### 1/5 — Needs some more work!!

*2025-08-25, version 2.0*

Some sharks appear to circumnavigate the globe between consecutive appearances!  There doesn’t seem to be any metadata to reflect the date(s) of any of the positions.  Great concept but would benefit from fixes to the above….

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2025-07-30*

Most of the app map is covered with a white screen with advertisements. Then asked me to sign up to maps .

**Developer response:** Can you please e-mail a screenshot of this to innovate@thedreamfactory.nz ? We're unsure what map service you're being asked to sign up for and so far you're the only person to report having this issue.

The sponsors should only occupy a small banner along the bottom of the map, too.

Thank you

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-07-14, version 2.0*

### 1/5 — Average

*2024-01-07, version 1.0*

Sharks havnt moved in two weeks and seem to be able to swim across land 🤔

### 1/5 — Not tracking?

*2024-01-03, version 1.0*

All three tagged sharks have been inactive for 30+ days? Could be I’m doing something wrong but don’t think so. Great idea if it worked.

### 3/5 — Cool idea

*2025-07-13, version 2.0*

Map is only half the size of the screen looks like a glitch. I phone15

### 3/5 — Could be so great

Love the concept of this app - looking forward to further improvements.

### 4/5 — Fun and informative Great White App

*2025-06-18, version 2.0*

As an ocean swimmer who enjoys year-round ocean recreation this app is really interesting and easy to use  - will hopefully provide informative insights into the behaviour of these apex predators.

What an awesome app. How cool that we get to see these beautiful creatures and where they spend their time. Is there any future plans to track more species ? And how do I sponsor a tag please. I can’t wait to see more!!
