Useless

App doesn’t even load. Blank screen. Useless.

Cannot Register

The app is only useful if you can login. You’re forced to login but if you don’t have an account there’s no where to register. Go to the wretched website and there’s also no place to register. BC Ferries is a sunken business.

App itself is easy to use

As a regular commuter in the Sunshine Coast, I have many complaints about BC Ferries. However, the app is not one of them. Nice clear interface and I like how easy it is to access my saved routes.

Absolute garbage

Clearly designed in house by someone who wasn’t interested. Stay away. Use the website. It isn’t efficient but at least it works
