Estou bloqueado no meio de uma viagem marítima por causa de uma regra oculta de "limite de trocas de dispositivos". Sempre respeitei o limite de 2 aparelhos ativos, mas agora o app bloqueou meu dispositivo principal alegando excesso de trocas, o que coloca a segurança da minha navegação em risco. Solicito que o suporte resete o contador imediatamente. A Garmin deveria usar o GPS/telemetria para ver que os aparelhos estão no mesmo barco em vez de punir o usuário inadvertidamente.

I used the iPhone app for years and was happy with it. The Android version is hardly usable in comparison. How is this possible Garmin? Also not allowing cross plattform usage. If you have an iPad you buy it twice? Come on! Time to switch I guess. Thanks for the answer. I solved my cross platform problem and will contact the support for the others.

I have 4 or 5 good apps for maps and depths. This app is supposed to be the best but it never loads satellite imagery. Anything it does load, or tries to load, doesn't load 100%. App needs some serious attention. Save your money.

Disappointing

Paid for full subscription. Every time I try and load maps it asks me to subscribe, I ok all the prompts "your already subscribed" then the death loop starts again. Not good enough for 90 bucks a year! For reference used to work perfectly.

Just ok

Been using for 10 years - like everyone… also annoyed at the garbage money grab, the loss of maps forcing subscriptions when it’s already been purchased and price increases… but my issue now is when can we have MORE than 1000 spots saved on iPhone. It’s killing me

Solid charts but feel like the app could be modernised

Charts are very good and accurate. I feel like the app is slightly outdated. I’d like to see a filter section where you can turn different things on and off, and be able to adjust the depth depending on the tide level plus a few other user features

Won’t load layers

It says I’ve paid and subscribe for the Australia maps but the map is only brown and I can’t see other layers of maps or charts

Deleted account

My account along with all my marks and waypoints all gone for no reason. 10 plus years of data lost cause someone at navionics decided it was ok to delete my account that was not used for a few years.
