Discover Fluvigo

What is Fluvigo?

A river navigation and planning app: an enriched map of the waterways, personalised routes, the services and stops around your route, and enhanced signage information for calmer cruising.

Does Fluvigo replace paper guides and official information?

Fluvigo is designed as the modern alternative to paper guides: more up to date, richer, always in your pocket. That said, the official publications of the waterway authorities are authoritative, and the skipper remains solely responsible for their navigation.

What kinds of points of interest are on the map?

Marinas, mooring stops and moorings, restaurants, bakeries, markets, tourist offices, places to visit, events and activities — spotted around your route and your stops.

Which sectors are covered?

The French inland waterways, with coverage extending gradually. Restaurants are already listed in large numbers across most sectors, and the bakery database is growing continuously.

Plan a trip

What can I plan for free?

You look at the map, create a route with a departure point, a destination and stops, then get the track, the distance, the estimated duration, the number of locks and the useful places around the route. With no bank card.

Which boats is Fluvigo useful on?

On any pleasure boat cruising the inland waterways: hire cruisers, privately owned boats, converted barges. You enter your boat’s dimensions and Fluvigo takes them into account.

Can I save several boats?

Yes. Each boat keeps its own characteristics (length, beam, draught, air draught, average speed) so that estimates stay accurate from one trip to the next.

Can I share a route with my crew?

Yes, a route can be shared as a link or a summary — handy before boarding, or for a rental base preparing a departure.

Fluvigo+ and subscription

What do the “current conditions” include?

Lock opening times, current notices to skippers, active restrictions and disruptions reported along your route. This information is refreshed continuously and is part of Fluvigo+.

Do I need Fluvigo+ to plan a trip?

No. Standard planning is complete and free. Fluvigo+ becomes useful when you want to adapt the trip to today’s conditions or be guided while you are under way.

What does AIS bring to Fluvigo?

AIS shows the commercial vessels and other equipped craft around you. On the main routes, knowing that a convoy is coming the other way before you enter a bend or pass under a bridge changes everything.

How do I cancel Fluvigo+?

From your App Store or Google Play account settings, like any subscription. Access stays active until the end of the current period.

Data and use on board

Does the app work without a network connection?

The route and the basic information for your saved itineraries remain available offline. Today’s conditions, AIS and live navigation require a connection, even an intermittent one.

How is my location data used?

Your location is used to show your progress and to trigger proximity alerts. It is not resold. You can turn off background navigation at any time in the settings.
