  • Overpriced for the exact same features as before

    Been a navionics subscriber for years, back when it was $24.99 a year. It had all of the same features as it does today. I don’t understand the price increase, especially when there’s also the Garmin Active Captain that also does the same thing except worse. I guess I’m going old school because I’m not paying $50 a year for mid mapping software.
  • Downhill since Garmin took over

    I have Navionics charts in my boat chart plotter and have always backed up the system with Navionics charts on my iPhone. They used to be free, but since Garmin took over, they are now charging some $40 or so per year. Not worth it when there are plenty of good free charting apps available.
  • Awful. Ready to sue

    Failed and put me at risk during a time of critical need. I happily used Navionics for many years as a secondary backup to my chartplotter. Yesterday I suffered engine failure at sea and when I brought up this app for help navigating a very challenging channel under light winds and no power, it kept cycling through a request to renew despite my subscription being active.
  • Horrible purchase

    I subscribe to a set of charts, they won’t download or show - it starts prompting me to select coverage “It’s time to explore charts and features” - “choose your coverage” so I do … again!! Then it prompts me with “your already subscribed” and the loop goes on and on and on
  • App is broken

    I’ve confirmed my subscription but the maps will not download and just keeps asking to subscribe in a loop over and over. Deleting and reinstalling does nothing. Waste of $50. Do not purchase.
  • Stuck in a loop

    Haven’t been able to use the app at all this year as I’m permanently stuck in a subscription loop. What am I paying for??!!

    I have made a purchase to subscription and as I go back on the app it keep on saying purchase the subscription
  • Good app, unreasonable cost

    I stopped renewing my subscription when they went to $49.99/yr. I own multiple on board chartplotters and could no longer justify the cost when I only do the occasional route planning or chart viewing on my phone. The app has its own usability issues. I’ll pay maybe $20/yr.

    What once was a solid app, has slowly but methodically degraded to one of the worst. Time to look elsewhere for this onetime Garmin subscriber!
  • Inland Waters the best

    Exceeded my expectations and it just keeps getting better. I’ve yet to boat an inland lake of river that Navionics has not mapped.
