As a non-subscriber but with a two year old chart plotter, the app no longer connects from the boat tablet to the plotter unless you have 4g or are subscribed? It served as a very basic, low-res mirror at the chart table with position and chart being relayed from the paid-for chart subscription on the plotter. This now means you need a data sim package and to have subscribed.
… and the ‘report a probkem’ feature if the app doesn’t work or allow screenshots showing the problem to be added. Another reason to stick with TZ iBoat and Navionics
Dreadful app. Works on my iPad but on my iPhone it opens but none of the buttons work. I have 2 Zeus screens on my boat. They are good but the connectivity to phones is dreadful. I paid for premium last year. Won’t make that mistake again.
The B&G app is an ideal addition to the B&G plotter being able to use as a remote device The C-Maps are clear and easy to navigate the premium is very good value given the coverage along with the addition of weather etc I highly recommend getting the app to anyone going sailing even if you don’t have a B&G plotter
Given that the Zeus3S 12 costs around £3700 one would of thought the iOS app would work seamlessly. I routinely struggle to mirror the chart plotter my iPhone or iPad. When it does connect the graphics aren’t sharp or responsive. I struggle with WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity between the plotter and my iPhone 15 pro max. The iOS app does not display AIS information. I’m surprised that the app does not display other boat information such as TWA, TWS, Autopilot and Radar like the significantly cheaper Orca Core. Finally the Apple Watch app does not work no matter which connection method I choose.
I love B&g
Since the app got hacked we have not been able to access it and can’t find an eta for when it will start working again?
I cannot redownload it. Update doesn’t work! €42.99 wasted!?!
I’ve been using this app during my crossing of the Atlantic with no issues. That was until I was within reach of a 4g signal which updated the app. Now I am unable to sign back into use the app. Thanks B&G. Maybe test before issuing updates?
I am grateful to B and G for reinforcing my view that paper charts are an essential part of navigation. This app is simply not reliable enough and seems to focus on sales rather than service. Lost its way.
