A must.

I’ve used Boatie for many years now and have always found it to be accurate in every respect. An absolute “must have” app.

Worth the money

Reliable wind speed and direction, as well as the tides

Good app

Like it very much.

Great tidal app

Very usefull for planning trips and especially the barometric height adjustments as I am on a coastal river mooring with limited access so every inch helps . Great support as to resolve a glitch on my iPhone

Great app with a contactable human for support

I have used this app for years thru my sailing and now motor boating days. It has so much information for passage planning and everyday life on or around the water. But what I really appreciate is that when changes are made you get a non technical explanation and if you have a problem you get a quick response from a guy who actually cares about his app and your experience.

Will not load on iPad

Will not load on iPad, works well on iPhone any ideas?

Fantastic app! I’ve had it for years and it keeps getting better . Communicating with the developer and sorting slight glitches . It is an essential app to have for regular and discerning mariner !!!!

Free version was better

My partner & I both have Boatie we can be on the app at the same time and have two completely different results for the same port, it’s rubbish since we paid for it

Since latest update weather information will not load

This is an excellent app.

As an RYA instructor and a delivery skipper I use this app all the time and make a point of showing it to my students. A great source of planning information and on the go nav aids

Subscription

Had this app for years having paid for it. Now a subscription disappointed.

Great app

Boatie has always been terrific for yacht racing, so much live data easy to hand - even COG and SOG For a few years Boatie seemed to be unsupported and they never replied to emails, but I stuck with it and now it is alive and great again I’d love to get Solent marks auto updated, linked to SCRA But still like Boatie best

Sea Kayak Resource.

This app has been my go to resource for a fair few years.
Great for tide info and weather forecasting.
Ideal for multi day trips.
Highly recommended.

Boatie

Does what it says on the tin. Very happy with the app!

Helpful app!

The app has been very helpful navigating the English Channel and Channel Islands. A little glitchy at times with the tide direction but I’m sure that will be sorted out.

Scale

A scale on the interactive atlas would be useful

Essential App for Sailing

Works on iPhone and iPad- I am not sure how I would manage without this excellent aid. I have been using it almost from its birth. Very well done.

Best boating app !

This is a brilliant app for yachties and boaties.......... Excellent weather, tide and tidal stream info. Simple to use and quick to update. James also very open to feedback too. Highly recommended.

Skipper

Excellent Miss the tide clock, but we'll done.
🇬🇧👍

Annoyed

Just purchased this app as I wanted to show Neap And Spring tides on my Home Screen as a widget. I’m boat crew for the RNLI so wanted this for obvious reasons. Straight away noticed the tide height is wrong - by 0.7m which makes a difference. Just given over £10 away!

Unable to access after paying for subscription

I previously had this app on an old iPad and just started a new subscription on my new ish iPhone 13. I managed to register for the new subscription and have paid the annual fee however the app keeps hanging at the opening screen and I am completely unable to access the app. I have uninstalled and reinstalled three times and am completely unable to access. I don’t know what has happened and I am very sad because this app used to be great. I also can’t find a way to request a refund, v frustrating.
