### 1/5 — This app is garbage

*2021-07-27, version 5.9*

I want my money back. Can not zoom maps into any useful distance. Total garbage.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2020-05-17, version 5.9*

I bought this yesterday to go out fishing with in the Great Lakes , maps freeze up and you can’t zoom in not see any proper depths complete waste of money , I want a refund they won’t reply scammers they shouldn’t be allowed to put any apps on the App Store

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2019-08-10, version 5.7*

This app does not work, complete waste of money.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-06-24, version 5.9*

Have used for a few years, always pretty good . Now won’t even load up.

### 4/5 — The best gps app.

*2010-10-05, version 0*

I liked the fact that I could download this straight to my ipad by following simple directions. It’s easy to find a destination and map details are very useful. I especially loved the fact that its updates are free to download and only cost $8!

### 5/5 — Great app at a good price

*2013-07-09, version 4.0*

I ended up giving this app a more thorough testing than I'd planned a few weeks ago - I bought a sailboat in the USA and sailed it back to the Toronto area across Lake Ontario.   I'd forgotten my gps chart plotter at home and my new iPad (with the cell chip) was my only nav instrument aside from my compass.  

I turned on the tracking feature and headed off.  Every tack and turn was faithfully recorded, and I steered a nice course straight to home. 

Some nice features like the fly-to and Google map overlays.

A great app at a very reasonable price.  I almost picked up one of the competition's apps instead, but thought that $55 for an app was a bit steep.

One problem with it - every time I try the "search" feature to find a marina or city, it always takes me straight to a position just upstream from the Niagara Falls.   Maybe it thinks I have a deathwish.   ;-)

Other than that, highly recommended!
