iRegatta

The App is fundamentally very good however I struck an unexpected annoying surprise with the NMEA data extension that I purchased (regatta+N, version 4.07 Android version with regatta NMEA extension). The tablet I am using has internal GPS and internal compass which I wanted to use with regatta. I have separate Wind and Speed instruments and set up a NMEA 0183 to Wi-Fi gateway to transmit the following NMEA sentences to the tablet and regatta App: - VHW Speed through water. - MWV Apparent Wind Direction and Speed. I was hoping to use these NMEA signals in addition to the internal GPS and compass to provide the full set of inputs for regatta. However, under regatta Settings - NMEA Input - Choose Instrument Data Source; there are only 4 available selections: - Internal GPS - Bluetooth NMEA - Wi-Fi TCP NMEA - Wi-Fi UDP NMEA If Wi-Fi (TCP or UDP) NMEA is selected regatta stops using the internal GPS data. The internal compass continues to be used. If using NMEA data, the only solution presently to obtain GPS appears to be that you need to install an external GPS with NMEA output. I am resigned to having to go ahead and do this and unfortunately will need to drop the Speed Through Water data as my Wi-Fi Gateway only has two NMEA ports.

Used to love it Not compatible with lollipop due to Wi-Fi issues. Lollipop won't connect to a Wi-Fi network if there is no Internet connection.

Nag ware in middle of race start countdown! Started nagging me to do in-app purchases *during* a start countdown, and then paused the clock with no way to resume.
