Marine Instrument Display WiFi allows you to create/follow/transfer routes, track your path, control autopilot, receive/store/forward NMEA0183 data over WiFi and see AIS targets on the map. Send/receive data through iCloud (e.g. remote anchor alarm).

MID WiFi also features the worlds first autopilot remote controller app for Apple Watch.

* = Internal GPS or NMEA-WiFi bridge required
** = NMEA-WiFi bridge required (e.g. Vesper Marine XB-8000 and WatchMate Vision, Simrad GoFree WIFI-1, RS232-WiFi, Digital Yacht iAIS/WLN10, ShipModul MiniPlex-2/3Wi, Pilotstech PilotPlug, iMux, Ockam LANbridge)

WIND VIEW
- Shows Apparent and True Wind Angles simultaneously
- Size of the blue sector indicates the variation in wind direction
- Red dot shows the BTW

MAP VIEW
- AIS targets (**
- Create and follow routes
- Transfer routes on NMEA
- Create and replay tracks
- Autopilot control (Raymarine, requires MiniPlex-3Wi)
- Share the tracks by email (GPX, NMEA)
- Access stored NMEA data via iTunes File Sharing

ALARMS
- Depth (Deep, Shallow)
- Anchor (Deep, Shallow, Distance)
- Wind (AWA/TWA/AWS/TWS High/Low, TWD Shift)

HOW TO USE
- Tap the SET to enter the Settings page
- Tap the value of any field to cycle through the color modes
- Tap/swipe the title of any field (such as TIME) to select the data to the field
- Tap a unit to cycle through the unit modes
- Tap the unit (°) of the heeling (HLG) to calibrate (zero angle)
- Press the value of any field at least two seconds to reset the TIME, ASOG, MSOG and TRIP
- Rename a route or a track by tapping the name of it
- Use IP address 255.255.255.255 for the UDP broadcast/multicast. The port for Simrad GoFree discovery is 2050 or 2052, 5000-5010 are for Ockam LANbridge and 55554 for SailTimer Wind Vane.
- Use 127.0.0.1 and port 55554 for SailTimer Wind Instrument
- NMEA0183 data can be forwarded as UDP multicast to other devices

- The trip time runs while moving (SOG > 0)
- The COG is shown while moving (SOG > 0) (internal GPS)

COUNTDOWN TIMER
- Configure the start time (1 - 30 minutes) by touching the SET to enter the Settings view
- Start/sync the timer by touching the "sync"
- Stop the timer by touching the "sync" at least two seconds
- The timer beeps every minute and when 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0 second(s) are remaining

CALIBRATION
1. The back cover must be faced forward accurately in order to get the correct compass heading.
2. Mount the iPhone/iPad securely and make sure it cannot move accidentally to ANY direction.
3. Tap the unit field (°) of the heeling (HLG). HLG is set to zero and the heading shows the correct value.

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

A Winning App
An effective low cost solution for remote access to your instrument data. Great feature that shows performance based on yachts polar data. Easily to configure screens to show data of your choice. Great support.
Ver 3.10 crashes
Ver 3.10 crashes on iPhone 5. Update from 3.9 to 3.10 went automatically after program crashes and stop working. I have to reinstall 3.9 from iTunes backup. All start working. After awhile all was updated automatically again and program stop working. Please repair the bug or return 3.9 to AppStore. Thanks
Well worth the price
I was reluctant to try this app because it is a bit more expensive than other navigation apps, but it is well worth the price. I was looking for a simple, fast loading, easy-to-read instrument display without a lot of clutter and this is exactly what I was looking for. Displays a wealth of NMEA data with the option to utilize the iPhones internal GPS too. Works great with my Sail Timer wind vane. The oversized displays and ability to customize color scheme and display are terrific. My one complaint is that the evaluation version disables the network connection after just a couple of minutes. This isnt quite enough time to really evaluate the app. 10 or even 5 minutes would be more helpful. It would also be nice if the app remembered your last display when it loaded. But thats minor.
