### 5/5 — Very Good App !

*2025-02-27, version 1.0.5*

Initially was a bit disappointed, as no Wind data, but raised a support ticket and Digital Yacht were very helpful and within 48 hrs they had enabled Wind data - the main reason I bought the system. Now I can see the boat's position on our floating mooring and the wind state whenever I am away from the boat.

### 5/5 — Great App !

*2025-02-26, version 1.0.5*

I agree with another reviewer that initial data is a bit limited but I've met Digital Yacht at a boat show, I had a good chat with a Digital Yacht guy and they will be rolling out a data subscription service very soon which will allow any mobile or web developer to access all of the boat’s NMEA 2000 data. I was glad to meet them!

### 2/5 — Minimal data

*2025-02-14*

So disappointed! With all the hype about being able to access “all” of your NMEA data. It only shows speed position and depth. They have a premium tier for 10 usd per month, which appears to add no value whatsoever. There may be more coming, but at this point, this platform is rudimentary at best.

### 5/5 — Super appli pour accéder à distance aux données du bateau

*2024-12-09, version 1.0.5*

Appli gratuite qui me permet de suivre à distance toutes les données de mon bateau et de mettre des alarmes de mouillage.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t do much

*2024-11-22*

I purchased the Njordlink device and downloaded the app. The device was easy to install and was able to use the app to configure the device to use my vessel’s WiFi. It had an anchor alarm feature available that was part of the free tier of service. Now that anchor alarm will cost USD 9.99 per month. And as far as I can tell, the app doesn’t do anything else.  They say features will be added in the future.  Let’s see. As of today, this app isn’t worth the effort.
