Google Nexus 7 & Raster charts

[st599]

The trouble is that the Google shop will tell you that it's incompatible with the Nexus 7 and won't let you buy it!

He said he side loaded it. I.e. bought it on another device, then copied the installer across.

I was going to take a few screenshots to show the Navionics but now it crashes every time I try to open it on the Nexus 7.

The first it runs, it works fine, but after that, it doesn't open until you delete the navionics folder on the internal memory - obviously Navionics have a bit more work to do to get this sorted.

I used the Astro backup from another tablet, DropBox upload/download and install to new tablet, method to put the Navionics UK&Holland HD version on my Nexus 7. That has been working for a few days so far without any problems.

@markdj: are you using the HD version (~£50) or the phone version (~£25)? I'm wondering if there's a compatibility issue...

Revenge of the iPad!

After 15 years of being a Mac fan and listening to 'sorry, it doesn't work on Macs' or 'it will work if you run a Windows emulatation programme' Apple is top dog!
And the late Steve Jobs still has more charisma than Bill Gates.

Mind, it doesn't excuse Navionics' appalling approach to after sales service.

Hurricane (heavily into this stuff) recommends MMTracker over Memory Map. Thread here.

Looks like MMTracker may have a problem...
"if you are looking for MM Tracker in Google Play and can not find it, it is because it was removed by request of Mr. Ray Badminton from Memory-Map.

Here the content of his claim:
