I upgraded both my iPhone 6S and my iPad Air2 to IOS 11 earlier this week and now my Fishphone no longer works with them.  :-\.  It looks like Vex hasn’t updated the App since IOS 8.  I’m wondering if my 3 y/o FishPhone is now an anchor? >:(  No a happy camper at the moment and will be calling Vexilar CS asap to see if they’re going to update the App to make it compatible with IOS 11.

Sorry for a dumb question, but what is a fishphone?

Ios 11.0.3 here and both the Vexilar app and Navionics seems to be working fine. Maybe try removing the app and reinstalling it if still having trouble. I know some apps that don't handle ios upgrades very well will work better if installed again from scratch.

Thanks guys!  I got it fixed.  Unload and re-load was exactly what Vexilar told me to do!  Their CS is second to none!

Did it help with the crappy video resolution at all? Don't get me wrong, I love my FP - But my friends laugh at me when I tell them how awesome the picture is, and then send them a pixelated video. Does everyone else have that problem? Not sure why they can't get the same resolution that they are showing on the screen applied to the creation of the video!
