Did anyone actually test this? Totally worthless. Also, why can we not connect over Wifi when all devices are on the same network? Connecting to the MFD’s Wifi has no network connectivity. On a connected yacht, it’d be nice to remain connected.

Set up this app and my MFD to connect by WiFi, but the app continues to say it cannot find my MFD. Raymarine technician says I did everything correctly, so puzzled why it wasn’t hooking up. But as an earlier reviewer remarked, once the app cannot find the MFD, there is no way to get it to stop looking. The only choice is to REPEAT the search. I tried to stop it by shutting my iPhone down, but when I restarted the phone the app was still searching. Deleting the app from my homepage did nothing, and deleting it completely did nothing; it is still “in the cloud” and when it comes back it is still in search mode. Presumably this would prevent me from trying to hook up by Bluetooth, which one must do in order to use the app while sailing and away from your WiFi. After reading earlier reviews, it appears the app is useless anyway, since you cannot both see the chart and the controls simultaneously (I can’t vouch for this since I can’t get that far.) Save yourself the grief of trying to get it to work.

There is no way to close this app once it’s opened, you have to reboot your phone. Perhaps it has never been updated to work with a newer iPhone that doesn’t have a home button.

On an iPhone this is only good as a mirrored device. On an iPad it is better but drops the connection if you minimize the app to switch over to weather or something else. Just give us an update please!

Agree completely with the previous review. For example, I can view the screen and see AIS traffic, but I can’t pull up AIS info without leaving the flying bridge and using the MFD. It is clear that Raymarine’s main interest is to sell me another overpriced MFD.

If the app doesn’t find your mfd, it’s locked in a loop of “do you want to retry?” There is no “no” option and no swiping up to force-quit the app. You have to do a hard restart of your phone. How did Raymarine or even apple let this get through?

I mistakingly recently purchased several Raymarine products for my 36' sailboat, after using this app it's horrendous. Called the manufacture in January they said "a brand new working app would be released within weeks" Still no app update in 5 months. The worst marine navigation equipment manufacture bar none. Support is useless and they even lie. I will never purchase another raymarine product!

This used to be a decent app allowing some control and views remotely. Now view of map screen only with no remote control (that works anyway). Please fix/update Raymarine.

This is an absolutely useless app. You can either view, or you can control (kind of), but not both. When I switch to the remote control I can’t see the screen, and therefore have no idea where I am in the menu system or what I’m selecting. If I’m close enough to the main unit to see the screen then why wouldn’t I just use the main unit? The whole point is to be able to be in a different location on the boat and use my iPhone to access the features. I’d have to set everything up on the flybridge and then use the view were in the cabin helm, but if I ever needed to zoom in or change any setting I’d have to walk up to the flybridge. Ridiculous.

I've been using this ap now for almost a year. I have an E127. To date, I've had no freezes or inoperative moments. This is a VERY stable interface. The initial setup went pretty smooth with my Iphone 5. Initially go into plotter and turn in wifi and set up the particulars. Then, you just have to tell the plotter that you want to use the RAY Remote. After that then go into wifi and grab plotters network. Launch the program on the phone and, boom!
