worth the money but presumably the quality of the free version matches that of the paid version so no thanks.Show lessDelta Juliet Sierra
Works in HK
Works with official Mardep maps in Hong Kong waters. Not a bad application eitherMad Mark G
My new favorite navigation app
I love this app, especially for their NMEA as AIS features as well as showing a data bar on the map. The only feature I'm missing is VMG.Captain Petter
Shame for dropping unencrypted s57/ cm93 chart support
This was great application back in the days when cm93 was supported. That was also the sole reason to buy it the time. Not anymore. ShameNassik
Great app, .....
SEAiq is the best chartplotter available for the iPad for use by recreational cruisers in areas that low cost digital charts are available. In other areas the cost of chartworld and primar charts are excessive for recreational boats, when other chartplotters can use charts as good as the chartworld and primar charts at 10% of the cost, and 1% of the aggravation.
If SEAiq can fix this inequity, I would give it 10 stars, not just five.Show lessEgsellix
Great app
I have been using SEAiq open for a few years now. I rely on free charts from NOAA for sailing in the USA, and charts from Chartworld for other areas.
The app has proven to be very reliable, integrates with Active Captain, and Aye Tides data and others for complete offline use.
Highly recommend the app

Fantastic app
Ideal in US waters, downloading NOAA charts weather info etc easily and quickly. Also works with Active Captain providing a feast of piloting information about harbours and marinas, prices and reviews of facilities
Downside - charts for other locations, expensive and a fiddle to install. (gave up)
Initially had a problem getting Dual xgps 150 to work with SEAiq Active Captain etc. apparently due to a glitch in iPad IOS prior to 8.4, took a while to figure out but updating IOS and deleting and then app reloading fixed problem - works well now, outstanding bit of kit.Show lesspjlee1086
