Can the Android Navionics app be set up to continuously display lat/lon, etc? I’ve seen a picture of it done online somewhere but cannot get my UK mapped version to show the navigation information.
If it cannot display nav data, is there an android app that you can recommend instead, that shows the basics?
 
"GPS Status" is a free Android App that shows lat, long, speed, heading, altitude, pitch, roll, compass, sat status etc.

OpenCPN with the "dashboard" plugin shows Lat, Long, speed etc on the PC, not sure if the plugin is available for android.

It seems very strange to me but there is a complete lack of information on what the Navionics app can and cannot do. I use it on my phone, but have never really understood its capabilities, mostly as a result of this lack of a comprehensive user guide. My hunch is that it will overlay speed over ground over the display, but not lat/long, though I'd love to be proved wrong on that one.
 
Gps essentials is one of the best android gps apps show all lat long height sog cog compass sattlits plus a lot more
Good idea, I already have that on my 'phone though tend not to use it for navigation so I'd forgotten about it. I don't know why I didn't think of it for loading onto a tablet alongside the Navionics app.
