Tested the Navionics app for my android and liked the results so far. What I did was snuggle up to a few markers and my position on the map seemed pretty accurate. I also mapped a course and that worked really well. So far I think it's a great app to use as an aid, my real interest is for night navigation and I believe it will work very well to "check" your course on those dark nights. I have not tried it yet but it has a "track" option, my thought is you can track your course to those popular dinner spots and then follow it home once the sun goes down. One thing is I could not see my screen in the sun but that's not a surprise or a big deal for me. For $9.99 I would recommend it to anyone with an android.
