2 Nov - the app just updated today and it's back to functional. Thanks for fixing that. Good app again. 31 Oct - A very nice app prior to 9 Oct upgrade, after that nearly useless. Used to show all ships in the Great Lakes when zoomed out, now spotty if it will show ships or say "No ships found" at large overviews, and also spotty when zooming in, doesn't always show the ships. That's really unfortunate because it was a really nice app prior, very much enjoyed it.
A great programme, more user friendly than others. Any issues that occur are dealt with straight away. Fully recommend it.
Very bad because I have to pay just to learn info of a boat I thought you just learn the simple info and then if you get the subscription you can get more but you don't even get a little bit of info and you have to pay $6
If I want to see photos and info about boats I must upgrade - but to do that I must agree to a contract I can't read, and I lose the right to withdraw???
was working fine... I don't know what happened. stopped working all of a sudden. major delay, makes ship look like it's behind schedule.
Paid to upgrade the app so as to have favourite vessels. It is frequently weeks behind vessel positioning whereas FREE apps such as Vessel Finder are up to date. Waste of money!
Need to be able to filter types of ships. Also Need to be able to see more ships without having to zoom way in.
Useless - I am sitting here looking at 4 ships moored offshore but according to this app there is only 1. Tried an alternative app and that picks up all 4
Very few ships to view, slow updating and seemingly displays different ships on refresh/ zoom.
Privacy concern They require access to your photos, videos and files. Which is unnecessary needed
Live on an island so use this all the time to see when the ferries haven't sailed (quicker than updates from cal-mac anyway!)
I enjoyed this so much I paid £5.99 for the upgrade to Premium, but nothing has changed. What did I pay for?
Not updated for every ship.Just I have searched my ship and got the result was 7 days older
doesnt pick up all ships. am in greek islands. better apps about.
Doesn't seem to pick up boats that I know are there and transmitting their positions
Needs major overhaul, never gives accurate information
Brilliant & easy to use
Why I cannot see more update this application I like to see the cargo vessel why need to upgrade I think this is application is free why I pay
could not find independance of the seas a major cruise line ship
Excellent app for searching boat
Brilliant app and developer support
Don't tell you anything unless you pay,useless
Why can I not find cruise ships that sail to Hawaii?
This Is amazing I can finally see where my dad is at work
Fascinating information about boats
Guys you're headed in the right direction, but there's a lot of additional options you need to add. One being a users "Fleet" where they can add their favorite ships they watch the most. Also, the option for users to add pictures of these ships. Also, more ship data. I use an app called FindShip which is unfortunately no longer available in the Google store, but it is available as apk file to download and use. It is far superior to your app now, but you can change that. If you want.
