Last updated
Aqua Map pairs offline charts with route planning on-device. Downloaded chart regions, saved routes with waypoints, track logs, and markers persist locally with account sync for the important half. Marine points of interest overlay the charts.
That makes login the migration for routes with chart packs as the errand. Exact folder names may vary by version. Keep paper charts for serious passages; phones die at the worst moments. Depth shading warns shallows early. ActiveTrack records every voyage automatically.

Frequently asked questions
How do I download offline charts?
Open chart management and download each cruising region over WiFi before departure. Charts consume serious space, so prune old regions afterward. Routes survive chart deletion since they store separately.
Do routes transfer to a new phone?
Yes for routes and markers on login. Offline chart packs rebuild per region on the new phone. Anchor alarms need the app running with location allowed.
