Really useful and very reliable! ### 5/5 — Really useful for Isle of Wight-ers *2018-08-16* Gives the real time position of the floating bridge (and whether it’s working or not) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not working *2026-08-11* 400 Bad Request No required SSL certificate was sent nginx ### 1/5 — Unable to access *2026-05-25* 400 bad request and blank screen ### 2/5 — Inaccurate *2019-08-02* Great idea, but not accurate, says that the floating bridge is out of service but just got on it! Needs to be more reliable. ### 2/5 — Brilliant idea, performance could be improved. *2018-09-06* Have recently moved to live in Cowes and now rely on the app. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to update after the first access. I have of course done the ‘drag down action’ - for example I opened the app at 1412 today and by 1438 the position hadn’t updated despite trying to refresh the screen. I know the ferry has moved because I’ve had a text update from someone travelling on it. Hope the app can be made robust as I like it and think it is a great idea. ### 2/5 — Not accurate *2018-08-27* Just downloaded telling me out of service ,so checked on floaty cam ? Full of cars just getting ready to go to East Cowes 1010 hrs , not very accurate. **Developer response:** Joe, we have had some problems recently with the AIS signal being turned off as you may have heard about. The signal has been switched back on now and seems to be stable. Please try it again and reassess it as it is now giving accurate data. ### 5/5 — Rubicon *2019-09-27* Splendid app. Even julius Caesar would have found it useful. 55bc might have been 54bc if he had used floaty. Chris ### 5/5 — Good *2019-03-16* Good idea, usefull app, UI could be better, but it is enough for the aim! Would be good to give more service: ticket...but I think it is a private app, so hopefully the owner of the chainferry service recognizes the potentian in the app! ### 5/5 — Great app! *2019-01-13* Living in Cowes and working in East Cowes, this app is a lifesaver! I’m rarely late for work now I can look up where the floaty is before I leave home. ### 5/5 — Time for a coffee? *2018-10-05* I love this app as I hate waiting around. It’s a bonus being able to pick up a coffee instead of waiting in a line of parked cars! Well done Wight Hat 👍 ### 5/5 — Hip hip hooray! At last 🙏🏻 *2018-08-19* Great app - keeps me sane thanks guys 👏👍🙌 ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Ha!

Great app! ### 5/5 — Floaty finder *2018-08-17* This app will save all those wasted journeys down to East Cowes to find the bridge is out of service! It’ll save me hours every month.
