SEAiq App Reviews

It does nothing free, not intuitive on chart loading. Everything is an upgrade. Useless as a free app. Less than one star.....

I dont know what to say but I use seaiq just about every day and have garmin and navionics on my iPad as well. All the other chart plotter apps seem like toys to me, SeaIQ is the app for the serious navigator.

I heard this was a good iPad platform to view and see your vessels position on downloaded google maps/charts? There are multiple variations to download, and it is not clear about the differences between them? It always asks you to upgrade for more money, but does not explain what you are getting. Worse, it doesnt just upgrade your version, you download yet another Ap. So if you already installed charts on one version, you then need to reinstall the same charts again... This Ap needs a lot of work to make it user friendly.

Ive used this app for two years and I love it! Its been continuously updated well supported and very capable. It includes AIS, Tides, Active Captain Support, plus excellent routing and nav facilities. An exceptionally useful feature is wind overlays and the ability to query weather buoys for current wind speed and direction info. Over all the best buy on the market!

I have been using SeaIQ for 2 years now. It was used to sail from fort Pierce to the Bahamas loading all Explorer charts (Raster). Then later loading all my vectors charts used on OpenCPN we sailed from the Bahamas to Cayman, Guatemala. Just had some issue with some S-63 charts - but I have the same issue with OpenCPN. The app is very intuitive and easy to learn. We are using it more now than our laptop and as a substitute to our Navionics chartplotter where some charts are unreliable. So far it is the best app for navigation.

Loaded up my Vector maps and worked on the first try!

Have used a lot of navigation programs on laptops. Use mostly CM93 charts of the world, using Open CPN on the laptop sailing all over the world. If SEAiq no longer supports CM93 charts, well when I loose the version that works I will no longer use SEAiq. That was a LOT of money to waste for no support. S/V Selah

CM93 users, dont buy or update to this version.

To all CM93 users, dont buy or update to this version.?.?.?

The first app that REALLY does it for me. It has evrything you need to navigate safely and what is best...it is 99 percent effective MINUS the internet. For my taste, any app that needs internet connectivity to function has no place on board. The ONLY feature that requires internet is for REAL TIME weather access but....minus internet you can still download your gribs via SSB and overlay them onto the chart so you still have full functionality. From the very first minutes of using this app I was convinced that the author if the app actually has a boat that leaves the dock. The guy that wrote this actually knows how to navigate. Great job.
