RayRemote
RayRemote transforms your phone into a virtual remote keypad for Raymarine multifunction displays.
Android/Kindle Fire = Best performance achieved with 1GHz processor or better and running Android 2.2.2 or later.Multi-Functional Display software requirement – v 3.15 or later.
Compatible displays (MFDs) – all third generation c-Series, e-Series, g-S and Wi-Fi enabled a-Series models
RayRemote emulates the keypad of Raymarine displays, giving you control of all the MFD functions with large full screen keypad.
The virtual uni-controller lets you rotate through menus and make menu adjustments effortlessly. The app also provides a viewing mode, which mirrors the MFD’s display. To use this app please upgrade your Raymarine WiFi enabled Multi-Functional Display to software version 3.15 or later. Software upgrades are available for free at www.raymarine.com/support.
Note
- RayRemote will also run on tablet devices, though it is primarily intended for smart phones.
Getting Started
Download the RayRemote app, and install it on your device. You should ensure your device has access to the internet when initially installing to enable verification of the app. Next, connect to your Multifunction Display via Wi-Fi (see MFD operators manual for Wi-Fi setup details). When the Wi-Fi connection is established, launch the app. You should now see the same image on your mobile device as you do on your MFD. Simply touch the screen and a button will appear to switch to remote control mode.
Note
- autopilot activation/deactivation is not possible via a mobile device.

If I disconnect my phone from the local WiFi and connect to the chart plotter WiFi (Bluetooth seems not to be supported, even though I've managed to pair the devices), then I'm allowed to see the screen of my Raymarine chart plotter, and I am allowed to press "remote control" and then the screen changes to show me the control buttons of my chart plotter. I really had higher expectations (i.e. allowing me to control the autopilot easily or showing different information on the mobile)
Thanks for providing the ray remote. We really are enjoying the app. To watch and interact with weather, navigation, radar, fish finder, video, audio via tv below decks during weather offshore, for example, is a huge assistance. The app only took a minut to load onto a prepaid android phone just for the boat. Watch remote chart on tv. We're having fun with this. Wondering about turning over the operating system of phone to another remote... Gotta run a nmea cable to ice maker next. Fun!!!
Seems nobody is liking this app but I installed it to use on my Axiom. Ok its a little hooky but works fine for advancing my AP to next WP. Software Freemantle, phone S-21 as of 8-31 app no longer working, time for an update. Had updated to Guadalupe when it stopped working
Works as it suppose to. There is a bit of lag (1-2 secs) between the plotter and the Android app. If that wasn't there it would get 5 stars
It's hard to imagine a software company setting out to make a product so unambitious in its scope and functionality, and still being unable to hit its lowly goals. Epic, epic fail as usual Raymarine.
Doesn't work, I can't control screen, I can view screen but that's it. Samsung mobile.
Absolutely horrible and ridiculous. I spent $3000 on a raymarine setup and their apps only support devices that are 10 years old. Seriously... The andoid devices is support?? ANDROID NEXUS! MY TOUCH 3G! What the &@&$-$-???? It's 2020 and this technology company doesn't have a working app - even though their sales reps claim you can control everything from your phone. Garbage. The app doesn't work.
Raymarine has not updated this app since 2017. I just bought an es chartplotter and they haven't made it compatible with my new Samsung S10. Very very disappointed.
You need to update your app to make it compatible with the latest versions of android that have been out over a year. It fails a license check, even though it doesn't need a license.
Download app.worked first time .how good is that .can do wpts from remote screen .and basic functions , very happy thanks ,James
App doesn't work properly with newer android devices and their operating versions. This abandoned App was last updated in 2017.
Outdated. Screen view doesn't work with Axiom 9. Remote works slowly.
Connects and I can see the Raymarine icons and autopilot status, but unfortunately I can't tap anything with this version of Android
turn all things on on the MFD. phone cannot find it still.. spent so much time with tech online for other issues why do we need another
Raymarine? Seriously? What a pathetic, garbage app. I was so looking forward to connecting my Pixel to my Axiom. Can't even get it to connect. What a disappointment.
Very difficult to highlight AIS points or other points. A thicker cross hairs would help.
Not updated since 2017. Not compatible. Embarrassing!!!
Does not work, app has not been updated in almost 2 years.
Build for older version of Android, will run but starts with a warning message.
Not reliable. Keeps dropping out or not connecting
2020 and still no update even though all the new manuals and flyers promote the app...
Not compatible with android way behind the times
Not compatible with Android 10 on July 2020! 🤬
Lags and many times doesn't respond for Android Samsung Galx 10
needs to be updated to work
This app does not work on my Motorola G7 phone
Doesnt work on Android or Ios.
The RayRemote does not control the Axiom units well at all. They use the analogue control style and you have to be looking at the actual screen to see what is happening. This is a complete waste of potential. The RayRemote should be touch screen if it is paired with a touch screen Axiom MFD. Also connection issues are a continuing problem. Raymarine, I implore you to bring your mobile apps up to the same quality as your MFDs.
