AngelNav is a brand new app for iOS developed in collaboration with Tom Cunliffe. Primarily it is a full chart plotter currently favouring raster charts, but it has many additional features including the ability to carry out traditional navigation directly on the screen.
The capacity to generate classical chart work is vitally important in the event of a GPS failure, but hitherto has required pencil, plotters, and paper charts. AngelNav allows traditional techniques to be carried out using an iPad or iPhone screen instead of a paper chart. An estimated position can be plotted, position lines drawn from sighted bearings and fixes recorded. Course-to-steer diagrams are readily constructed.
AngelNav can read most types of raster chart including the UKHO subscription charts, as well as KAP/BSB files and GeoTIFF files. Like its sister application for macOS, AngelPilot, it can easily create and read its own satellite charts.
AngelNav can take satellite navigation data from a variety of sources, including the device's stand-alone GPS, the boat's NMEA over WiFi, and SignalK. It will also display AIS information if available.
Annual subscriptions are available as in-app purchases for UKHO charts covering the whole of the UK. These are divided into 8 folios so that you can subscribe only to the charts that you need.
The app is free to use in its basic form, with additional functions and charts available as in-app purchases. This allows a user to fully evaluate the app without charge, and then to purchase the features and charts required.

Die App ist in Sonderverwaltungsregion Hongkong noch nicht bewertet.
Downloaded the App, bought the KAP plugin and the Imray ID50 (Western Med) only to discover there is no clickable main chart, so you have to scroll through reams of charts in order to find the correct chart. I would have thought that linking the charts, like in OpenCPN would be a relatively easy thing to do for a coder. Staying true to printed charts is one thing, adding extra functionality on top of that would have been a real bonus.
Tidal heights and flows
In a recent update to Angelnav tide tables and streams have been added. This is a fantastic addition to and already great product.
Good app, great support!
Getting to grips with how it works over the season and really starting to like it. Route planning is very easy to do and subsequently follow.
Had an issue with AIS not working, but response from support was fantastic.
Learnt about some upcoming developments, which I’m really looking forward to, as this would make this 5 star and a real contender for similar apps.
Definitely ‘getting there’
Have used this extensively over about 2,500 miles of cruising around UK & Ireland alongside other navigational programs. It enables you to keep your traditional skills up to date without paying a fortune (and finding space for) a plethora of paper charts. It provides an immediate back up to your MFD and once you make the effort to understand how to switch between charts it’s all rather simple. However, accessing tidal diamonds to plan a long passage (particularly with cyclical tides) is a pain; it would be great if the developer could make this easier with perhaps animated tides *in addition* to providing the basic info. Such a mod would make it worth 5+ stars.
AngelNav
This is an excellent navigational app. Has all the features of traditional nav techniques but able to use in a modern way. Excellent for planning trips. Once one learns all it features and how to handle the charts it will become your go to app for navigation. One can also use the features without resorting to reading glasses!

Interesting app
I see the very useful potential here of using trad nav on electronics, I get it. However I have the Memory Map app which I purchased to use the excellent Antares Charts. I recall that it was a requirement to purchase the Admiralty charts to make Antares work, though I don’t recall the detail. I don’t want to purchase the Admiralty charts twice so I backed up the charts from MemoryMap to another folder and set AngelNav to use this folder for chart data - but it seems that AngelNav won’t read these chart files. Any ideas?
I like the look of this but…
This looks like a really interesting app. Unfortunately the base map is just a blur. It would be helpful to have a time limited sample map (of my area) to evaluate whether this works for me.
Although Navionics (and others) offer a cheaper way to get map coverage the reality is that most of us don’t move that far from our cruising areas and the cost of a folio is pretty reasonable given the additional detail.
One question: Is it possible to sync routes etc. with chart plotters or other apps?
Small scale passage charts?
The introductory information indicates that folio BF1 includes passage charts (eg Isle of Wight to Cap de la Hague) but they seem to be missing
Unsure
I’d like to be able to try this app out with a chart for a trial before committing to buying one.
Location while using app
Looks like a useful bit of software
but
I selected find location ‘While using app’
unfortunately it doesn’t turn off location when you stop using the app
I had to go into ‘settings’ and the app and turn the setting to ‘never’ to get the blue location notification to go away
I posted this here because I couldn’t see any option to report bugs
I’m sure it will get fixed when the developer clicks on the correct box in the appropriate object 😵💫
