★★☆☆☆Red screen
The last update has left the screen red. I can't see any of the menus and I paid way too much for this app. Please fix or let me download again. Don't purchase until this red screen problem is fixed.
★★★★★Just AMAZING!!
This is the app that I've recommend for all mariners! No more manual methods!! Just easy way... Thanks.!!
★★★☆☆Good app with room for improvement
After making the decision to purchase this rather expensive application I appreciate many of its abilities, True Wind, Sunrise/Sunset, Body ID, etc. but it doesn't have an apparently easy Azimuth/Amplitude function which is one of my most frequent practices in celestial navigation. If this is added in a later version I will amend this comment.
One bug for iPhone 5 are the buttons at the bottom don't work. Tried removing the app from recent app memory and then rebooting. Did not help. Hopefull
★★★★★Best in class
As a professional US navy navigator I've used this app daily for at least 7 years. First on a TI89 calculator, then on iPhones starting with a 4s when that was new. Now on a 7 Plus.
Makes my work easier and would be lost without it. The U/I may not be as polished as an app from Apple but it certainly does the job.
Have never had a single crash or malfunction. Paid once for the app years ago and have benefited from regular updates.
It is the only Nav app I recommend to other officers and cadet
★★★★★iCloud Syncing
Overall great tool. Would be great if you could sync the Sight Archive to the cloud so that sights entered on iPhone could be accessed from iPad or vice versa.
