*2025-07-25, version 1.2.2*

What an incredible app! So helpful to be able to track sailings and get a booking in peak times. I’m usually very proactive with making reservations but sometimes last minute appointments/meeting/obligations pop up and this app is a true star. Thanks to Dave and team for the 5 star app!

### 5/5 — Best App in the World

*2025-07-18, version 1.2.2*

If you take (and hate) BC ferries a lot, download this app. I’ve used it a couple times so far and it works perfectly. Successfully got two resos on VERY busy summer weekends. Run don’t walk to this app. It’s a life saver.

### 5/5 — Ferry Rez

### 5/5 — It works!

*2025-07-16, version 1.2.2*

Simple way to set up and manage alerts for ferry booking. I got one within the first 2 hours of creating the alert!

### 5/5 — It works!

*2023-07-27, version 1.0.21*

You have to book immediately after you get a notification, but it’s so much better than refreshing the bc ferries site yourself. I was able to book the reservation I wanted! The app has some layout bugs on my iphone mini, but the developers are super responsive and helpful. Recommended.
