Ratings and Reviews
Premium for anchor alarm and precise position - really?
Having bought B&G equipment for >30K it is not acceptable why one should pay again for essential functionality in the app.
Also knowing that on a Zeus 3/3s the anchor alarm is a joke.
Make the full app accessible for free for good customers.

Die Navigation und Routenplanung macht die Routenplanung einfacher und besser. Oder ich habe den richtigen Weg noch nicht gefunden?
Unusable
This app is a pain. It regularly crashes, refreshes all the time the connection, which is then dropped again. The functionality was designed by people never touched a sailboat - it‘s for marketing not for sailing. There is no way to plan on the app and import on the plotter - which should be the primary use of the app. Neither direct connection on the local network (what a sailor really wants often not having internet in the middle of the sea) nor via the internet account. There are multiple accounts for B&G and C-Map, which are supposed to work „seamlessly“ together, but which do not sync neither. And do not try to contact support, as the built in support function does not work. In case you contact them by other ways, they will not respond anyway, nor on software issues nor on hardware issues. I spent more than 25k on this crap and a lot does not work and nobody willing to fix it. Disapointing. Next time I buy Raymarine.
