Une application idéale pour les rares navigateurs qui savent encore utiliser un sextant.
Perfect and good support
It works perfectly. I had a problem with the interpretation regarding the Ha value, inputing Hs, IE and HoE. However, Navimatics gave me immediate support. It deserves 5 stars compared to other similar Apps I have bought in vain.
Taugt gar nichts
Absolut unbrauchbar
Bella!
Ottima e facile da usare
Field ready and practical to use
First, my comments are based as a Prof Mariner w/ 18 years of ocean sailing, Academy grad, and current Cel Nav Teacher. Out of the box this app is easy to use, pages are laid out great. Data entry is easy to enter. Use the help section first and you have no problems, even though I went staight into it, it corrected the few wrong entries I made (on purpose), such as Lat & Long number configurations. Use the app in class to check USCG problems. Some differances found with resulting intercept distances, but explainable and sensible based on assumed DR Lat or DR Lat with course and speed. Initially had low memory problem on iP4, but Navimatics Tech support staff returned email off of their web site in less than 24 hours, answered question and apologized, what more can you ask for? I did not use TRIP page function, so can not comment on this page. Txt can be a bit small on iP4, but hey, screen is small, bet this app is awesome on iPad. I have a few more suggestions to send them to make the app more informative, such as the ability to add Zone Discription and have Zone Time displayed in Sight and Almanac pages, but trival issues. Only major addition I would like to see our SAILINGS, but only practical field use ones; Parrellel, Mercator and Great Circle Dist & Initial Course and Lat/Long Vertex points along GC route. I highly recommend this app. A bit pricey, yes, but I feel worth it compared to a Nav Calculator or cost per hour doing cel nav reductions long hand in the field.
Finally
Im a professional mariner and have been looking for an app for celestial navigation for a long time. This seems likes good start, I hope some updates will include sailings and compass correction. Although a little pricey, its nothing compared to the $80 app. I gladly took a chance downloading this app, and so far looks good. Im a big fan of celestial navigation and I hope for generations to come this art will be passed on. Now that my cadet days are over, and Im in the world of coastwise tankers I try to do celestial whenever possible to keep my skills toned. I cant wait to try out the app and compare to my long handed calcs.
Basic
Pretty much basic. Should make controls more user friendly and add GPS input for time, LAT & LONG as an option. Lacks sight planner and basic navigational mathematics like rhumb line and great circle sailing. No option for imperial/metric input.
