New feature requests

Cam.R.66 on

Having an integrated start line feature would be great for those that use the app on a tablet for inside racing. Many smaller yachts don’t have plotters but having the start line feature and racing features as a premium option would be a great addition to the basic navigation.

Limited.

Capt Ropeable on

Limited functionality compared with plotter making it basically useless. Only thing it’s good for is mirroring or controlling plotter remotely over wifi. Be careful…the app overwrites all your routes stored in the plotter. I lost 28 race courses and hours of work when I synchronised the app and plotter, the app which had no routes simply overwrote the 28 stored in the plotter. No warning this would happen.

Support for Zeus S mirroring lacking

Nick in Sydney on

I would happily improve my rating if screen mirroring for Zeus S was included. You think that when you buy the latest and greatest chart plotter from B&G this key feature would remain, but so far not. Documentation download doesn’t work either. It would also be great if the premium promo could be hidden in the free app. As it stands the only thing that is supported is the sw upgrade function, although I haven’t needed to use it yet

New route making features come up short

WOODSIES TROPPO on

The new create route with auto routing added is a great feature knowing you can just keep adding next waypoint. However if you have a lot of pre-loaded waypoints you cannot directly input those in sequence like a bulk insert feature actually in the route creation on the Vulcan plotter. If that feature was in the app then you really have an amazing app to do all your pre-routing at home.

very nice

fishmanye on

very nice to use it!

Not ready for prime time

Samtutuki99 on

Thi app has promise but doesn’t deliver! I am running it on iPhone 12 Pro Max. The app is slow, the buttons and drop down menus are very slow and often don’t work. App Store says Australian charts are USD 49.99 but app says premium version is 36.99??? What is going on. This place is the only place I can give feedback or ask for help. Hell and feedback is just not available via the app. Is the app compatible with Vulcan 7FS? The personalise your map button is too slow. Needs a serious make over.

Complete failure - support nonexistent

oralloy on

App doesn’t work. Account is broken. Customer support told me my Vulcan 7 is t compatible with the App - despite that being one of the much publicised features. I’ve responded accordingly but no one bothers replying. Hopeless. Would rate zero stars if possible.
