## Most critical reviews (8 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — GPS does not work

*2022-04-27, version 0.3.2*

This app is useless. The GPS doesn’t even work on it. I was in the middle of the lake and had to switch to Google Maps instead where the GPS worked fine. It will show you some landmarks, but you’re going to have to navigate yourself.

### 1/5 — Completely horrible.

*2016-06-22, version 0.0.7*

Total waste of $. It was easy for going to a random dock or outdated locations but other than that the map had very few Points Of Interest.

### 2/5 — Good app, but not worth the money

*2020-07-15, version 0.3.1*

In all, the app worked the way it is supposed to, but way overpriced, shouldn’t have a price at all. Google maps or any other map app works just as well. Wouldn’t really recommend spending the money on this...

### 3/5 — App fails and freezes

*2023-05-26*

I have problems with the app not keeping up. It shows location but blue dot fails to show new location when I go back to app. I have to close it out completely and then re open

### 4/5 — Shallow water!

*2021-07-02, version 0.3.1*

Great idea- would be helpful to show shallow water areas as well.

### 5/5 — Great for new boaters!

*2019-02-16, version 0.2.4*

Fist time on Lake Norman and a new boater.  We were able to easily navigate from the SE part of the lake to the NW.  Great App and Great price!

### 5/5 — Best easy lake navigation app.

*2018-07-02, version 0.2.4*

This app is by far the best navigation tool for visitors and locals on lake Norman.  Find marinas, waterfront restaurants and more!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2017-10-01, version 0.1.2*

I use this app everyday while working on the lake. Very helpful to me in my job.
