Not what it used to be
Hard to access after you've paid , then they want more $ for extra features. Shame because it used to be awesome.

Typical Garmin Takeover
Garmin messes up everything they touch! I had a Lowrance Airmap 300 and they bought out Lowrance Aviation, and disbanded the product just to increase the price of their portable Aviation GPS. Now they buy out Navionics and they've increased its price and decreased the quality. I absolutely despise Garmin. I'm switching to Argo Nav. They're cheaper and have more bells and whistles!

Not good for sailboats
After three years on support cases they did not find a solution on gps accuracy. Going slower than 5KT red triangle jumps randomly and reads bad position. We tried on different iPhones without success with the same results. Not useful and sometimes dangerous.

Too expensive for small period of using
Imagine paying 50€ for an app to use it 20 days. Good app, but not plans for 1 month.

You deleted the maps on my device!
It is unacceptable. You have deleted the maps from my device that I paid for last year. I don't need any update on them, I don't need every year an update.
