Navionics app

[Gekhang]

So i was planning on my trip to tonka this weekend and pull up my navionics app on my droid. one thing i noticed was that the contour lines change dramatically. heres a screen shot showing the differences.

notice how much smoother the contour lines change. does anyone have this issue? this seems to start at robinsons bay and goes up to wayzata and grays bay. the rest of the lake seems fine though.

go into your app and re-download the lake. Isolate just the lake you want and you will get better definition. For whatever reason if you try to download a large area your definition is not as good. It ends up being a lot of data.

thanks, ill give it a try.

Also after downloading the lake go into your phones settings > apps > find the Navionics app > select FORCE CLOSE

I found this bug shortly after the app was released and this was the only way I could find to fix it.

[CAMAN]

I found where you are looking and mine looks good --

[Gekhang]

got it, mine works now. thanks!

That app is worth every penny and more!

Is there a list of lakes anywhere that show what are covered? Is Rush Lake on there? thanks. Gps with lakemaster chip went in the drink & do not have $400 to shell out.

[mmartin]

pretty much every lake there is. It is a lot cheaper than having to shell out the cash for all the different lakemap chips for a GPS.

[walleye44]

Cool, thanks.

Is Rush Lake on there?

In 1 foot HD contours to boot!

Buddy just showed me the new version, but his doesn't show the depths for a lot of the lakes. Leech will show all contours but no depths. Anybody else have this problem?

Try turning off any map overlays.

Nice! Do you get free updates to the App too?

Sorry High Jacking the thread. Thanks.

Is there any way to reverse the colors?

I guess I'm used to thinking white = shallower, blue = deeper

[Northlander]

Just got this ap. How do I save waypoints? Can I change the little pin to a fish icon?

[DTro]

Matt, change your safety depth that might work.

Northlander, you can't even post a picture here and you think I'm going to try and explain that?

Just put your crosshairs on your location and push the question mark. Click add to favorites. You can rename, but not sure if you can change the icon.

Do not click edit map. You can save waypoints this way, but it is available to anyone who has community layer turned on. I see a lot of "community holes" marked on various lakes this way.

Sorry but thats dang funny there! LOL

[Northlander]

Ok I guess I was already doing that. I was hoping for a different way. Thanks for the help DTRO. I probably could figure out the picture thing but really dont have a need to too often and have others that will post my pics for me if needed. Thanks again man.

To change the waypoint to a fish icon -

After you hold your finger down on the spot and tap the question mark and have clicked "Add to favorites"... Tap the push pin icon next to the Marker name. It lets you choose between the push pin, a red house, a green fish, or an anchor. You can also change the name of the waypoint.

Not trying to thread jack, but what app are you guys using for the screenshots?

[zeke7434]

Is there a way to save this app to a micro sd card on my phone? Sorry just got an app friendly phone and have no idea how to use it.

Thanks.

On an iPhone you press the 'home' and screen shut off buttons at the same time. You'll hear the camera sound and it will save the screenshot in your camera roll.

I have the HTC inspire and its tough to see he screen out side in the daylight what do you guys use as a filter or what do you shade the screen with
