Both Android and iOS versions exist. It's just a chart plotter app. I have been using it for years, because it is pretty decently featured for the price. Nothing particularly special about it, other than the crowdsourced bathymetry, which is interesting. Apparently you can configure the app to automatically upload your own sounder readings to continually improve the chart resolution beyond the official NOAA / CHS versions.

> Brian, I cant take credit for the navonics app. Sean has it on his phone and shared his wisdom with me.  But its a cool app, and pretty resonable cost for what you get.  I am downloading my routes tonight to manipulate them into a format that works for me. I will share with the group once im finished.
