no information on big lakes near me.

i wanted to go out on a few lakes near me but it literally says no information. but showes me everything about other lakes 200 miles away. waste of money for this app

Does this work with apple car play as i have a screen installed on my boat

I have a car play device on the boat which alone music and so on but also does gps so is this app compatible with apple car play?

Response from developer

Hi William, thanks for your review! Unfortunately, Wavve does not run on Apple CarPlay at this time. That said, we understand how valuable that feature could be and will pass it along to our development team for future updates.

No lake data

Has no depth data on one of the most popular lakes in the country

No free version

Pay to use only app. Makes you create an account then can’t use the app without providing payment details for a brief trial period.

Useless for Key West

Had zero clue how to get to Jewfish Basin

Locked behind a paywall

This is a $70 a year app. Total waste of money and completely misleading. Not free at all.

Not Free!

They make you to enter all your info thinking that you’re getting a free app (& maybe pay for some features) but then they tell you that it costs $70 a year! (With a 14-day free trial). The problem is most apps like this will charge you the moment you say “yes” to free trial and cancelling it is a headache!

Looks like it would be amazing

If only they had the lakes that I boat on, it appears it would be a fantastic app and worth the money.

I live in “Lake Country” and it’s named that for a reason. However none of our lakes, even our largest lakes aren’t available on the map!

Trop chère

To much money

Nice maps

Works great, saved me a ton of money buying multiple gps chart plotters/units for different boats!

Routing need a LOT of work

The maps are nice but the routes take you through land, marinas, and dangerous areas. Not quite up to spec yet. Has potential though.

Ordered by mistake

All I wanted was to see how the Wave app worked. I must have hit the wrong button and mistakenly ordered an annual subscription for $69.99 plus tax. When I contact Wavve and explained the situation they offered me a full refund without question. The app is great, but I only have a small 14 ft boat for crab and prawn fishing and generally I am not more than 2 kilometres away from the dock .

This is a mistake.

All I wanted was to see how the Wavve ap worked, but somehow you were able to charge me for a year subscription through Apple Pay. I never requested a subscription or approved the payment. I am sure you were offering some sort of free trial, that is what caught my interest.
Why would I order this, I only have a 14ft boat I use only for shrimping and crabbing and I am never more than a 4 kilometres away from the dock. Plus I don’t put the boat in the water until the end of June for 4 months. Would you please ask apple to refund my payment.

Price?

Says in app purchases until you download it. Then it’s a free 3 day trial before you are billed. Never indicated how much it costs. Not playing that game.

Rubbish - doesn’t work

I gave it two weeks and tried from different locations on the water. It simply doesn’t work. I want my money back.

Hi there, thanks for leaving a review. We're sorry to hear that the app didn't work. Please reach out to us via email at community@wavveboating.com and we'd be happy to look into this and provide further support!

30 Days Trials Turns 69.99 Payment

A friend of mine who subscribe to the yearly app sent me a link to use the extended 30 days trial as I didn’t really use that 14 days when I have the app installed. Instead of granting me the 30 days as I click on the 30 days trial button, it freaking charge me a yearly subscription.

Response from developer

Hello, thanks for bringing this to our attention. We're sorry to hear that this happened and apologize for any frustration you have experienced. Unfortunately, Apple only allows one free trial per Apple ID and it sounds like you already used one in the past. Please reach out us via email at community@wavveboating.com and would be happy to provide further support.

Useful tool

I love using this app when on the water… what’s even better is their quick response to questions?
I emailed Kayla at Wavve Boating at 7:30 a.m and by 8:30 a.m she returned my email with the answer needed for Boating that day. 👍👍

Mj

Excellent app, l use every day for tides and sailing

Response from developer

Hi Mj, thanks for the 5-star review! We're glad to hear the app helps you on the water. Happy sailing!

waste of time

it doesn’t said nothing about a charge, make you sign in , add email, password, names then you have to agree to terms. 5 mins later as for a monthly membership $49 or $99 . I hate went apps try to scam you. If this is the way they start imagine once you are lock into a fee
