NOT FOR NAVIGATION
Boat Watch should only be used for basic navigation reference and should not be solely relied upon to determine precise locations, proximity, distance, or direction.
Don’t know what they use to track ships but don’t work well, not even if the ship is a shore. I have been following the allure of the seas and for the past 2 days got no report, they had stopped in San Juan P R and in Haiti and still showing the ship in around St Thomas No reliable app!
Downloaded this app for work purposes. At first (lite version) I had no issues. Once I paid for the full version, all of my troubles began. Again I use this for work purposes. There is a constant freeze or delay of ship movements or locations. At times the ships don’t even show up at all. Major waste IMO.
Too bad the app doesn’t deliver. The concept is great, but it is slow and often completely inaccurate.
The app consistently shows boats on dry land. I’ve also had issues with it incorrectly reporting location showing the boat I’m tracking to be somewhere that I know it is not while I’m in communication with someone actually on board
Tried the upgrade because the free addition showed only a few ships in harbors and none moving. Even though I could see them. The upgrade shows no ships. Again I can see them. Waste of money
Watch boats go out of port all the time and says no ships in area. Rating - “0”
Does rarely track Celebrity? Says they cannot be tracked as they are out to sea??? WHY WOULDN’T THEY BE! They are cruise ships! SAVE YOUR $$$ on this one..
