### 1/5 — Content too little

*2021-11-18, version 3.0*

Not satisfactory at all. Is not worth the money.

### 4/5 — Excellent videos with detailed information

*2020-08-05, version 2.2*

I have learnt a lot from the videos and then from the training questions. I would have found some reference charts also helpful, rather than only the videos. But all in all I’ve found this to be the most useful app for learning theory of seamanship.

### 1/5 — Used for 5 minutes before is crashed!

*2020-07-01*

I wish it worked, app is outdated and does not work. Being a more expensive app...very disappointed.

**Developer response:** Get a new update - all is fixed

### 2/5 — Wish the light animations worked

*2020-05-05, version 2.2*

I have been looking for an app to support day skipper study. This is not bad, but none of the animations for light identification work, which is annoying, because lights are one of the things a multimedia format like this would be ideal for.

### 2/5 — Light module doesn’t work

*2020-02-13, version 2.2*

In the light module you should sea lights flashing but they don’t :-(

### 5/5 — Great Learning app

*2019-03-10, version 2.2*

Easy to understand, great tool to study...

### 5/5 — Good enough for Day Skipper

*2019-01-06, version 2.2*

Great little app to support your course material for day skipper. Found it a useful tool for revision on the move. Would I recommend it? Yes, as a supportive role as it may give more information than you need for the course. Otherwise a great refresher for sea going crews.

### 5/5 — Excellent way to learn and test your skills. Highly recommended.

*2017-04-12, version 2.2*

Broad range of material covered in an easy to understand and learn fashion.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2015-04-10*

I can't believe I paid $20 for this. It offers very little training. The videos don't even have sound. The training is only through quizzes. I don't know how you'd pass the quizzes after watching videos with no sound. Garbage app. Don't buy it.

**Developer response:** Check the new updated version. Everything works fine

### 5/5 — Very good

*2014-11-11, version 2.0.1*

Nice bit of kit.
Will help the novice very we'll!!!
