Won’t work
Can’t get anything to work on my iPhone. App may be outdated
App crashes
This app continues to crash. I hope the creators and developers can take another look at it. When my screen opens up, it goes to profile that I cannot edit and will not let me go to the home screen.
Very Disappointed
Doesn’t work. Literally every link does not work. Will not help in the case of emergency, let alone in the case of planning a safe trip out to sea. Terrible. Expected much better from the USCG.
Outdated. Doesn’t work. Incompatible with latest iOS?
I just installed this after doing an online safety at sea course. I was excited to have the coast guard directly on my phone and be able to make float plans. However, the app buttons don’t work. Cannot make a profile, and there are no functions that can be used it seems unless you login. I noticed the last update was 6 years ago. It must be seriously outdated, probably the server is not being maintained or something like that. Very unreliable from a public service that promotes being reliable and dependable? I’m am negatively amazed about how bad this app is.

Doesn’t seems to work at all
I downloaded the app tried to enter information but nothing will open. I thought perhaps you had to “Agree” before you could enter. So I read thought all the information to the bottom but still could get the toggle switch to move. I deleted the app and tried reinstalling it to no avail. So I deleted it. Sad

It had great potential but…
I eventually found that I could neither edit or remove my boats once they were entered. This is now very problematic because they have been sold and new ones purchased. All my the details for my boats is outdated/inaccurate The SAVE button on the bottom of the screen cannot be reached and used. I finally just deleted the app.

Great APP and a MUST have for all boaters
Great App. Totally encompassing! Report a missing or AID outage, file a float plan, weather, Anonymous reporting of a crime, request a safety check of your vessel, look up NAV rules or rules of the road, Anonymous reporting of a pollution spill or Bolshevik pumping, NOAA buoy locations! This app is freaking awesome and will help boater immensely! Thank You Coast Guard

Good info but amateurish coding
I really want to like this app. It has good information and could potentially be a literal lifesaver. But it looks like it was also written by Coasties instead of professional coders.
When you save a vessel profile, there is no way to return to the home page. There are many other odd things about this app that limit its functionality and usefulness.
Could be very useful and a needed safety app, but not in its present state.

Please fix vessel edit!
I love being able to file a float plan with the USCG, but I need to update the photo of my vessel as the color has changed. This is too important in an emergency!
App Crash
App crashes anytime you want to look at the NOAA buoys. App needs to be updated with all bugs that other users have previously mentioned, too.
Great App
I especially like the Vessel Safety Check checklist. It helps refresh my mind on important equipment especially if I have not been on the water in a while
Cannot send float plan
No way to use at this time. Error message gives poor instructions. Finally taking a trip that warranted a formal plan and I can’t use the app Ive recommended to many others. Disappointed to say the least.

Needs to be fixed
The concept is great, but the application crashes a lot. Any time location services are used, like in the buoy selection, it just crashes.
I will see how the float plan works this summer

It’s crashing on NOAA Buoys.
Every time I press NOAA Buoys the app shuts down.
Long overdue for an update

NOAA buoys part not working.
It is a great tool but the NOAA buoys part stopped working about a month ago. As a professional boat delivery Captain I rely on that real time information to evaluate the reliability of other weather forecasts.
A For Effort
Very neat idea but designed poorly. Lots of bugs, several parts don’t work and already looks outdated. The NOAA beacon finder is about the only useful piece. Needs updating.
Could be a great app if the bugs are fixed
Once you save your vessel information, if you need to edit it, the Emergency Assistance button covers the save button. You can’t get to Save to update your profile. The navigation needs to be fixed. But good features if they can fix the small issues.
Can’t send float plan
A snag with the emails makes sending a float plan impossible. It says to resolve the issue by going to “settings -> mail, contacts calendar” but there is no such option under settings.
