[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 466000, member: 21536"] I use Navionics charts on my Hummingbird fish finder. The coverage and contour accuracy is terrific. They also offer an app that can be used on smart phones (I'm positive they are one among many that offer this type of app). I know at least one TB member (Rich99) used it so if he sees this maybe he can weigh in. There was a thread here on TB last year discussing the use of smart phones for gps. Some folks say it was hard to see on their smart phones in sunlight. On the Navionics website (Navionics.com) you can download their Chartviewer and check out the coverage for your lakes & rivers. I have it on my MacBook favorites and frequently use it to scope out a lake for "fishy" looking spots. Anyway, here is a link to that thread I mentioned above: https://tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=45019&p=452594&hilit=gps#p452548 Edit: When I see links to Amazon, or other sales sites in those "Top 5" or "Best of" reviews I start to question how impartial or objective the review really is. Unfortunately, those seem to be all too common when Googling product "reviews". [/QUOTE]
