VesselFinder Pro App Reviews

Great Coverage US Gulf Coast

This is the hands down BEST marine AIS app around. It has the most coverage of the US gulf coast where I work from New Orleans to Corpus Christi.

Overpriced

Functional in my area ( SE New England). Way overpriced compared to other AIS apps. Marine Traffic has many more features and costs less. I especially dont like that you cant zoom to your own location. It does have better coverage of the cape and islands than MT or Shipfinder. I wish to amend my original review. Vessel Finder has become my goto app for vessel tracking. This is not a hobby, I am a professional mariner who uses this tool daily. While vessel Finder still doesnt have all the fluff, it does have current, accurate info on what is around and what I am likely to encounter in the next couple of hours. Dont change anything.

Data not reliable

This app is a major disappointment! It looks good in the iTunes store, and interface does seem like it should be good, but they dont maintain their database. I was able to cross check ship positions to verify inaccurate information presented by app, which is worse than no data. This is one app I wouldnt recommend. Its a rip off.

Not user friendly at all

Compared to marinetraffic, this app is really lousy. It does not worth my money at all.

Works excellent! Depending on the vessell

Apparently, after ready some reviews, the vessel I monitor has much better communication with this app then some. Every time I open the app the vessel I monitor, which is in the Gulf of Mexico, is immediately updated and I confirm this with a crew member sometimes to confirm the accuracy of the application.

Crashes every time you select a vessel!

Ive got an iphone5, it doesnt work. Just crashes!! Frustrating cause I paid $7 for NOTHING! Grrr..neat idea, but next time test it before selling it on iTunes! Please fix, ASAP! Then I will write a decent review.

Crashes

Just purchased this app, attempted to sign-in with my VesselFinder account, and the app crashes. Dont waste your money on this app.

Good app

I typed in my vessel name and tracked it , I have no complaints (yet)

Chesapeake Bay Area not working either

Seeing lots of comments about dead zones. Add mine as well. Not sure whats going on but the app was working well the first few days, but now its useless since its not updating. Ill update the review if it gets fixed.

"Go on, take the money and run. Whoo,whoo,whoo!"

Woulda given at least four stars but app is useless in my area now, used to work great even emailed em before about a minor issue and it was fixed , email them now about a big issue with the app and all you get is excuses, cant believe they still selling a app that dont work anymore. Sounds like they wanna pocket all monies and not update or maintain trackin equip or maintain proper contracts with those that allow them to track off of there equip. If its not updated recently, dont waste your money!

No Updates

This app has not updated in 5 days. Dont waste your money.

Total waste of $

Crashes every time!

Quirky and lame

I expected so much more for 10 bucks. Locks up/crashes often. Loses my fleet and/or signs me out. Doesnt have many features/very basic for an app that I had to buy. Disappointed. Im giving it 2 stars because I am able at least to track the one ship Im interested in right now, but I feel its very limited. The free app isnt even worth the time it takes to download. Does nothing, but again I say I expected more from the "pro" version.

Useless AIS

Used to be a good app but now has become almost useless in the gulf coast area from Alabama to Mississippi

Falling stars

PLEASE FIX THIS APP PEOPLE!

WASTE OF MONEY

Apple should not allow apps that promise things that it cant do ....everyone who purchased this app should get a FULL REFUND...

Buggy

It works, it doesnt work, it works, it doesnt work......it dumped my fleet, it found my fleet...it says log in failed...arghh! Not happy. Not a reliable app. Taking on water....

Useless

$ 10 dollars for nothing. I wish I could return this crap software. Looses the fleet, tells your partly about positions where the ships were 3 days ago or even longer. Absolutely useless Software. Why isn’t done better??

Waste of money

App was unable to track a sailing vessel.

Waste of money I agree

This app cost quite a bit, and its horrible. Ive started using a free one called Findship Lite and it is soooo much better. This app not recommend, wish I could get my money back.
