What's New in Marine Radar

2.1.3

April 22, 2024

Improved menu display.

User reviews

Works, but without map integration.

If you just want a separate radar display on your iPad then this app works very well. It supports all of the features of the Furuno DRS4W radar.

The DRS4W radar can also be integrated with the TZ iBoat app to overlay the radar image onto navigation charts.

Ne fonctionne pas avec Navionics

Impossible de le faire fonctionner avec l’application de navigation Navionics sur mon IPad Air. Très déçu !

Apps crashes when opening

I just bought this radar and have installed it, connected the network it provides and when opening the app it crashes on the first or second screen on startup, never recovers and must install and reinstall again and again to only get the same issue. I am using my IPhone now, I am going to try my ipad and see if it does the same thing. If so, going for a return and choose another supplier.

Not great

It would be wonderful if they updated the application to make the radar actually useful. App hasn’t been updated in years. Radar system is pretty much trash.

For Mr. Newsome’s peace of mind -

I know you’re going to read these reviews- I’ve never had an issue with this system and have been using it since 2016.
