### 3/5 — Проблемы с входом

*2025-05-09*

Приложение с большой периодичностью просто не открывается.

### 2/5 — Perdu toutes les cartes

*2024-01-23*

En changeant de téléphone iPhone j’ai perdu mes achats de cartes qui ne sont plus accessibles alors que mon compte est le même … Décevant ! Vous demandez de vous contacter sur votre site mais c’est impossible … toujours le même message d’erreur en anglais … Toujours plus décevant!
J’ai été en contact avec le développeur , qui m’a indiqué la marche à suivre pour restaurer au moins la carte principale de Méditerranée : la procédure n’a rien donné: le message est toujours le même : pas de carte…
Toujours dans une impasse …

**Developer response:** Salut,Vous trouverez ci-dessous les étapes pour restaurer votre achat.
Appuyez sur le bouton de réglage.
Vous obtiendrez le bouton Restaurer les achats, cliquez dessus.
Après la restauration, accédez à la carte et appuyez sur le bouton de la carte en bas de l'écran. Accédez à la liste des achats intégrés, recherchez le carte que vous avez acheté, appuyez dessus et votre carte sera téléchargé ici.
J'espère que cela pourra vous aiderus aider

### 3/5 — Other Languages needed

*2022-08-04*

This App needs Little updates, like other operating languages for example turkish and so on.

### 1/5 — Incredibly slow

*2022-06-13*

Online not usable.

### 4/5 — Good but some Glitches

*2022-03-25*

I found this app very interesting. One issue is that I keep getting this banner that says they are selling the Florida Map for $1.99 but when you tap on it it takes you to a $7.99 purchase???? Also the weather is in metric with no apparent way to change it.  Keep trying guys.  It is promising

### 1/5 — Worthless for MN Ice Fishing

*2022-03-04*

Based upon all the positive reviews I downloaded the app & purchased the MN map set. The popular north metro lake I was going to fish had no contours, nothing. Looking at some lakes that had information, it was no better than the DNR maps. I removed the app after one day.

### 2/5 — Incroyable

*2022-01-22*

Début 2022: un port re-construit en 2008, ne figure pas dans sa nouvelle version…. Pas de mise à jour en 14 ans!

**Developer response:** Bonjour

### 4/5 — Einstellungen?

*2021-09-17*

An sich ist die App ganz gut. Nicht perfekt aber im Vergleich zu anderen kostenlosen App doch um einiges besser. Die GPS-Ortung ist sehr genau. Was mich aber wundert ist, dass ich auf dem IPhone (X) keine Einstellungen finden kann, wo ich die Tiefenangabe von ft in m ändern kann. In der Andoid-Version gibt es dies Einstellmöglichkeiten. 
Vieleicht kann hier der Entwickler eine Auskunft geben. 🤗

### 1/5 — Lake depth

*2021-05-29*

Can’t get to show lake contour, only shows blue with no depth contour.  Paid extra and nothing.

### 1/5 — ????

*2021-02-16*

Rubbish at best. $17.99 for Australian map, full of bugs and glitches.  Detail is shocking compared to others.

### 1/5 — Awe full

*2025-12-26*

The majority of bouts are not named and none have the light sequences on them, the type face and levels of information just make the screen a mess, when you zoom in it doesn’t stop at a set scale and when you go closer than that scale the screen goes to a grid, not user friendly ashore but afloat that could be life or death bit of passage and screen disappears just don’t touch it with a Quant Pole plus the colour scheme is bland so nothing Shanda out so you can’t find ….£&!&

### 1/5 — Totally incomplete

*2025-08-27*

Missing half the Georges River in Sydney and the map and app is very buggy and slow… paid for the Sydney map and doesn’t even show what I need. Complete waste of time and money

### 1/5 — Horrid App, inhuman paywall

*2024-08-16*

We had a man over board situation on board. When I tapped on the MOB button, I was asked to buy the pro version. This is inhumane and dangerous. We are lucky we still managed to retrieve the person from the water. Also loading times are insanely slow.

### 1/5 — Waste of money don’t buy

*2024-05-20*

This apps is terrible don’t waste your money.

### 1/5 — Just Purchased

*2024-04-07*

Purchased Australian map & fly view premium.   

Not what I expected !
A waste of my money in MY opinion.

Can’t try before you buy, so you cannot use/test until you pay then it’s too late.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2023-07-20*

You pay then you get advertising for more pay in-app purchases…..Garbage!

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2023-02-05*

Great ideas, very poorly executed. Seems very dependent on internet connectivity with heavy traffic and long delays (e.g., map loading, AIS DB), no apparent caching of regular content. Offline map an unsatisfying compromise. Very clunky mixing of layered information (e.g., satellite overlay scaling regularly does not match chart scaling making huge errors in narrow waterways). No sharing of personal information (e.g., saved routes) between devices. UI designs are confused (e.g., managing saved routes and markers, inconsistent layouts).

**Developer response:** Hello RTP, It seems you have a very old version of our app.Please contact us on our website support, www.flytomap.com . we will be happy to assist you

### 1/5 — Worthless.  Do NOT buy!!!

*2022-07-21*

Basic phone maps more useful, all functionality requires upgrade to “Pro” version

### 1/5 — Völlig sinnlose App

*2022-06-27*

Nicht nur, dass die Karten veraltet sind, auch die Position wird nicht angezeigt, AIS – Daten werden nicht angezeigt ! Außerdem sind die Ladezeiten etwas lang, zu lang. Die App ist völlig sinnlos! Wird wieder gelöscht!

### 5/5 — Very impressed

*2021-10-21*

I had a slight issue with a different App by these people and emailed them, i was told it’s an IPhone software update issue that hopefully will get sorted at some point. This company replied straight away and gave me a Free code for this map. Works perfect and extremely good and accurate, definitely a company to purchase from. First class.

### 5/5 — Support as Support ca be :-)

*2021-09-23*

Ich hatte die vorherige Version des Programms mit der Griechenland Karte in Verwendung, welche nach einem iOS Update nicht mehr funktionierte. 
Darauf hin habe ich den Support kontaktiert, welcher mir als Kompensation die neue Programmversion inklusive des kompletten Mittelmeer Raumes freigeschaltet hat.
Nochmals Vielen Dank für die schnelle Bearbeitung meines Anliegen und Freischaltung der zusätzlichen Karten.

### 5/5 — Works with iOS 14.7.1

*2021-08-16*

I really like the Flyto maps because you can use them with the offline maps when you are out of cell coverage.  I do a lot of SCUBA diving and most of the dive sites are well out of cellphone coverage so the standard map programs are useless. There is a good marking feature so you can mark points of interest. The route function will give you bearing and ETA which is very useful.

### 5/5 — Really needed this app…

*2021-07-14*

We had to spread my fathers ashes at sea. This app let me plot out the course, get to my waypoint, and get back. I was able to save the location, too. The best part I didn’t expect is this long, red line that extends out from my vessel on the map. It shows very clearly my heading in relation to everything else around me. Really cool. Thanks devs
