Developer Response ,

Hi, thank you for your 4 stars.

Once completed Plotter Sync by connecting your mobile device to the plotter’s Wi-Fi, the GPX route files will be stored on the plotter’s mSD card and need to be manually transferred to the plotter’s internal memory in order to be viewed on your GPS device screen.
Please, make also sure that the ‘Archive’ folder has been created within the ‘Navionic’ folder of your card as it is where your routes in GPX format will get stored.
See also further instructions on how to transfer routes&markers from the Boating app to your plotter and viceversa on our online support center here: https://tinyurl.com/2p8zpvat

If this does not help, please contact us from within your Boating app Menu> Submit Feedback, mentioning “iTunes review” and your nickname “spyros39”, attaching:

• A photo of your card’s SD adapter where we can read its alphanumeric code of 14 digits starting with IT in order to identify it
• A screenshot: https://tinyurl.com/3kp75z2s of any error message you might receive in your app while trying to transfer routes&markers
• A photo of the ‘Archive’ folder content: insert the card in your PC > File explorer > Navionics > Navionic > Archive

Thank you for your kind cooperation.

Have a nice day!

A helpful tool

I am a happy user of this app when boating. Easy to use, accurate, almost every day updates. Programmers are listening and react rapidly to my remarks on feedbacks about things needing improvement.
