#GARMIN HOMEPORT GPI SOFTWARE#

It’s clear that Garmin has turned their backs on this aspect of their products, and their customers. Then the only option, without spending hundreds of 3rd party software, is this clunky, outdated, barely functioning program. Why they won’t playback on the very device that records and displays them is beyond me. I can’t playback SideVu recordings, and I’m now starting to think that even recording them is pointless.

I mean no disrespect to those who’ve developed HomePort, but I can’t imagine anyone could defend this software with a straight face. This isn’t a lot to ask, and it makes Garmin look like fools. Throw some money at a coder, or two and give us something to utilize the state of the art sonar tech we’ve paid handsomely for. It’s 2020, and time to dump this HomePort program from 2002. Convert CSV files to GPI for Garmin GPS. Export TomTom POI files (ov2) to generic CSV file format for use onto Garmin, Navman or any other GPS device. It’s like buying a top of the line gaming PC and running Windows 95 on it. In addition to our Extra POI Editor, you can use Garmin POI manager to edit and convert LMX, KML, KMZ, EST, CSV, GPX and other POI conversion needs.

It feels like Garmin got my money and that’s all they care about.ĭo they (Garmin) not realize HomePort can very easily ruin their entire marine products? I mean this isn’t rocket science, it’s a PC program, paired to a device that operates on software. Usually when I go fishing or boating in areas I know well I use the. I just spent $3k on a plotter and to have this program to use leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Hello, On my Vipermax I have 2 plotters installed - a Garmin 720s and a Raymarine E7. I’m dumbfounded that HomePort is as horrible as it is.
