IN-APP PURCHASE

After purchasing WinGPS™ Marine you unlock the full features of the app. Check out the various possibilities on www.wingpsmarine.com.

When first installing the app you will get the Lite version of WinGPS™ Marine.

This version is limited functionality. With your GPS (internal or bluetooth) you get the SOG and COG and you will see the current position on your screen.

WinGPS™ Marine is the navigation app that allows true marine navigation on your Android device. In this app you can use the digital nautical charts for route planning with GPS via WIFI or bluetooth. You can also get data from AIS, GRIB meteo and record the tracks you have sailed. Use the built-in "timebar" to see the developments of the wind, rain, air pressure and AIS plotted on the screen.

The WinGPS™ Marine Plus upgrade provides you all the best of the Marine Apps. This advanced navigation app helps you plan routes under every condition. You can connect your board system using a wireless connection and use all this data to your advantage. The worldwide tidal & current predictions can be displayed in the data plotter, and on your chart screen.

CHART COVERAGE & INSTALLING CHARTS

When starting WinGPS™ Marine you will automatically use the free charts of OpenStreetMap. You can also download the free world chart via the chart manager.

For safe navigation you can best use digital water charts which Stentec offers you in the Google Play ™ store or in the online shop on www.stentec.com. When purchasing a chart you get a license code which you can activate on 2 separate machines (with a third backup activation). This enables you to use the charts on your Android device as well as on your laptop/PC.

If you purchased charts using Google Play™, you need to connect them with your account to use them in WinGPS™ Marine. You can do this 2 hours after purchase. If you purchased the charts via www.stentec.com, this will go automatically.

If you login in WinGPS™ Marine, you can select your DKW chart licenses in the chart manager to download and update for use in the app. The charts are immediately ready for use!

Examples of DKW Charts are: Stentec’s DKW charts, UKHO, BSH, Imray, Delius Klasing and the DKW 1800 series with weekly BaZ update service.

On your PC you can download the free BSB charts of for example NOAA. After installation with the DKW Manager, you can copy these charts to your tablet. The easiest way to do this is with a USB cable.

Examples of NOAA/BSB charts are: United States, Brazil, New Zealand, and all charts you create with DKW Builder (scanned charts).
