### 1/5 — Don’t waste your $

*2024-03-06*

Bought all the features and still nothing worked.  Couldn’t even get charts to load at home on WiFi.  Would never trust it on the boat.

### 1/5 — don’t get it

*2023-05-06*

have used this app, or tried to but it is just useless. i have bought one of their charts to try zoom in with ample signal and all i get is a white screen with a blue dot showing my location which looks to be in a complete white out in the mountains. 
absolutely nothing. wasted my money. not happy 
would love for my money back.

### 1/5 — Disappointed!

*2022-08-05*

This was never fully satisfying/dependable.  Now the Southwest Alaska chart is ‘disappeared’ rendering only a white screen with my blue dots/way points and no way to reference the shoreline.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2020-11-06*

Just waste of time and money. Don’t like it at all

### 5/5 — Canary Island

*2020-08-07, version 1.4*

Technical support  perfect
fast and efficient
I proudly recomend this app  and  developers

### 2/5 — Junk and a scam

*2020-06-28*

App didn’t work, had a white screen with no charts.  Contact customer support and they responded with a promo code and link to another app.  That app didn’t work either and customer support was silent, haven't heard a word since I requested a refund.  Fortunately I was able to get a refund through Apple Support.

### 1/5 — Total piece of crap app.

*2020-06-15*

Would give it less than one star if that was an option.  Absolutely no marine/nautical data.   Seawell blamed it on app not being compatible with latest version of IOS.   They sent supposed fix.  Updated app looks like it was drawn by a five year old.  This app is either a scam or nowhere near ready for release.

**Developer response:** Hello,

### 1/5 — Poor customer service, app doesn’t work

### 4/5 — Works well just an iOS conflict

*2020-03-25*

The app is great and works well as long as the iOS version doesn’t conflict. My last update made the app stop working, however when I contacted customer support they already had a solution in place and told me how to fix it. Works as it should now. Good customer support

### 5/5 — Buena App y buen Equipo Tecnico

*2020-02-12, version 1.3.8*

El equipo técnico resolvió rápidamente una consulta planteada. La nueva versión de la aplicación funciona como se espera con la última versión del sistema operativo.
