Nul

Pourquoi avec changer l’ancienne application qui fonctionnait très bien.

Celle-ci est inutilisable sur un téléphone.

Pouvez-Vous nous remette l’ancienne SVP ?

Horrible

Incredibly lousy:
- when searching for a device not found it hangs, no way to kill it
- no touch screen remote control it says “not supported”: really, iPhone nor supported?
- no way to connect with the phone and the axiom connected to the boat’s WiFi

Given what Raymarine charges for Axiom devices this is infuriating

Unbrauchbar und unzuverlässig

Trotz aktueller Software auf allen beteiligten Geräten (iPhone 15 Pro Max) und Axiom Plus) gelingt das Fernbedienen nur sporadisch. Die App erkennt trotz vorhandener WLAN-Verbindung zum Plotter dieses Gerät nur sporadisch. Als Fernbedienung des angeschlossenen Autopilots daher völlig ungeeignet. Hier sollte unbedingt nachgebessert werden. So wie sich die App derzeit präsentiert, ist sie kein Aushängeschild für Raymarine-Produkte.

Utterly useless, unless you only want viewing or a remote control

I had to try it to believe how bad it really was. It does work fine as a viewer, so the exact screen that’s on the mfd will be shown. But as mentioned in other reviews, you are unable to edit or control anything whatsoever because once you attempt to do so a “control screen” will pop-up that fills the full screen, with a mouse to control and click with the cursor, but it fills the entire screen so you can’t see what you are doing. So you could potentially also use it as a remote to control the cursor on the plotter while looking at the actual plotter rather than your phone screen. But it definitely does not turn your phone or tablet into sort of a secondary mfd, which I think is what most people are expecting from this app, and something that should be technically possible with the right control interface.

Doesn‘t connect with 4.9.357

Since I updated the plotters to 4.9.357 the app can not connect anymore.
