### 2/5 — Somewhat disappointed

*2026-08-29, version 1.1.46*

I thought I would enjoy hiding and finding ducks, the users were so stupid. They would hid a duck on a deck then in the description say “Hallway” with a picture of just the duck, no clue whatsoever in the background. This made it extremely hard to find, so I had to constantly say “Can’t find duck”. I wish there was a way to contact the user and leave them a message stating that there needs more info in the pic.

### 3/5 — ITS OK…

*2026-08-25, version 1.1.45*

It’s good but it’s not popular so I’m the only person hiding ducks so it’s kinda boring…

### 4/5 — Improvements

*2026-08-25, version 1.1.45*

Allow messaging. I would love to leave ducks for specific people I meet on the ship while playing, as well as leaving a group message for all of us to hide more ducks.

### 5/5 — Sea ducks

*2026-08-08, version 1.1.42*

Was very fun and engaging really helped me find ducks!

### 4/5 — Great app

*2026-08-04, version 1.1.42*

I love using this app and think it is a great opportunity to find more ducks. The only thing that I would critique is that one or two people often get most of the ducks and don’t give others a chance. I know some things aren’t fair but I feel there should be more opportunities for kids who want to get ducks but some one is already there before them. Like one person in the app has 50+ ducks when most have 3 or less.

### 5/5 — Really Fun App

*2026-08-03, version 1.1.42*

The app is super convenient to hide and find ducks, it was awesome and easy to use, even though it was my first time using it… 
Only recommendation is to make it work more reliable with ship Wi-Fi or phone internet, we all know those are not the best at sea and app stays loading and don’t register good.
At least keep 1 or 2 record offline (hiding) so it can load after it get signal… 
Was frustrating not been able to show more on the app because of this, would have no signal and can’t hide (because you need the pic).. I had around 60 ducks and only could show 9 on the app…

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2026-08-03, version 1.1.42*

This is the first and only app I use, since Duck Passport is too complicated, and on Cruise Ducker you can’t use the ducker handle.

### 5/5 — Very very good

*2026-07-31, version 1.1.42*

I found and hid 3 ducks and my cousin found 5 and hid 15

### 5/5 — Really fun

*2026-07-31, version 1.1.42*

This is my first time using this app and it’s honestly really fun I made friends of this app and found some by of my favorite ducks

### 5/5 — This is amazing

*2026-07-30, version 1.1.42*

I have been trying all the time just to find more ducks. This is so much fun and with friends and my sister this is so much fun

### 4/5 — Amazing

*2026-07-29, version 1.1.42*

This is a very good app the only thing is that not every one has it so you have to stay on track of your ducks so the other people aren’t lookin go for a duck that isn’t there.

### 5/5 — Great family fun

*2026-07-28, version 1.1.42*

This app puts community into duck hunting - over the past few cruises, I have had lots of fun hiding & seeking with this app & met lots of lovely folks

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-07-25, version 1.1.42*

Added my cruise with no problems can't wait to get others involved!

### 4/5 — Pretty good for at sea days

*2026-07-20, version 1.1.41*

This app is the best app for at sea days although for me, it’s very hard because not many people will hide ducks in a lot of people don’t know about this app on your cruise so then they’ll take ducks if they see it but not post found on app if y’all could please create a chat to ask the other users to hide ducks. This would be the best app

### 5/5 — Real fun but would one thing

*2026-07-20, version 1.1.41*

Sea Ducks is an awesome way to connect on cruise ships while doing a really fun hobby. I hadn’t enjoyed duck hunting because I wouldn’t know anything about where to look, but Sea Ducks lets others hunt for ducks alongside people who enjoy the same thing and also makes things easy to understand about duck hunting. One thing that made me tired was that you usually had to go check on ducks that people marked as missing, so maybe they could add a feature where you could take a picture for proof that the duck is missing? That one feature would make it perfect. But overall it’s a really awesome app. 5 Stars!

### 4/5 — Love it!!!

### 1/5 — I got banned for no reasons

*2026-08-30, version 1.1.46*

For some reason I got banned

### 1/5 — Less Use All the Time

*2026-05-09*

Not Popular App as pictures and listings make it impossible to not find a Duck thereby users have quit using the app.  Taken the find challenge out of finding.  Am currently on a 13 day cruise and am the only one using the app so can’t mart the three found that were found because other users never signed in so can’t mart only hid and find my own ducks - where is the fun in that?  App will not allow you to “find” ducks that aren’t placed by App users.

### 1/5 — Laramie

Brecheisen

### 1/5 — Ruined duck hunting on ships

*2026-05-05, version 1.1.34*

This has taken the fun out of duck hunting.  Instead of people naturally finding ducks you have people who camp the app and get ducks before anyone.  It is not a true hunt when the picture tells you exactly where it is. I miss the joy of just finding a duck and an even playing field for everyone on the ship.  Would never use to actually hide a duck because I would rather other people get a shot at finding ducks

### 1/5 — Broken app

*2026-04-28, version 1.1.34*

App is broken, cant click half the buttons

### 1/5 — Would be a zero if possible

*2026-04-09, version 1.1.31*

App is great for building community within the ship, however results are unfair. App allows cheating. Family can hide ducks for their family members to find. App provides ZERO support even with proof although they say they do not tolerate cheating.

### 1/5 — Why have you ruined this app

*2026-04-05*

I used this on my last cruise it was so fun. This time not so much. You’ve changed the app so now I can’t see who found my duck and I also can’t see the photo they took to be able to verify it. Super annoying. I suspect this is the by the app has barely been used this sailing. I stopped using it pretty much immediately after hiding my first three. I’ve re downloaded it twice to try and see if it was just me, but it does appear that you just ruined the app.

### 1/5 — People can report you for anything if they feel like it

*2026-04-03, version 1.1.31*

I was finding ducks that a hider was putting right next to each other and I got reported for a rule that I didn’t even break no one download this app it’s for people to just ban you when your close to winning.

### 1/5 — Too much ai

*2026-03-21, version 1.1.31*

Pay a designer $50 and you can make this app not so disgusting

### 1/5 — Quit App

*2026-03-07, version 1.1.29*

Not Good App

*2026-08-25, version 1.1.45*

### 5/5 — Best thing ever

*2026-08-25, version 1.1.45*

### 5/5 — Amazing interactive fun!!!! 🐤

*2026-08-14, version 1.1.45*

Thank you so much for creating such a fun, interactive, real-time app for us to use on our cruise! My family had the absolute BEST time hunting and hiding ducks. Our cruise had some unbelievable hiders that hid over 1000 ducks!!! (Shout out to the family starting with F and the family that hid the 3D printed sea creatures…they were awesome!!) We would really love if you’d consider adding a “like” or “favorite” button for hiders or allow us to comment on hides we find or think are cool. Also, would be great to be able to thank the hider with a comment or phrase after finding a duck. You can even make a badge for “fan favorite” hider! We just loved using this app, it made our cruise so much more enjoyable, we tried to tell everyone onboard about it! Really look forward to using it again on our next cruise! 🐥💕

### 5/5 — Good for cruises

*2026-08-13, version 1.1.45*

Very fun to do

### 5/5 — Really good app

*2026-08-11, version 1.1.45*
