Frequently
Asked Questions
Q: Can I purchase the Navionics charts from a source other than
X-Traverse.com for use with iNavX?
A: No. Only genuine Navionics charts, subscribed to from www.x-traverse.com
are compatible with iNavX. Charts on Navionics Plug-and Play media will
not work. Charts purchased from iTunes as part of the Navionics Viewer
App will not work.
Q:
Can I use this Navionics chart region with iNavX for the iPad?
A: No. Navionics have set different pricing for charts used on
the larger screen of the iPad. To use Navionics charts on iPad, purchase
the iPad specific version of this Navionics region.
Q:
Can I use the charts included with my Navionics Mobile App in iNavX?
A: No. Because of the way that the Apple Apps are designed and bundled,
it is not possible to utilize the charts from one App in another App.
Q:
Can I use the Navionics charts subscribed to from X-Traverse.com in another
product, such as Fugawi Marine ENC, MacENC or a Navionics compatible plotter?
No. These Navionics charts from X-Traverse.com are only compatible with
the iNavX App when running on an Apple iPhone, iPod touch or iPad. For
other purposes, such as dedicated chart plotters, you must purchase
the Navionics charts on official Navionics Plug-and-Play media such
as CF or SD card.
Q:
Are Navionics charts available in regions or entire continents?
A: Navionics charts for iNavX are available in regions.
Q:
What is the $10 X-Traverse Data 12-Month Account, and can I purchase Navionics
charts without paying this fee?
The X-Traverse Data 12-Month Account is $10 for a 12-month subscription.
It allows for general access to your X-Traverse.com account as well as
transferring waypoints and tracks between iNavX on your iPhone or ipod
touch and your X-traverse.com account. Also, from iNavX you may request

Fugawi
Marine ENC or MacENC
users can also transfer waypoints to and from their PC or Mac navigation
software to iNavX via X-Traverse.com (no cables!). The X-Traverse 12-Month
Account is a requirement for subscribing to Navionics charts for use with
iNavX. With one $10 fee, you can subscribe to as many Navionics regions
as you wish.
Q:
Which software products may I use to plot waypoints for use in iNavX?
A: The latest version of any of the following products may be used: Fugawi
Marine ENC, Fugawi
Global Navigator, Navionics
HotMaps Explorer, Navionics
NavPlanner2, Geonav
MapMapster, GPSNavX
or MacENC.
Additionally, waypoints may be created with any software application which
supports GPX or KML format and uploaded to your iNavX software using your
web browser.
Q:
Are other maps and charts available for use in iNavX?
A: Yes. iNavX comes with free access to the complete set of NOAA Raster
Navigational Charts® (NOAA
RNC). Other select charts are available via subscription from X-Traverse.com.
Q.
Why should I choose Navionics charts if I already have coverage from the
NOAA RNCs?
A: The choice is yours. However the Navionics charts are generally clearer
to read at varying zoom scales and many people prefer the "look and
feel" of the crisp and clear Navionics charts. For salt water regions
outside of the coastal U.S. or its territorial waters, there are no NOAA
RNC charts. The Navionics HotMaps charts of U.S. freshwater lakes are
the industry "gold standard" with the widest coverage and exclusive
high-definition 1' contours for select lakes from Navionics' own on-the-water
surveys.
Q:
How do I report missing information for the Navionics chart?
A: Navionics encourages users of all its products to submit feedback regarding
any discrepancies that may be found to ensure that their products are
the best and most accurate available. Your feedback counts! Help to make
Navionics products even better. Click
here to submit your findings.
Q:
How much storage space will iNavX plus the Navionics region(s) consume?
A: It varies depending on the region you download, but is typically 100-400MBs.
However iNavX permits you to download one, many or all of the individual
maps which make up a region. An individual map file may be between 5 MB
and 90 MB but are typically around 10 to 20 MB.
Q:
For how long can I utilize the Navionics charts which I subscribe to from
X-Traverse.com?
A: You may retain the Navionics region indefinitely. However it is only
licensed for use on two supported devices, owned by you. When you make
your first download to an iPhone, the map regions is effectively locked
to that iPhone. When you synchronize your iPhone with iTunes (and provided
you have enabled synchronization of the iNavX App), all Navionics charts
you have downloaded are also synchronized as a backup to your PC or Mac
and can be restored at a later date should you need to re-flash or upgrade
your iPhone firmware. In addition, X-Traverse.com guarantees to retain
the Navionics regions you subscribed to for up to two years after your
purchase. Therefore you may re-download any map within any subscribed
region as many times as you like (onto the same iPhone) for up to 2 years,
provided you maintain an active X-Traverse Data Account.
Q:
Does iNavX run on the first generation iPhone?
A: Yes, but instead of using GPS positioning, cell towers are triangulated
to compute a location (generally not as accurate as GPS).
Q: Does iNavX run on the iPod touch?
A: Yes, but instead of using GPS positioning, NMEA data from
a navigation application running on a Mac or PC via the WiFi connection
must be used to determine location. Alternatively, purchase a GPS
Cradle.
Q:
Will iNavX run on other non-Apple smart phones?
A: No.
Q:
Is iNavX manufactured by Fugawi Software?
A: No.iNavX is an independent application manufactured by GPSNavX.
Q:
Is there an iNavX user guide?
A: Yes, it is here: www.inavx.net/help/
