Feedback on Use of Smart Devices Needed
We need your feedback!
Do you use your smart phone or other smart device for navigating on the water? Is there a specific app you prefer? The NJ Department of Environmental Protection is considering developing an application for smart devices that highlights sensitive areas in Barnegat Bay and your help is appreciated.

Re: Feedback on Use of Smart Devices Needed
The best 10$ I ever spent was getting the navionics app for my iPhone - its got great detail and gives you a wireless,handheld, and also a redundant system...
Highly reccomend it! And a waterproof case...

Re: Feedback on Use of Smart Devices Needed
I like the Navionics app as well. Don't use it that often on the boat but it is nice to know you have it if you need it.
IMHO - Not sure if people are doing to install a standalone app on their phone that tells them about sensative marine areas unless there are some other benifits to the app... Tides, marine forcasts, maps etc.
