  • Software crash all the time with the new OS

    Should be possible to recommend NO stars. This software wasnt maintained for years, but still the best edit software for Garmin. With the new MacOS Sonoma it crash all the time making it impossible to use. In other words - You cannot anymore sit on a PC and edit fantastic routes for your Garmin devices.

  • Still a good way to manage GPS data, but...

    Version 4.8.11 crashes on me every time I eject one of my devices. I use this all the time to catalog my adventures, but thinking I should export all the data since who knows how long this will keep working.

  • What a joke garmin should be ashamed

    I own several boats with all garmin products. Since they discontinued home port, trying to manage your way points or tracks on a mac has been a nightmare. I own over 100k in garmin products and with thier lack of support or software updates It honestly has me wanting to switch to simrad. I have been a longtime supporter of garmin but Im really getting sick of this. Base camp is an absolute joke. You cant even use the same icons as the marine fishfinders for your way points Get your act together garmin if i could give this a 0 star rating I would the app is complkete junk!!!

  • DO NOT USE IN CURRENT STATE

    I mistakenly thought this app was at least minimally usuable, but after connecting to my Epix watch, downloading maps incimpletely for >1 hour, and having the activity wheel spin repeatedly until Force Quit, I see no reason for anyone to waste time with this app. Very disappointed in Garmin for lack of support (check last update date).

  • absolutely terrible

    i guess I had some money to waste on a watch. BaseCamp nor Express will recognize my watch, the "support" pages are worthless, response from Garmnin has been worthless. its just terrible all around.

  • Come on, man!

    Garmin builds good devices. Their software to allow one to plan trips on a desktop, and then transfer that trip to a device? Stone Age! This software is unuseable. There is nothing intuitive about it. It hasn't improved in forever. What is so freaking hard about allowing me to pick a number of geographic points, arrange an order, and then send those points to my device? It's embarrassing that Garmin doesn't care to do better.

    This app is so far below level of acceptable funtionality Garmin should just punt and start over. Evrything from trying to build maps (usually unsuccesful) to managing devices (usually unsuccessful) is clunky or downright inoperative. C'mon guys - connecting to a USB device shouldn't be a challenge. There are MANY other apps/programs that can do this stuff - up your game.

  • Barely usable software reflects poorly on Garmin devices

    I really like my Garmin GPS but almost every time I use Basecamp I swear I'm never going to buy another Garmin device. I've been using this software for at least 5 years but the basic design of the user interface still eludes me. Couple that with instability and unbelievably slow response ("Did it crash or is it still waiting to redraw the screen?) and any attempt to explore the software design and capabilities tends to end in frustration. I really want to plan trips from the comfort of my home or office -- not while sitting behind the steering wheel using the GPS directly -- so some tool like Basecamp is essential. But Basecamp is barely usable and I've begun researching alternatives to Garmin for future navigation needs.

  • Horrendous user interface

    By Certified Purchaser 247
    The technolgy and capability Garmin offers is tremendous. Almost as tremendously frustrating is the user interface obstructing your use of this capability. It's like engineers took over without any attempt at understanding the customer. While something might seem easy for the engineer who built the program and knows exactly which submenu to access with 17 clicks to bring up a hiking trail, for the average person who tries to use it the first time, it's utter garbage. This program should probably be redesigned from ground up with the target used being a 4th grader.

  • PLEASE release a version for Apple Silicon

    Basecamp always seemed faster on my Windows laptops than it did on any Mac, but it really seems slow on my fairly new M1 Pro.
