For over $60 I can't see any significant improvement over the standard version. In fact just runs slower and some functions such as contour shading are even more limited. Still prompts for Navionics+ although text clearly states its included in the HD package. Will revert to previous version.

I purchased the africa asia HD version and yesterday saw a warning only 330 days left...I paid a lot of money thinking the installation is permanent? Nowhere before you download does it say valid for one year only...if this is the case it is a ripoff and I will make an effort to spread the word? Please give feedback.

After using for about a week, the sea contour lines DISAPPEARED! The app asked me to re-download the map and said it was payable. Next the advance map options which I had to purchase TWICE disappeared and I was asked to purchase again! This is more than disappointing since I need to use it again this weekend.

I have been using the navionics apps on both my tablet and phone for years trouble free. Recently however it started giving problems. At this moment I cant download the charts for Hong Kong where I use this app most often. I bought Asia and Africa but I cant download Hong Kong asit says I canonly download the areas that I purchased?!? I need the app mainly for HK waters, why doesnt Navionics state that there are issues with HK before the app is purchased?

Can't fine tune or modify a route once it's entered. Only option is to delete the route and start over or delete the last waypoint one by one until you get back to where you need a change. Crude and unuseable. Now i have a message plastered all over the map. "Sorry sonar data is not yet availble for your area". Can't see important small details through this noise. Do these developers ever get on boat? Use OpenCPN rather than pay good money for this.

by Z####:

You want to charge again for this chart in 365 days but you haven't added any useful functionality in 2 years?! Forget it. Still only one route, no sensible way to edit a route, no way to follow a route, tracks stop recording if app is in the background, shared anchorages not shown unless zoomed in too much. No way to put marks or corrections on chart. OpenCPN for me. You guys are too greedy. And did I mention your charts are not accurate nor updated in Asia. And the HD version is the same as the normal version so you charged me twice.

Dear sir I tried many software like transas and xnav .... Etc. and i see your program is the best so i suggest many function to be added on your application to be number 1 in the world and my suggestions specially on (iPad, iPhone, smartphone and tablet): 1- Display AIS data on the navionics chart within 10 NM around me using VHF AIS RECEIVER by create and develop a small device connected directly to smartphone , iPad or tablet to get real time data without internet connection or without SHIP AIS as pilot plug. 2- Add VRM 1, VRM 2 and EBL functions. 3- Add limit zone function with alarm. 4- Add watch anchor function with alarm. 5- Add location alarm function .... Let user to store multi locations and get alarm when arrive it. 6- Add database function that let the user to store the arrival data and time for any location and make historical data. 7- Add Route editing for android versions. 8- Add navionics+ for android versions. 9- Plot suez canal buoys (I did it by my self and share it please review the accuracy).

I just bought Lawrence HDS5 for my boat , comparing the charts with my tablet are far different. The details on my tablets are much better hence on larger screen. The GPS works fine while offline, Tough I have the HD version still we don't have the total benefits as on IOS, like fuel planning, auto tracking, ETAs sect , looking forward for more update

Sept 22: Navionics has agreed that this app will not run on my device and asked me to install a different Android operating system than the one that came with the device. when I bought is new. Isn't it time to refund my purchase? Sept 16: This app crashes immediately after opening and displaying the splash screen. Totally unusable. The play store shows this app as compatible with my device. The play store shows this app as installed when it has been uninstalled. No option was shown for a refund. Please refund my purchase. Imobile Inote WiFi 7" tablet Septemeber 19: I am cutting and pasting the Navionics reply to the above because I cannot reply from the app as Navionics requested. Hey Navionics the app crashes before I can do anything, That means before I can reply to your Mobile Team within the app. Please give me back my $64. It's too much money for this kind of customer policy. Navionics September 18, 2013 Dear Mr Cloud, please contact our Mobile team within the App itself from Menu -Submit Feedback, explaining the problem you are facing. Please, mention our ref. #12288 that we have already assigned to you for any assistance you may need. thanks

Pros: Everything works well Easy to use; many great features. Cons: Ads for chartplotter charts keep popping up. This shouldn't happend with paid app. I don't even own a chartplotter, and will never buy a chart for one. Help manual is wrong regarding adding Winds and Tides. You can go to edit winds and tides to add new ones. No mention of grib files, but they are available, simply by tapping the winds panel they are downloaded and overlaid on the chart. Wonderful Google Earth overlay,but sometimes this p
