Each time when a chart update is available, you will see a star notification and an update button in the Chart Store.

Your subscription will automatically renew unless auto-renewal is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the subscription period. You can cancel your subscription in the Chart Store any time.
All previously purchased chart folios will remain available for you and can be restored from the service via the Chart Restore function. To receive subsequent chart corrections for your purchased charts, you will need to subscribe to the annual updates in the Chart Store.

If you re-subscribe, your new subscription will be automatically updated at the current price unless you cancel chart update service before the subscription period ends in Settings -> iTunes & App Store -> Apple ID -> View Apple ID -> Account -> Subscriptions.

We hope you enjoy this update and improved version of iSailor!

Happy sailing!

Without shame.

I’m sailing a couple of years with i-sailor and was very satisfied with this system. Why did Wärtsilä joined the club. They better focus on their four stroke engines, instead of changing a reliable electronic chart system and adding costs (I’ve about 60 chart folio’s with a so called ˋlife timeˋ update) to sea-going people with this new subscription. The rating of the program drops from 5 stars to 1, and they just might be happy that a negative rating is not allowed. In future, I’ll give a negative advice to all colleagues and be sure, I’ll find a good alternative. Shame on you, Transas and Wärtsilä. You’re just a bunch of thieves and master liars.

Developer Response ,

Hi capt.angry, sorry to hear your frustration. We are now offering free unlimited update on all charts (besides Denmark due to the Danish Hydrographic Office requirements) purchased before Nov 28, and special deals on all charts until end of Feb. Hope you will enjoy these special offers!

Avoid

Abrupt change in update policy, charging customers for the full price of charts each year for updates where previously they where included. Strongly suggest to avoid this software and use alternatives.
