Description

iNavX brings the freely available, official and up to date NOAA RNC raster United States waters marine charts to your iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. Included detailed chart coverage: West Coast, Gulf Coast, East Coast, Great Lakes, Alaska, Hawaii, and US Virgin Islands.

One app for all your devices with access to thousands of charts: official CHS Canada charts, Navionics Gold charts, Fish'N'Chip charts, HotMaps, NV. Verlag charts, Hilton's fishing charts, Trak Canada lakes fishing maps and Solteknik European waters marine charts may be purchased separately via X-Traverse.

With iNavX you can use the built in location services (i.e. GPS, cell tower, WiFi) to plot your position in real-time on the multi-touch scrolling and zooming and rotating (including course up) marine chart.

Using the iPhone's and iPad's and iPod touch's WiFi connection, iNavX can act as a repeater for popular marine navigation software that supports NMEA data over TCP/IP such as MacENC or Coastal Explorer. This includes GPS, AIS receivers & transponders, and Instruments (Depth, Speed, Wind, Engine, Batteries, etc.)

In addition to real-time chart plotting and printing, iNavX supports waypoints & routes including KML (Google Earth) and GPX import/export, track log, measuring bearing/distance, GRIB weather forecast, tides/currents, anchor alarm and port/navaid search.

iNavX is updated frequently and all updates are provided at no additional expense.

The power of a color chartplotter for a fraction of the cost.

Practical Sailor rated Top Choice Marine Navigation app - February 2012 issue.

NOTE: Detailed Florida Charts are in the NOAA East region included with iNavX.

NOTE: "Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life." This only applies if background track recording is enabled.

Customer Reviews

Great application - response to negative review (5 stars)
With home port of Santa Cruz CA, this app was a life saver. Lost my Raytheon (older system) cursor capability while in heavy fog -switched over to IPAD INAV, set track to waypoints right to harbor entrance. So effective, I have forestalled electronics upgrade this year and will use IPAD INAV for on the go waypoint sets and tracking. Now, to the individual that gave one star because of the screen reset to position... read the operation manual

Really love it (5 stars)
I used this while sailing in the North Channel of Lake Huron last year and on Lake St. Clair this year. It's really great! It does a lot and not unsurprisingly has a learning curve. The complaints seem to be by people who haven't figured out how to use it. It helps to plot your waypoints and make a few routes at home before sailing. While doing so, I emailed their support with questions several times. They always responded quickly and conci

Great system (5 stars)
I originally got this to have redundancy on GPS but like it so much, I prefer this interface to my installed system. The way it integrates with my GPS and auto-pilot is impressive and the app is largely intuitive.
