MarineTraffic - Ship Tracking App Reviews

Went from great to awful on the last update, it simply no longer works

I like that I can know what ships are going by city.

Recent version eliminated free components and now only available with additional purchases. Good for you, bad for users. Will be seeking a better app.

My use is just for fun. I have a cottage overlooking Lake Michigan. We see lots of freighters and now we can learn a little more about them. Works well

Especially those small ships. And some ships are not updated too....

My boyfriends a merchant mariner so its fun being able to track his ship and see where he sails! Marine traffic makes it so much easier!

I use the free version to keep track of my son on his maritime college cruises. Does a good job and has cool features!

Love the app. Not a pro but love to know what is moving and where its going.

I follow the Oil Industry and enjoy seeing the number of tankers and locations. With the new crude Export ban lifted, you can actually see the number of ships being loaded and exported.

Love the app, easy to use. I follow several yachts and enjoy the way the app works. The only problem that I have found is that when I zoom in on a port, the print stay too small to read.

This is junk. Id like my money back.

Not sure why it was so dependable when first loaded, but now is not as accurate.

We winter at Miramar Beach Florida. The ap allows us to identify ships we see in the Gulf, showing distance, speed and destination. Another nice feature I discovered was the wind speed and direction page.

Useful for work and following a relative at sea. I need to find barges not just tugs.

I only wish they ships were "in range" more often.

Terrible program. Wish I had my money back!

This site and the app is perfect

This app is very useful. I am currently tracking where my grandson is as he is on a private carrier cruise. I can see where he is, where they are going to and expected arrival date. When using this app you are able to see where various ships are which is very interesting. Well worth the cost.

My go to app when Im away from the office, very helpful.

Ive used other AIS apps and this one is by far the best and picks up more of the traffic than the others I have tried. I would like to use some of the advanced features and considered some in app purchases, but they are sooo expensive I stick with the free version. The developers should think about if they want a few high priced subscribers or thousands of low cost subscribers. If it was more affordable for personal use Id give it five stars because this is the best AIS app I have tried.
