Before accessing any information you either have to sign in or create an account of which I tried via the create an account via linking my Google account option, but it doesn't work as such just takes me to a white error page rendering this app utterly disappointing, useless & broken. Oh well plenty other apps in the sea of this type am sure more than #1 of them will work, like me you're better off looking elsewhere & or for a working app of this type, avoid this #1 it's a waste of broken time.

Trying to get 5 stars when they limit you upon the already very limited data you are able to find. Tries to force you to buy the "upgraded" version.... Like most other "tracking" apps, the accuracy is not even close, yet they want you to buy an upgraded version to see more data. Nope! Deleting just as I do when I find any app is trying to force me to buy because they think they have me "reeled in"...

This app slowly stops working. I don't know if it's be ause I won't upgrade but, flight radar I can track aircraft all say long. Can't imagine the tech is that much different for shippjng, but at first I could see any ship. Then it started to take forever to load, now I can't see any ships despite trying to refresh. I've had this app for less than 3 weeks.
