Re: Weather Routing

After all qtVlm is a far better software than OpenCPN especially for users with Apple devices because it supports macOS as well as iOS. OpenCPN does not support iOS and so cannot be used for iPhones...

Re: Recommend a gps puck for an m1 mac

I recommend the Dual XGPS160 especially made for Apple. It is feeding 5 devices simultaneously and offers GNSS as well as Glonass.

Re: Open Cpn on iPad 11pro

Use qtVlm instead, it works for iOS and macOS.

Even the macOS version of OpenCPN lacks of support for Apple devices. It will give a warning during installation.

Re: Questions for Mac users

bdbcat will have less problems with OpenCPN for macOS when he switch to Qt from the actually wxWidgets. So he will even be able to produce a version for iOS (iPhone and iPad).

Re: OpenCPN Version 5.8.2 Released

Why are 24 platforms needed? I know only 5 common platforms: Windows, Linux, Android, macOS and iOS. And there is no version for iOS available!
Where are the other 20 platforms come from?
