### 1/5 — Wasted money

*2022-05-15, version 5.9*

Just bought this app, and I does nothing but freeze up on my iPad and does not bring up any maps.  Waste.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2021-04-19, version 5.9*

App doesn’t work took my money and support just gives me the run around!!

### 1/5 — Will not pick up satellite

*2019-05-26, version 5.7.1*

Will not find satellite on my iPhone 6s+ with IOS 12.3.1. Would not buy

### 1/5 — Does not work on iPhone X screen size

*2018-11-10, version 5.7.1*

App is not formatted for iPhone X. Waste of $10. Looks like a good program but will not know until it’s adjusted for the X screen size.

### 1/5 — RIPOFF!

*2012-06-12, version 3.5*

I bought this so I could use it around Baltimore.
NOTHING around Baltimore Harbor and the Bay!
It's all grayed out.
This is a HEAVY BOATING AREA.
RIPOFF!

### 1/5 — Incomplete

*2011-07-23, version 2.5*

Various sections blocked out. Don't purchase until this is rectified.

### 2/5 — chesapeake??

*2011-07-04, version 2.5*

not worth the money--the upper part of the chesapeake bay is missing--that's where i boat

### 1/5 — Incomplete

*2011-05-31, version 2.5*

A large section of the northern bay is inexplicably blacked out.

### 3/5 — Update map!

*2011-03-08, version 2.5*

A portion of marine area is covered blank near the north west boundary which is very important. If this is done then the map will be fantastic.

### 4/5 — App got everything

*2011-02-19, version 2.5*

App is awesome and worth every penny! I bought my iPad for this app and I’m beyond thrilled. I considered buying a handheld gps for several hundred dollars. Now think it’s not necessary. I like the ability to use Gps, mark waypoint and see distance, angle and direction towards the target waypoint. I definitely recommend buying this app to anyone.
