Navionics app for iphone android#
If you’re using an Android phone and want to share your experience with these apps, please drop a comment.Īnd now let’s see what are the best sailing apps: I should probably mention that I’m an iPhone user so my experience is only with the iOS version of these apps. Yeah, you get some fancy animations or graphics, but when you’re interested only in functionality, those don’t matter. I think you can get all the information you need without paying extra. That’s the reason most of the apps I use are free, except Navionics. For example, I always keep OnCourse open when sailing between the Greek islands, where there’s a lot of commercial and ferry traffic. But there are specific situations when I’m happy to happy a certain app. If you ask me, the minimum sailing apps you need are for navigation, wind forecast, and tide. The same goes for most of the other apps on this list. Similar graphics, similar forecasts, similar features…you choose the one you feel more comfortable with. There are dozens who are doing the same thing: give a more or less accurate forecast of the wind. Even though in this list there are some apps I consider to be the best (like Navionics for navigation), the rest are just a few in a sea of options (pun intended). And to be honest, I don’t believe there’s such thing as “best”. Like most sailors out there with a phone, I tried my share of sailing apps before choosing the ones I use on a regular basis. Finding the best sailing apps for me wasn’t easy.
