Bizer Navigator

I've been a lifetime boater on Lake Winnipesaukee and have always used the Bizer navigation charts. This app seems like a natural extension to be able to use my iPhone with the recognized name. We have found it very helpful for navigating around the lake, but there are improvements that it needs. Honestly, I was hoping that those improvements would've been done over the winter, but they remain to be seen. which makes you wonder about the viability of this app long-term if the company is not dedicating development resources to improving the user experience. You absolutely need to be able to save routes, which this app cannot do at this point. There's also no night mode, this is a big hindrance for using your phone for navigating at night because it destroys your night vision. Additionally, there's no way to change the orientation of the map while you're navigating. Many modern GPS apps allow you to choose showing north or the route at the top of the map, there is no option for this. I call this a good first effort, but like I said, it absolutely needs development resources for improvement.

Grateful to have an online map of Lake Winnipesaukee. Easy to add in waypoints to get destination routes. Very helpful to have in Moultonborough area where there are many rocks!

Ask any veteran laker and they will tell you not to go out on the lake without the Bizer navigator chart with you. I have found that this is the ONLY app that will show you where the unseen hazards are on the big lake. Other apps might show you where the black and red markers are, but I love that this app knows not to send you through dangerous areas like between pitch wood and stone dam island or between barndoor and little bar door islands. Great app! I won’t go on the water without it!

How small can you make the typeface that explains the *only* lake in the entire Interlakes region that the app covers is Lake Winnipesaukee???? And apparently you can bury that fact pretty deep in the App Store description!!! Newfound Lake? Squam Lake? This is slimy and I want my money back.

I used this today and the map did nor change when I traveled beyond the map view. I had to move the map myself. The developer responded with instructions! Click on the finger for compass mode I love having a GPS on my beloved Bizer map. Now all we need is tracking and night mode!!
