★★★★★A Google user· Dec 12, 2016
Works as advertised. Getting pro version
★★☆☆☆A Google User· Aug 10, 2014
Dev wants money... only 3000 data points parsed. Less than an hour tracks can be displayed.
★★☆☆☆Colin Stepney· Mar 26, 2025
Logs NMEA location but won't log depth. My OpenVPN logs depth just fine on my Wi-Fi gateway, but this app won't do it.
★☆☆☆☆Ryan Hurst· Jan 13, 2023
Will not allow usage unless you permit all the time access. I only want while using the app but that is not an option so this app is immediately suspect. Delete it ASAP.
