Last updated
Navionics pairs account routes with device charts. Your login holds subscriptions, routes, and synced tracks. The phone holds chart regions and sonar maps privately for offline water use.
Menu downloads view shows pack state per region. Stock file managers reveal little of the private area. For moves, sign in covers routes while charts need fresh downloads. Export device only markers as GPX before wiping. Expired subscriptions hide premium layers even with old tiles still cached. Check the in app storage readout when sizes look wrong on different releases.
