I used to easily link to my SimradNSS8 until I updated the app Now I can t link automatically or manually Sailing in the Bahamas now without the use of my iPad as a remote Update latest version says it will work with NSS8 It does not And so far tech support has not been able to help me So now I have a useless GoFree that I bought just 2 yrs ago Final update my error in trying the latest update It does actually work now Thanks Would have been nice if they just acknowledged they had an issue said they were working on it     Used to work no more Arrrggh

Previous Gofree version worked perfectly on my IPhone IPads This update does not detect Simrad MFD even tho the Simrad detects the app Please fix or just republish the older version Today Jan 21 or 22 in NZ this app was updated so that it again works with my Simrad plotter                 Does not detect MFD Fixed captain V40

I downloaded this vaguely named app to my iPhone 6S linked to my new Vulcan 9 chart plotter and it works as advertised even controlling the chart plotter from the phone which is the only enhancement over GoFree that I have found Be aware that the small screen of a phone makes text and finger targets rather small and the image is grainy being just a repeat of the low resolution of the Vulcan Usability on a tablet is much better                 Works now on iPhone Anton2780

This new and improved version does not work with any MFD older than a Zeus 2 That means your NSS NSO Zeus Touch do not work with this And there is no way to go back This is what Navico tech support told me after I upgraded my iPad version of this There s is no way to go back to the old version This version destroyed the functionality of my WiFi system Sorry they say And the description STILL says it works with the older versions of MFD Is this just incompetence Or a way to force an upgrade     Do NOT update your old version GreatKetch

This app used to work when it was called Go Free Now it doesn t work at all My husband has tried communicating with support and they have been no help at all Based on the other comments I see I suspect the app just doesn t work for anyone and and they won t admit it     Doesn t work terrible support BGar3

Prompted to upgrade Managed to get a connection ok but then what Nothing Seriously dangerous software you guys produce So now I get to do anchor watch from the helm tonight rather than remotely your ineptitude knows no bounds and it s clear that you have ZERO regard for the SAFETY of your clients     Not an upgrade a disaster Morsicle

What happened Suddenly app is missing seemingly replaced with a non functional Link What gives If it ain t broke don t fix it SIMRAD PLEASE HELP     GoFree Wifi Link antoniocx

After recent update I lost ability to remote control elite ti App see plotter but cannot connect     It worked before Vol___

I was prompted by the App Store to upgrade from the clunky but working GoFree link software to this Now on my iPhone one of my chartplotters is highlighted in red and the app won t connect On my iPad one chart plotter isn t even listed Broken software Conveniently I m crossing the Atlantic in a week and one of the features of 15 000 dollars worth of gear has been broken by the manufacturer How long has IP networking been in existence An absolute software fail     Terrible non functional software Don t upgrade Falco sailing

Doesn t link to Elite Ti Just looks for connection ad infinitum     Worthless thetwowheeledfish

I think this app intentionally doesn t work     Junk Trg111

Downloaded the app and never found a network     Junk Worktoeat

Downloaded opened then synced My screen on the NSS7 evo 3 displayed on my phone for approx 2 min then nothing Within a few minutes I was unable to connect altogether I then deleted and repeated the entire process to no avail This app needs some attention     Having trouble connecting apple 5SE stillfaded2

Please update this app and unit this is false advertising of a product FIX IT     Cannot use jmull92

Why fix it this app prevents you from purchasing additional units You can buy a used iPad for under 300 vs a 1500 Lowrance unit I would be surprised if they screwed with it on purpose This is the sort of thing that these corporations do that eventually ends there businesses I mean what would it take to fix a freaking app think about it     Why fix it Uticanpioneers

This is a awesome idea but the app does not work at all I really hope they correct the issue because it could be a amazing tool to use PLEASE UPDATE     Wish it worked Brad Kramer

Well this is underwhelming on an iPhone when one s iPhone is only a repeater device This app certainly needs an update and a major one at that     Time to update this app hughmcmillan

I have had many instances of the system unable to find the server Sometimes when I was just using it a few minutes prior Basically a unrealizable piece of hack software In addition the quality of image less than VGA makes you wonder why not go with all IOS native navigation apps Nav icon software engineers should be sent packing     Also failure problems JBR9063

I was thrilled to use this app the first few times I tried it Unfortunately the latest version no longer detects any MFD devices chart plotter etc on our ship s network it just displays Searching Surya s network for MFD displays and spins a little icon endlessly Very very disappointing I hope they update the app to work with the latest MFDs and or iOS updates Until then useless     Hasn t worked since last update zbeckman

I have been using this app a few days now and it seems to be working pretty well I appears a bit more stable too                     Seems to work pretty Good Vhecs

Why just a repeater function on iPhone Does little to no good on small boat If full function works on iPad why not on iPhone         Why Just Repeater Function on iPhone Yahhboyd

Turns your iPad into a secondary chart plotter                     Must have for any SIMRAD chart plotter HappyCrafter
