Review summary

Overall, reviews describe a mixed experience. When it runs and charts load, Seapilot can feel like a professional marine tool, especially with external GPS and tuned settings, and some devices even offer free US vector charts and usable weather routing. However, many reports cite startup crashes on various devices and maps that fail to render or show blank areas when panning. Chart access and purchasing frequently fail (invalid vouchers, account hurdles, and refund disputes). Regional chart availability is inconsistent (USA limits, limited Bahamas coverage). UX is hampered by out-of-the-box usability issues and UI quirks.

Pros

Can function as a professional chart plotter when configured with external GPS and tuned settings.
US vector charts are free on some devices.
Weather routing works well.
Some reviewers view it as a usable navigation option for seafarers.

Cons

Startup crashes or the app won’t start on multiple devices (e.g., Pixel 8, Samsung S21).
Maps/charts fail to render properly during panning; off-screen areas stay blank or show black gaps.
Purchasing and access issues, including invalid voucher codes, required account creation to try, and refund problems.
Regional chart availability is inconsistent (USA charts discontinued or limited coverage).
Out-of-the-box usability is poor (menus unusable initially; UI elements obscured by the Android system bar).

2026-06-11	Ju*****	No detail Blocky chart with almost no detail at all in trial version. Tried to look up port of Elgol, but not in database, so of no use at all.

2026-05-18	Gu*****	I love the app for navigation as it has the 6min think vector/arrow indicating speed and direction, thin tracking line, internet AIS, and otherwise a clutter free map, you know that you're not missing anything (more safe regarding zoom levels). Customer support via phone resolved login/account issue after moving to new device.

2026-03-18	Go*****	Unusable from install. I would like to share a screenshot which shows the seapilot app screen controls at the bottom of the page are covered by my android system tool bar. - the menus are unusable out of the box.
