Navionics is great, but for me Spyglass is the best. This is an amazing app to have on a boat. It works as a ship's compass, a bearing compass and sextant (without the math), as well as a GPS. It makes a great introduction to celestial navigation, and it is accurate enough to be a seriously useful tool. https://itunes.apple.com/app/spyglas...at=11lLc7&ct=c

I use Garmin Blue Chart Mobile. I was able to use it navigating the Emerald Coast ICW the first time I was down there. It's a little pricey but it has real charts.
