Ship Finder
🇰🇷 KR LocalizedScreenshots
Description
Ship Finder shows live moving ships on a worldwide map. The intuitive design combined with incredible performance puts you in control. Watch in full screen, view in AR, search, add filters and so much more! Ship Finder has been top rated and top ranking since 2009 and covers most of the world, tracking 30,000+ ships simultaneously. Our incredible app performance means that you can see all tracked vessels at once. Simply tap a ship to see its name, type, photos, speed, dimensions and much more. Powerful features such as filters, search, night mode and the ability to save favourite ships are included. (You can choose Apple or Google maps too!). Add and browse bookmarks to saved locations around the globe to quickly navigate to areas or ports of interest. You can even use Augmented Reality (AR) view to identify ships out at sea using your device camera. Ship Finder works by picking up AIS ship feeds used by all passenger vessels, vessels over 300 tons and increasingly by smaller pleasure craft and yachts. This technology is actually faster than radar and is used by vessels for safety and navigation. Ship Finder provides near real time “virtual radar” AIS maps. It’s easy to use and is an amazing app for anyone interested in shipping, cruising and sailing in ports and locations across the world. It’s also great if you simply want to know what boats are out there or want to see where your friends and family are. Ship Finder is also used extensively by maritime professionals and mariners. Our global AIS coverage is impressive and expanding all of the time as we add new AIS feeds and receivers. Please check www.shipfinder.co regularly to see the latest coverage.

User Reviews
There are 14 ships in the company I worked for, and only 2 show up on this app.
Where are all the ships? This app displays only 10% of shipping.
I just purchased this app to view the route or vessels. I spent time looking for how to search for a specific vessel. I would love someone from the app to let me know why I can’t any vessels and their routes.
Lacking coverage. Why is the Panama Canal showing zero marine traffic? The entirety of the Suez Canal. Both the southern,central and northern portions of which show zero traffic . South Korea and vicinity, no traffic shown. The three locations previously mentioned have some of the highest rates of shipping traffic in the world . Indian Ocean, South China Sea, mid Atlantic, mid Pacific Ocean no traffic shown. Kodiak Island, the Aleutian chain chain no traffic shown.
Started off good on the ship my family was on and then all of a sudden it couldn’t find it at all. Also looked up another popular cruise ship and it never did find it. 3 other tracker sites had no problem with either one. Can’t believe I wasted $4.99 on this app.
This app does not show any marine traffic in the greater Atlantic basin, not worth the fee paid
I am sad that this app locates less than 1/4 of the vessels I see from my home. I live near the Carquinez Straight in CA. Do NOT buy this app if you want to identify vessels in the Straight and perhaps other smaller ports, etc.
Down loaded Ship Finder Lite app first and was disappointed it did not show three cruise ships passing my hotel while vacationing in the Bahamas. So I downloaded for $4.99 the Ship Finder app with same disappointing results. Cannot not find a cruise ship tracking app that is any good. I wish there was a app like flight radar 24. Do not waste your money on this app.
This used to be an awesome app, the equivalent of Flightradar24 for ships. That was years ago, now it barely shows any ships at all: on an average day, it displays less than half those visible on Marine Traffic, so why bother?
I wanted to track a vessel that carries my container to Europe but after a few days in the Caribbean it is untracked and i can’t see where it is. I found more info online and for free. Please don’t waste your money and believe the description. It’s not much money but it’s not worth it.
