Unlike many other apps, Aqua Map is designed to use at the best the battery power. Its Battery Consumption Monitoring will stop the track recording when the battery is too low, in order to ensure the phone is still usable at the end of your outdoors day.

Aqua Map works also when in background, you can receive/make calls and messages while the track recording is running.

Like any GPS, the signal quality can vary very much depending by the amount of visible sky, foliage, weather condition, etc. GPS is not reliable indoor.
The continuous GPS usage, also in background, can drastically reduce the battery life.
Latest reviews of Aqua Map Minnesota Lakes GPS app for iPhone and iPad
Right out of the shoot; crash crash crash....dont bother.
Downloaded the App only to find there isnt any data in the App. Totally worthless.
There are no depths when I download a lake. The bays and stuff are labeled , but no depths. Hopefully that will chance and I can change my rating.
After downloading my area I found my Canterville lake and the app works great. Very useful your web page to check first if my lake was present.
Very helpful for lakes that you cant use motorized boats and lakes that you want go on and dont know what or where the access are. For those that cant afford expensive GPS for the boat, it works similar but the screen will go into sleep mode so it give and take. Most of the lake data are here and its one of the better ones on the App Store with a reasonable price.
