This update brings ICW Nav's biggest feature drop since launch — a complete navigation engine redesign built around how Florida boaters actually use their charts. Track Recording Record any trip with a single tap. ICW Nav captures your full breadcrumb trail in the background, even when your iPhone is locked or you're out of cell range. Save the track and review it on the chart with distance and duration. Recordings survive backgrounding, airplane mode, and app relaunches. Saved Routes & Active Navigation Save any recorded track as a named route, then load and navigate it later. The new helm HUD shows distance to the next waypoint, ETA, and how far you've drifted off the line — high-contrast and readable in direct sunlight. Off-course warnings and arrival alerts keep you on the channel. Reverse Navigation One tap to run any saved route in reverse — perfect for returning home through the same waters you came in on. Out-and-back routes won't get confused with their outbound legs. Point-to-Point Waypoints Save personal waypoints at your current GPS position, or chain several waypoints into a custom sequence. Get accurate rhumb-line bearing and distance to any waypoint on the chart. Community Shared Routes Publish a saved route so other Florida boaters can use it. Browse routes shared by the community, filter by vessel type and draft, sort by rating, and import any route into your library with one tap. Rate routes 1–5 stars, or flag content that doesn't belong. Set Home Location from Settings Set your Home / Navigation location directly from Settings → Navigation using the same map-driven picker as your Weather Location — pan, zoom, and tap to confirm. No more typing coordinates. Under the Hood Smarter polyline simplification for faster rendering of long tracks Resume-after-relaunch for in-progress recordings Offline buffer keeps capturing points when you lose signal and flushes them when you reconnect
