I recently had my iPad do an Apple update. Then yesterday I updated the North American/Bahamas chart on my Bluechart Garmin app. Now I'm finding the Garmin app crashes quite often. It seems be happening when playing around entering a new route. Has anyone else experienced this ?
We don't use this app for navigating just for the Active Captain info and general backup of our Raymarine MFD chart and other Garmin GPS. It's handy for route planning purposes, we also use the Plan2nav app as well but like the Garmin charts better for the Bahamas, they are very close to the Explorer paper charts.

Something similar, yes. Start googling your own experience.
Seems that every time Apple updates something, new bugs are released. I use a Bad Elf GPS w/iSailor that became useless for about 3 months+ awhile ago, until Apple got around to "fixing" it.
I've got that little red iOS update notification bugging me to install it, but once bitten, and all that.
Bottom line, don't be too quick to update, until you've made some inquiries into the public's reception of said update.
