Disappointed

I used to see boats. I upgraded and they all went away. Frustrating as I can see them on the water but they don’t show on the app anymore

Disappointed

I paid for the upgrade before my cruise in order to track other ships. The upgrade was no better than the basic service which was dismal at best. Very disappointed in the accuracy of this app. Spending the money for the upgrade was a waste of money. The updates were so far behind and inaccurate that is was useless. Very frustrating to deal with. Don’t waste your time or money downloading.

Not what I expected

Although being able to see where ships are, it’s sad that you pay for the “one time upgrade” and then find that everything else within the app costs an additional charge. So they mislead you to believe that once you’ve upgraded, you won’t be charged again……. False. False false. Don’t waste your money on this.

Hi

Sorry to hear this. The one time upgrade refers to the upgrade to the Pro version to get more ship details including last port, photos, destination, eta etc. which is a one time purchase as opposed to a subscription. This also includes the features on the free companion Apple Watch BoatWatch app. There are additional features available via In App Purchase such as NOAA US and UK/IE charts which cost us more to provide and we charge for these separately as not everyone will want them.

Best regards
The PocketMariner crew
