Decent but needs work

Dealer points you to the new app, and this app is decent and much better than the new one. It’s as though Mercury can’t have one app to manage for the consumer. As many engines this company has out here, it’s frustrating to have an unreliable app to use. 2 apps with no direction as a company. Would be nice to have the features in this app combined into the new app, and make the new one faster. It’s so slow. It’s as though it’s not loading on device and causes the lagging delay instead of loading in the background and just showing the app in a usable state.

Fixing connection problem

I have a iPhone XR and it all of a sudden would not connect at all but with other phones it would not have any problems. I had to install an app called light blue and connect to it through that app and it started to work as normal again 👍. App itself has been great

No trim angle

Really would need this feature more that some others, crazy that you can’t see trim angle

Great

Very useful. Lots of information. Some customisation but nothing complicated. Just a shame you can’t Bluetooth the information to your chart plotter without extra expensive equipment.
But the app and the sender are great. 100% recommended.

Not worth it

For a $400+ module you are not getting much data from the actual engine. You are not getting actual fuel reads, MPH is from your phone, etc. I regret my purchase of the VesselView until these items are addressed.
