Explore with Imray

Αν δεν αγορασεις χαρτες δεν εχει τιποτα αξιολογο,με χαρτες ειναι μια χαρα.εχει λεπτομεριες ακριβως οπως οι χαρτες οι κανονικοι στην γεφυρα.

Από Ελλάδα δεν υπάρχει χάρτης αλλά ούτε και από Μεσόγειο. Τουλάχιστον δεν βρήκα κατι

In the absence of any trial period I bought a year’s subscription. As soon as downloaded the Eastern Mediterranean chart I realised that this Imray charts is light years behind, say, the Navionics equivalent. It would not be safe to sail with the above Imray chart as many, many, essential navigation points are missing- Isolated Danger Marks, Cardinal Points etc. I immediately sent an objection/Problem Report to Amazon and , to their credit, Amazon have issued a immediate refund. Sad but true- these Imray charts regrettably appear to be out of date and seem to do Imray’s reputation no good at all.

Sadly very overpriced charts. Too pricey for the average Joe

Used to work in previous but has become very unstable crashing and closing itself in current version

I have used this app many times. I use it concurrently with my electronic plotter and the cross referencing gives me a check for any potential input mistakes. The display is better than my plotter and of course I can mount the iPad near the helm should I need it. Useful and accurate enough when in unfamiliar harbours in low and good visibility day and night. Like any navigation tool it is by definition complex and any time spent in familiarisation is never wasted. My biggest gripe is the updating of the charts. The current set listed as available are still 2016. Not good when up to date charts are so important. Whatever the problems, an experienced chart provider should do better and it reflects badly upon Imray in this case. I like Imray charts and products, and this shortfall is out of character and needs addressing ASAP or the app should be withdrawn until this updating shortfall has been addressed. Subsequent to this initial review Imray have contacted me to explain that they have already identified the update shortfall and will be issuing a new app that works on a similar system expected by June 2017 Clearly Imray are responsive to supporting their apps

Totally unstable keeps shutting down. Unable to explore functionality, appears useless. Do not waste your money. I want a refund.

Poor on iOS Keeps shutting down. User interface is awkward Charts you buy are missing all notes and tidal info. Not good enough

Complete waste of money. Doesn't cover what it claims and not many charts. What a waste of coin and time. Not user friendly. Coming from a Navigating Officer I would strongly not recommend this product. £50 down and now removed from phone after half hour.

This is a bit of a Cinderella product. Having sat down at home for a couple of hours at home, I now understand how it works. The competitor Navionics is easier to use but not as rich: won't let you overlay AIS, for example. Moving between charts is not automatic, but you just need a single tap to see which charts are relevant. Well worth the money. A few things do need improving: the manual, the font size on the instrument panel, the size of current position. I think you only get today's tidal info unless you buy Imray Tides Planner as well, but I would recommend that even if you only use Navionics. PImray
