I think they ruined it.
It’s not great at first look.
Anyone know how to make the ships and tugs be the proper size instead of just arrows?
Now seeking subscriptions to see the old functionality. Shame but understandable.
Yeah, pay them more money (I don’t know for sure, but it wouldn’t surprise me).
Way to ruin a perfectly good product.
No Time stamps on tracks unless you pay.
Yeah, got the pop-up to write a review on it. Not sure they’re going to like what I had to say. Haven’t gotten a single notification about “my fleet” since they changed the app, and the new app just plain sucks all around.
They’re pretty proud of it, but I’ll be damned if I can figure out what there is to be proud of.
Update your app, the developer finally fixed how vessel length and width is displayed. New feature also includes a course line when underway.
Still crappy
Anyone have experience with other apps for ship tracking? Recommendations? Even the paid version of marine traffic is glitchy, and it drops all my information with every update.
I’m using VesselFinder. It’s not perfect but it’s more like the old MarineTraffic app. I can deal with its imperfections easier than the willful destruction of "this works great! Let’s change it 100% and drive off our entire professional user base.
They really did destroy a great App for no reason at all. I can understand saying “We need to make more money. Let’s start charging more.” Ok fine. But did you have to redo the entire app and make it demonstrably worse in the process? Wtf…
Is anyone having trouble editing their profile? If you click on the blue profile icon in the bottom right I get a big white page with no information popping up?
Also: did they get rid of the replay route feature? When you could play a vessels course and speed along the track and it would follow it?
