Navico Norway AS · Navigation
Reviews overwhelmingly cite crashes, lost GPS position, broken track saving, frozen settings and failed offline downloads across several versions. The software is neglected, but the charts themselves are praised.
The rating collapse comes from v4.6.x crash-on-launch, frozen settings and unreliable chartplotter sync, all neglected for months. Some crashes may be tied to new iOS and iPhone releases. The app's value is tied to Navico hardware and C-MAP charts, so users are partly captive.
GEC s.r.l. · Navigation
Recent reviews mostly cite broken tile downloads, a buggy route planner, freezes, disappearing offline charts and poor UX. A secondary theme is creeping add-on pricing. Users are not captive, since Navionics and iBoating are named as alternatives.
Wavve Boating Inc · Navigation
Most recent 1-stars attack the hard paywall: a forced trial before seeing anything, hidden pricing, and surprise annual charges. A second large group complains about missing lake data and poor routing.
Garmin International · Navigation
The decline is driven mostly by Garmin raising the annual subscription to about $49 and paywalling basic charts and saved spots. This is compounded by a widespread bug where paid users get stuck in a subscription-entitlement loop, plus crashes and GPS freezes. Users still pay, but many are churning to Savvy Navvy, Orca and free NOAA-based apps.
SAVVY NAVVY LTD · Navigation
Most complaints target the hidden hard paywall/trial and high annual price, compounded by buggy auto-routing, subscription sync failures and poor support; chart coverage gaps also recur.
