All versions of the River Thames Guide App (the official British Marine app) have been updated - if you have the app installed from your App Store it will be updated automatically over the next few days; if you are a new user and want to download a version (or you want the self-contained Android version) please go to the support site.
New in this version (17.03):
VERSIONS:
River Thames Guide for iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPod), Android, Amazon - self contained maps (large download but quicker to run)
River Thames Guide Lite for iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPod), Android, Amazon - needs internet connection to run interactive map (smaller download but slower to run).
(if you have plenty of storage on your device then the self contained version is worth the extra install time (the self-contained version is almost 300 Mb compared with about 75 MB for the Lite version because, once installed, it loads and runs more quickly).
Feedback is always welcome as are ideas for new or improved content.
