★★★★★ "Bad Programming. Bugs, terrible updates are the theme. I paid a fortune to have sensors installed by my Beneteau dealer. Now, I can’t even see the data or it is reported wrong. This system was a total waste of money. Beneteau ripped me off." - RunsWithBoner

Notifications
Still won’t clear out notifications. I still read that I have three notifications even with another update. The app has so many bugs that you’ll want to delete if you can’t stand looking at notifications with no way to clear them.
Still not working….
Very disappointing to pay a for “Premium” subscription for this app and have it give me bad or no information. The NMEA fuel level and engine hours have now stopped updating. Also, the location alert is not functioning and I’m still not able to clear old alerts. Application support button on the Apple website links to French language - useless.
Did you hire the fired Sonos software engineers?

Bad Programming

Doesn’t Work
Horrible app. Once your free subscription ends and then you pay the $229 fee, it no longer works or shows any of your sensors. There are no easy instructions anywhere to figure out how to reset it. There are a lot of theories, but nothing seems to work. This app and devices are ridiculous.
New Version is filled with errors
Sensors wrong, trips not recorded. Was this update tested before release?
New Update has huge regressions
It’s lost my travel history over the last year, doesn’t have the most useful feature - anchor alarm, doesn’t show the past and current alerts.
They also make you set up a new account with no notice or warning.
The new app looks really nice but it’s not ready and should not have been released yet.

New version not working
The new version sends alerts but they don’t show on the app and no way to remove the badge notification on iPhone.
No good at all
App does not work with new boat that was installed on new Jeanneau. No communication, no help. Good thing it is free for the 1st year. Do not pay for it! Update 2026 the developer just contacted me after 1 year, thank you for proving my point.
Yikes! Doesn’t work and No support! Can I get my money back?
Yikes! Bought my boat pre-owned and this was transferred to me. Sounded great so I paid $109 for the year. Turns out the geo location is wrong, NMEA sensors are all “off” - and no support option anywhere to be found. The support link in the AppStore actually links to the french (!) website where they promote the unit (Does anyone at Apple check these links?) Yikes! I think this was a really bad choice….
Unreliable
This is my third year with seanapps. The only thing that works reliably is the battery voltage monitoring and the geofence alerts. NMEA data is unreliable, I haven’t gotten any updates in month. The automatic trip recording is nice but since the last app update you can’t seem to end a trip in the app. I’m reluctant to pay for this season.
New version is horrible
I just paid over $200 to renew my free subscription 10 days ago and open the app today and everything is changed. I can’t read my full battery voltage it just says 12…. Alerts are missing, half my trips don’t show the chart. What a bait and switch. I want my money back.
