Auto Route rarely works

As in title. The function used to be amazing, but some time in the last year garmin seems to have hobbled the ability. Most times it errors out even with boat settings very generously simple ( 1’ draft ). When routes are broken into smaller sections it works alright.

Does not work

I created an account and was on the free trial. It kept prompting me to download a section of my maps, then it would glitch out and reset to the original sign up for subscription screen every time. I tried deleting and re downloading the app but nothing worked. Completely broken app

Useless for sailing

Everytime I do a tack, the cursor still point in the old direction so the ship appears to move sideways. I need to restart the phone or tablet everytime to fix the issue so the app is pretty much useless until they fix the bug..!!!
