Extremely poor customer service.
I had used this app for two years with no issues and was very satisfied. I operate in the James and Chicahominy River area of Va. Late Oct 23 while underway I noticed that the area that I had coverage for was now not covered at all. All there was was the background color used for land. I submitted a support request to Wartsila Customer Support. I received a prompt reply, was given a case number, and asked to provide a screen shot of the problem area, which I did. I received a reply Nov 1 thanking me for my picture, and that my issue was forwarded to the cartography dept for investigation. That is where all communications ended. It is now Apr 2024 and I have received nothing from customer support, in spite of sending several e-mails requesting an update. I’m getting ready for this years boating season and am having the same coverage problem in my cruising area. I cancelled my Wartsila subscription and am giving Savvy Navy a try.
United StatesComcast….
is the only other competitor of poor customer service. I have been trying to troubleshoot with wartsila for 3 months now, with multiple emails, calls, and internet inquiries about the Pilot AIS portion of this App not working. I had a response once, but maybe that Daria Petrova went on a 2 week Vacation. Hopefully she isn’t using iSailor to Navigate, because she’ll be on a perpetual 3 hour tour. Essentially, don’t use this or Pilot Pro as a professional application. There isn’t any technical support since wartsila bought transas.
United StatesHelp!
Can somebody please help setup an AIS plug to the iSailor app? I get data from the AIS plug I have (Class A) but the trace log shows it as Red. Another Ship uses the same setup, and it works. Mine does not, and nobody has emailed or called me back. Please help me rectify.
United StatesSailed over 2k miles using this app as primary navigation
Successfully used this app for sailing from Seattle to Alaska and back in 2019. It worked great. It has tons of great features which well worth the price. Too bad there hasn’t been any updates in the last years. Would love to have better integration with newer versions of ipad or more customizable instrument panels
United StatesNo support
Not sure they are still in business. No updates in years and the support site doesn’t work.
United States2.9 stars not deserved
People rated down the app when it get from being able to buy the charts for life to subscriptions and it is fair but this app is still the best navigation app out there, by far.
United StatesLong time user chased away by increasing fees
I’ve been using iSailor since 2013, and have logged well over 10,000 miles with it. The new increases in chart subscriptions are INSANE! Charts that we’re $25 a year for updates are now $99?! If you want detailed info like marina amenities etc it’s even more! I’ll be switching to navionics and getting more bang for my buck. Too bad I really liked this app.

App Store will charge payment after confirmation of the chart correction purchase. You may manage your subscriptions and turn off the auto-renewal service in the Account Settings. If you re-subscribe, your new subscription will be automatically updated at the current price unless you cancel chart update service before the subscription period ends in Settings -> iTunes & App Store -> Apple ID -> View Apple ID -> Account -> Subscriptions. We hope you enjoy this update and improved version of iSailor! Happy sailing!
