Sounds don’t play

Happy with this app except sounds do not play at all? I’ve checked settings & reloaded app but still do not work, which is a pain.

Not supported

Forget this - will soon not work as not IOS11 compatible

Not supported

Agreed with below, needs upgrading or will slow down phone.

Not updated.

Considering the price of this app I was surprised to get a message flag up about it which said the application will not be compatible with future versions of IOS and may slow down my phone unless the developer updates the software.

Wonderful

Finally got wat i was looking for. Very helpful. Thanks

Very good app when you get to know how to use it it's very informative the harbour aproaches are very good for the practiceing all in all the app is really good

An excellent app with some missed opportunities

This is a very neat and useful app. It seems a pity that it doesn't stretch to comprehensive cover of the colregs though. The less well known lights such as fishing vessels shooting nets could easily be covered in an extension section. In the learning section the self test function showing lights in the dark is clearly a lazy effort. The lights are just taken direct from the teaching examples, so for instance, for a single white light an answer is given of 'power vessel more than 50m in length from astern' because that is the blacked out example in use. In fact it could be a vessel of any length from astern, a vessel less than 7m, a small vessel at anchor, etc etc. if the effort was made to write a bit more code it could be a brilliant tool.

Lack of information

It needs more information. Doesn't have what I expected it to. Update maybe ?

Irritating attitude to older platforms

I have just reset my iPhone 3G and updated apps only to find that the current version of this app only runs on iPhone 5. What do Imray presume that the many users of older phones are going to do? It would be useful to be able to access the older versions. If I could award zero stars I would!

Well, OK I suppose!

Whilst there is certainly much information presented through this app, overall the diagrams are really disappointing! The app simply fails to make use of screen real estate available on iPads. Hopefully, this will be addressed in a future version!
