Aweigh

Slow and when it finally loads inaccurate By the time it has loaded the deed has been done and if you use it for any navigational info be warned Combined with any network issues ( 3 ) you don’t stand a chance, ask the locals do some groundwork and the results will be better Will uninstall almost immediately

Downloaded this a few days ago in preparation for our Broads holiday. Maps would be great…but nothing loads so we can’t do any planning. Tide times wild also be great…but the page simply gets stuck loading. I’ve tried the app on numerous occasions over the past couple of day and these problems continue. This makes the app a complete waste of time.

Useful app to check your location and give you a rough idea of your speed but the speed jumps and varies massively so you can’t tell how long its going to take you to get anywhere. It would be really useful if you could click on a destination and it gave you a rough eta based on current location and speed. Also mooring information is not very helpful - tells you there are free moorings but no indication of quantity available (some only have 3 spaces and others are not free but private so a total waste of time trying to stop there). In the end we just used it to double check where we were but it could be used for so much more.

This app would’ve been great if water refill stations, pump outs and waste disposals locations are included. But they might include this in the future who knows

Been using this app almost all week, unfortunately there are too many problems with it. I lost count how many times the speed either randomly froze or just said speed was 0.0 when I was actually moving ( this would be while it was actively tracking my location so proves that the app had not lost gps signal). There were also times where tide info would be displayed correctly but would then say tide rising when it was still before low tide or tide was falling when we still had not reached the high tide time. When you consider that these are the primary functions of the app, you would expect them to either work properly or have accurate data. I resorted to using printed out charts and info that I did at home before we left for our holiday and then guessed my speed for the week. Such a shame as this could be a very useful app

Really found this app useful. Would love to see it developed for other waterways too.

This app is so helpful brilliant

Been using the app for a year now and would highly recommend it to anyone on the Norfolk Broads whether they are on holiday or a local, regular river user like me. Tide times are brilliant when mooring and planning ahead for a trip where a bridges are involved. Love the new addition of phone numbers on the map bridge markers. Real time bridge heights would be good

Had to time it properly to go over Breydon water and we ended up having broads authority boat telling us we had to turn around because it was high tide when the app told us it was low tide and we couldn’t get under the bridge. Had to cancel a booking a tackle with a pub too. The app gave 3 different times for low tide on 3 different phones. Will never use this app for this again. We have never got it wrong before when using an information map for the broads Updated after developer response: we have been going on the broads for years so know about how the tides work. But we checked the app immediately after crossing breydon water to double check the so called low water times again and it was saying on one phone the water was lowering on the other two phones it was saying it was highering. The times of the low tide were all different. So it is not a case of misunderstanding the app like it has just been claimed by the developer. Fair enough, the app might work very well usually but it certainly didn’t yesterday and I find it highly insulting that it’s suggested it can’t be wrong and we are amateurs when actually I am quite efficient with anything like this.

I have been using the app for the last week on the northern Broads. I haven’t been able to find an alternative which is anything like as useful. However the speed readout needs some attention as, for example, a speed of around 4mph will fluctuate wildly from 0 to over 6, making the 2 decimal places somewhat irrelevant! It would be useful to be able to zoom and rotate the map as another reviewer has mentioned. This is unique and really useful app so I do hope that it will be developed further.
