### 4/5 — Frustrating for b2b cruises

*2026-08-15, version 1.2.2*

Love being able to map my cruises however I am doing b2b cruises in 2027 and it won’t allow me to log both as it says cruises can’t overlap. They are not overlapping, they just obviously start and finish on the same day.

### 4/5 — Cruise Ports

*2026-08-04, version 1.2.0*

How do I get cruise ports added. There are no ports for SEAWARD, AK, WHITTIER ALASKA OR ANCHORAGE ALASKA all used by RCL for cruises departing from Vancouver, BC Canada and Seattle Washington, USA

### 4/5 — Really Nice App

*2026-08-02, version 1.1.16*

I’m heading out on my first cruise at the end of the month, and your app looks really sharp. I would give it 5 stars, but there are a few areas for improvement.

• Consider an in-app or online means of providing feedback.
• I’m having fun tracking my ship before I go on the cruise, but it would be helpful if the current location of the ship I’m tracking is better marked (perhaps a larger icon or a different color).
• Also while tracking the ship, it would be nice to scale back on the history…maybe hourly would be too granular, but a sliding scale of the number of days of history to show would be helpful.
• I like the little dots noting the time-stamps of the trip…but maybe those could be tiny arrows instead in the direction of travel.  Then you can eliminate the ghosted larger arrows doing the same thing…less clutter.
• Perhaps some of these things can be set in preferences….

Very much looking forward to this app earning a perfect score!

### 3/5 — Love this

*2026-07-13, version 1.1.16*

It’s great to map your cruises but I find it difficult to get back to home page or change a mistake

### 3/5 — Promising but hard to use

*2026-07-04, version 1.1.16*

I want so much to “love”this app but so far it has been a mild“like”. Developers alway think their app is intuitive to use but that’s because they created it. Users have to hunt and peck to find things in it. It just very frustrating to use. It’s very easy to add a future cruise, but very difficult to add an old cruise for cruisers who have 40+ cruises over the last 20 years. Most people keep the cruise ship name, cruise ID, sail date, sailing port, number of days, and region. Maybe ask for number of days instead of cruise end date to make it a little easier. I’m betting very few people keep a list of ports visited specially the ones who sail multiple times a year out of Galveston just to get out of town for a short break. Is there a database somewhere that lists cruise IDs by cruise line?

### 5/5 — The cruise globe

*2026-06-21, version 1.1.15*

Off the scale brilliant

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-06-18, version 1.1.15*

About time we had a free app where I can put all my cruises on and see where I’ve been.
Downloaded it a few days ago and it’s been stable, also found it was quite easy to setup.
Let’s hope it remains as good as it is. Thanks to the team.

### 5/5 — Best invention ever!

*2026-06-17, version 1.1.15*

I absolutely love this app, seeing all my cruises and reliving them - I only wish the maps would have an “add photo” option so you can personalise your cruise with photos from ports. I’d definitely buy them then

### 5/5 — Best cruise record you can have.

*2026-06-04, version 1.1.15*

I have used this App since its introduction. It is a fantastic way to record your cruises and a perfect way to share your journeys with friends. It is continually improving and adding new features. The team behind the App are supper friendly and helpful.

### 5/5 — Best app

*2026-05-31, version 1.1.14*

Emma has done an amazing job

### 5/5 — Such a fun App!

*2026-05-26, version 1.1.14*

What a wonderful app! Easy to use, great travel log for cruises and a fun ability to track cruise ships. Love it!

### 5/5 — Call at for remembering past cruises

*2026-05-21, version 1.1.14*

This is a simple app and I like it.  It does one thing and one thing only really well. Mapping out my cruises!

### 4/5 — Great App

*2026-05-15, version 1.1.14*

Amazing app for tracking all your cruises. At first a couple of mine didn’t show so had to add them manually, however within a couple days these had been added to the apps data base. Love how it tracks your route and how it gives you overall days at sea and how many miles you’ve cruised.

### 4/5 — Cool.. more features please!

*2026-05-13, version 1.1.14*

Love the visuals in this app. I live on a perpetual cruise so this might be less applicable but would love to see number of sea days versus port days as well as days spent in each port. Also is there a way to speed up the replay to 1.5 or 2x? Thanks for this very awesome way to see our home at sea!

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2026-04-24, version 1.1.12*

The Cruise Globe is a fantastic app that I now use all the time. All current features are great with more added all the time. There are actually people behind the app with timely responses.

### 5/5 — Developers respond!

*2026-04-22, version 1.1.12*

I asked the developers for help and they responded! I love this app.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — No USA ports!!

*2026-07-06, version 1.1.16*

I can only enter foreign destinations. No domestic ports are available.

### 1/5 — Confusing

*2026-07-05, version 1.1.16*

This app did not allow me to search cruises but asked me to put in all my information and then get back in touch with me about cruises that are available. The app asked so few questions that anything is will suggest is probably not at all helpful. Total waste of time. Sorry Emma this is a total disaster. I have used vacations to go.com for years and still suggest it over this app.

### 1/5 — Horrible Customer Service

*2026-06-04, version 1.1.15*

My account stopped working. I never get the email with the 6 digit login code (yes, I checked my spam box). Contacted Cruise Globe several times but the won’t help or even respond. Think twice before putting all your travel data and then get locked out

### 1/5 — All gone

*2026-05-06, version 1.1.13*

I uploaded all my cruises and then with the app update all my data was lost!  This should not happen and I will not reload all of my data. I will just find another app that will keep my data and track my cruises.

### 1/5 — Where are the cruises?

*2026-04-14, version 1.1.10*

App couldn’t find five of my seven cruises with Norwegian in the last four years.  Apps, kind of useless.

### 1/5 — Cannot signup no matter how hard I try.

*2026-03-10, version 1.1.7*

Oh well, tried signing up with my apple account, it failed, tried with my email, it failed, 30 minutes later still no luck, I give up, you win.  You have a glitch. Let me know when you work it out.

### 1/5 — Missing data

*2025-12-08, version 1.0.8*

Since the update today, I can no longer see any of the Discovery cruise ships.

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2025-11-30, version 1.0.6*

Can’t find any of my 9 cruises!- what a waste of time and effort! App deleted!

### 1/5 — Can’t find my cruises

*2025-11-22, version 1.0.6*

I’ve done two cruises on major lines in the last two years, the app can’t find either one

### 1/5 — Can’t find previous cruises

*2025-11-06, version 1.0.5*

Unfortunately when I enter the details on the app for my previous cruises it says it can’t find them. Love the concept of the app, but being able to add previous cruises more easily would be much better please!

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2026-08-15, version 1.2.2*

The app is a lot of fun. But even better, I’m using the service to book a cruise! Their team could not be kinder and more responsive!

### 5/5 — Best cruise tracking app

*2026-08-14, version 1.2.2*

Absolutely love it

### 5/5 — My Cruise Journeys

*2026-08-08, version 1.2.1*

Great app for keeping a track of my cruises across the world. So easy to load them as you enter a few selections it finds the itinerary. Can’t figure out how to delete if you enter one erroneously so be careful.

### 5/5 — Great App with Fantastic Customer Support

*2026-08-06, version 1.2.1*

If you are a cruise enthusiast and a map geek this site is amazing!

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2026-08-05, version 1.2.1*

Been using it from the start.  Love the new features with the country flags and list of counties you have visited.

### 5/5 — Cruise globe is the best st showing my extensive travels

*2026-08-01, version 1.1.16*

I love the cruise Globe and the maps . Every port every move we make in the ocean. I love the cruise cards for easy sharing.  I take long cruises and it documents the journey and is my most valuable keepsake to document exactly where went to cherish in the future. I started using the cards with the book and it is great for coffee table books for people to see where I have gone and see where they would like to go.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-07-28, version 1.1.16*

The app itself doesn’t have any bugs. Easy to use and the option to search prior trips, and purchase the merchandise is fantastic. Well done Emma, you and you team have done well.

### 5/5 — Kelly

*2026-07-25, version 1.1.16*

Fantastic app!

### 5/5 — iPad app?

*2026-06-30, version 1.1.16*

Is an iPad app coming?

### 5/5 — Can’t add a cruise on iPhone

*2026-06-22, version 1.1.16*

When I try to add a cruise on my phone it doesn’t work. Either the year dropdown isn’t working or the choices are obscured by the keyboard. At that point it is impossible to continue.
