Response from developer
Since your review, we've made significant updates and improvements to Afloat Plan Home. Last November, we brought in a new developer who has helped us enhance the app's functionality and reliability. We invite you to try the latest version and see the improvements for yourself. Thanks for your feedback.
Does not work with iOS 17

Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced. I'm pleased to inform you that we have fixed the compatibility issues with iOS 17 in our latest update. Please update the app to the newest version, and it should now work smoothly.
Easy to use
Great way to communicate
Could be a real Lifesaver
This app is way too hard too use, had to delete
They ask you a ton of personal information which might be acceptable if they're using it to share in the event of an emergency during a planned float, but that's not made clear. If you don't fill out every single field they ask you to on each of the pages they take you through, there is 1 error prompt that says "Please fill out all fields correctly." For the first two pages I went through that only meant make sure each box had something in it. I wrote "don't have one" when it asked for my registration number, trailer number, and home port.
The third page is where I got stuck. They have 6 fields for a name and a phone number, and each set of the fields has a red X next to it. Well, all that red X doesn't let you remove a set, it just clears out anything you typed in those fields. Either this page is broken and unusable, or they require 6 unique names and phone numbers and they're requiring certain inputs when you enter those. I couldn't even get through when I made up names and entered fake phone numbers.
I love the idea and the potential of this app, but they definitely did not stick the landing.
Reviewed 5/20/23. Two weeks after an update to the app for bug fixes.
Response from developer
Since your review, we have simplified the setup of the app and reduced the number of mandatory fields and streamlined the registration process. The app no longer requires unnecessary information for initial use. The contact functionality has been reworked. We are confident that these changes will significantly improve your experience. We value your feedback and are committed to making the app as useful and user-friendly as possible. Thank you for your patience and support.
