This app is nice and quickly displays the locations of all cruise ships worldwide, including those in the middle of the oceans outside of the range of AIS receivers. It also shows the annual itineraries of most cruise ships. It would be nice if there were more than ten filters for cruise lines as there are still a lot of large cruise lines that have been lumped into the “Other” category. Additionally, the app should not show icebreakers in the “Other” category and exclude these as it does other commercial, non-passenger vessels.

So I have used this app to see the location of a cruise ship or just to se all ships sailing, and the app is good but there are some things to be fixed. First, after a while of being in the app,it glitches out, when you try to zoom in it zooms out instead and you can’t tap on another ship if you are already looking at one. Second, while the app might tell you how fast the ship is going, it doesn’t appear moving on the map, it just appears still, and it also takes forever to update the location of the ship. Third and last, I wish there were more thing to do the the actual map like more styles, different ways to show you what ship you are looking at, and make the lines that follows the ship cleaner and smoother on the sections where the ship turns. If all these things get fixed I would happily rate this app higher.

Been there done that with Caribbean. Now I’m exploring other destinations. Great for seeing which cruise lines/ships sail in different parts of the world. However, wish there was an option to turn off river boats and ferries as it would be much easier to track cruise ships. Europe, in particular, is very cluttered by showing everything. When planning my travels, this app has been great for researching ports, seeing where ships dock, info on cities, ship facts and itineraries, etc.

This app actually is really good although it isn’t the most complex maps ever it really does have a lot of information about a lot of different ships. It is real time accurate. Does give good detail about the ships life and the information behind the ship(s). It even shows information on ships that have been scrapped. Would recommend the app if you are curious.
