iNavX: Marine Navigation App Reviews

Good app

Its a good app I live in Alaska that works for me pretty well

The best and still getting better!

I have been using this app for 3 years. Tried other nav apps but nothing comes near. It does take some practice and read the guide that comes in the app. Its the best out there.

Disappointed

Save your money. This app is not intuitive at all for the price. There are better options that are free. This app is based on raster charts which is fine but when I create a route it should auto download all maps for the route. Instead it expects the user to figure which maps are needed. This also means that your need connectivity when ever you are planning a route or you will be left without a map. So no route planning while you are at a location without connectivity. save your money!

Simple yet full featured

Great app. I use it for route planning at home and as a back up for the gps on the boat. Also use it when we are on other peoples boats when I want to discreetly double check where the "captain" has us and if we are in any danger.

Awesome

Wont get lost with this bad boy!

Very confusing

Have to download different charts as you move from one area to another. Many do not show channel markers or buoys. Think i just blew $25

Simply the best!

I never leave port without it. An app you wont regret purchasing.

The best

INavX is THE best marine navigation program. -HL DeVore (navigator of Warrior Won, 2016 overall winner of the Newport Bermuda race). #dropsmic

Incredible bang-for-the-buck!

Weve used iNavx as our second gps for a few years now and find its functionality and ease of use to be better than either our Northstar or Garmin marine gps plotters. Super handy and we love having current charts! Great to take along on other peoples boats when we are not 100% confident in their equipment or charting skills too! Keep at it iNavx!

Not worth the money

This app is way too expensive for what you get, just a quick look around and I found better nav apps for far less money that seamlessly joined all the charts so you dont down load one chart only to find it doesnt have what you need. Look around, much better for much less.

Very limited detail

Depth readings and channel markers are non existent for anything inner coastal. Makes the app completely useless in the bay Im situated in with absolutely zero detail. Other apps are half the price and include way more depth readings and channel markers. Kinda disappointed, I only bought this app because of the high ratings.

Do not buy if you will use outside US waters

This app is misleading. If you need charts outside US NOAA charts you will have to get an account with X-Traverse and buy their very expensive charts (two chart sets for Vancouver Island are $300) and then go through a kludge import process to iNavx. Not cool. Avoid this BS, there are other better apps.

Bad app

This is the worst app I have ever bought. They should be ashamed to charge for. Having to Manually switch to inserts !?! Then manually , unintuitively switch back to big picture!?! Not 20th century, let alone 21st century!

Great Navigation Program with AIS

I bought iNavX in order to see AIS targets on my chart plotter on the iPad since I dont have that on my older Furuno radar/chart plotter. Im very happy with the display of targets and information in the program. Im about to take a long coastal cruise, so I will give it a good trial and evaluate it again after that.

Excellent app

I like it because you get the government charts with that level of detail. As a professional navigator, Ive used the app on both coasts extensively and been very happy with it.

Great App

Sail on a low budget and this app gives me great info and confidence. Accurate and easy to use once you set it up. Teamed with MacEnc for route planning. Just awesome!

Marine Navigation A+

Great app to use for sailing the Great Lakes! We use it all the time and the accuracy is amazing!

Cant compare

Literally I can not compare to other applications because I have not used any in actual nav situations. But I have used this one on many trips. It works. And dont ask me how I know but the anchor alarm works too!

Awesome! Boat navigation of the future!!

The most portable, accurate and upgradable navigation software for your iPad. Have been using it for seven years and love it!

Dont buy

Does not come with any detailed charts. You need to go buy charts from another website. Good luck with that. Rip off.
