Frequently Asked Questions - FAQ
What happens if I don’t upgrade my WinGPS (for Windows) to the latest edition?
Your license will remain active, but you will no longer receive updates. You can continue using WinGPS, but for your safety we recommend keeping the program up to date. This ensures that you continue to receive updates to the waterway network, bridges and locks, and, for Pro, Voyager, and Inland, also the latest Dutch tide data. In addition, you will benefit from program improvements and any new features.
How can I update my WinGPS Marine app for Android or iOS?
You don't need a Premium Subscription to update our WinGPS Marine apps.
For WinGPS Marine Plus for iOS, the following applies: you purchase the app once, after which you automatically receive all available updates, both for the app itself and for the waterway network.
WinGPS Marine Plus for Android is available as an annual subscription, which renews automatically. As long as this subscription is active, you will receive all available updates for the app, the waterway network, and NL-tidal data. Once you cancel your subscription, your app will revert to the free Lite version.
You can, however, opt for the Service Subscription. This subscription still provides you with exclusive discounts and premium helpdesk service.
How can I download the IENC charts for the Netherlands in WinGPS?
With a Premium Subscription, you receive free access to the IENC Update Service Netherlands.
In WinGPS, go to:File → Properties → IENC Area and check “Netherlands.” These charts will now be downloaded and updated automatically whenever new data becomes available from the relevant authorities (an internet connection is required).
Via Charts → Chart Manager, you can select which charts you wish to display in WinGPS.
The IENC Update Service NL can also be purchased separately or expanded to include additional countries. Click here to view the different IENC Update Services.
How do I get a discount on the DKW charts?
If you have a Premium or Service Subscription, you will receive a discount on 100% Stentec DKW charts*.
Once you have purchased such a subscription, it will be linked to your account and the discount will automatically be applied to your chart orders. We recommend purchasing your Premium or Service Subscription first, and only placing your chart order once the subscription has been processed.
