Digital Yacht have a variety of apps available for iOS and Android platforms and the open source nature of the AquaWear OS makes it compatible with many 3rd party apps too. AquaWear devices use an industry standard NMEA 0183 or NMEA 2000 interface to integrate with typical navigation systems from Garmin, Raymarine, Navico etc allowing real time data including AIS, GPS and instrument information to be streamed and utilised by apps.
