One of the leading navigation apps just got better - Aqua Map released version 20. This update provides fasting scrolling to the previously slow rendering of charts along with a new charting engine.
Other updates and features to help make boating easier include:
- Active Captain Community and Waterway Guide crowd sourced data displays.
- The Master add-on displays Army Corps of Engineers survey data (the only app or marine hardware to do so)
- A WiFi connection to display depth, location and AIS, and Route Explorer to alert you to bridges, hazards, marinas and fuel along your route.
In previous versions scrolling frequently resulted in the chart view rendering one tile at a time. Depending on zoom level and the number of chart features this could result in significant lag.
The new version does require re-downloading all your charts so make sure you’re somewhere with good internet connectivity.
