### 1/5 — Was good, now useless

*2020-11-21, version 2.6*

Please update your app team

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2018-04-21*

My boat has ais. It never finds it. It shows it south of Ghana Africa. Even though it is in Florida.

### 1/5 — Downloaded and removed

*2016-09-17*

Downloaded and removed.
Went to required website to register.  Costs too much and free offer is minimal.

### 1/5 — Log in

*2015-05-09, version 2.5*

Yep, where the hell can you log in for this ap

### 1/5 — Registration/login need Attention

*2015-01-14*

The app lacks ability to register. #FAIL

### 1/5 — Needs a login..

*2014-05-15, version 2.5*

... And no obvious way to create one from the app!
Be nice if that was mentioned on the description somewhere.

### 1/5 — No good

*2013-07-24*

Junk. Can't register therefore can't login.

### 1/5 — Don't bother

*2012-03-07*

Completely useless.

### 1/5 — Good in principle

*2012-02-07, version 2.0*

This free app is a taster demo version which lets you access limited features like search name & photo of ships, ports of the world and a map zoomable showing vessels by type (see legend)
To get any useful info you need to subscribe to a better version via their website.

### 1/5 — Horrible, horrible app

*2011-10-10*

I only gave in one star because giving a ZERO star is not an option. A huge lack of general information even after I was able to sign in. No ship names, horrible graphics, lousy user interface, no options to eliminate certain kinds of traffic i.e. if you only want to see passenger ship traffic and nothing else. There are much better apps like Marine Traffic. Vessel Tracker is awful.
