## Ship Finder Lite Description
Ship Finder shows live moving ships on a worldwide map.
You can even use Augmented Reality (AR) view to identify ships out at sea using your device camera. 

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 on a ship to see it's name, type and destination. Colour coded icons make identification easy too.

If you like this app you'll love the full version of Ship Finder.

The full version includes a huge array of additional features including route history, search, filters, bookmarks, photos, the ability to add favourite ships and much more.

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.

Pinkfroot are committed to customer service and continually improve our Ship Finder apps based on feedback. Why not join our online community at www.pinkfroot.com or if you have any questions please email us via support@pinkfroot.com and we’ll be happy to help.

## Ship Finder Lite Reviews in United Kingdom

### *---- "Useless"
Not seeing half the ships other app see
Waste of money
-- Finbob@“&, 2024-05-04

### *---- "No coverage"
We used to have coverage around Jersey, Channel Islands and to St Malo France. Despite emailing the app to notify them of this issue NOTHING has been done to rectify the problem. Please help!!
-- Mike-cash, 2024-04-21

### *---- "Disappointing"
I’ve had this app for 12 years and to be honest it has less going for it now than it did when first downloaded. Apart from ships close to shore (and even then there’s lots missing) it serve’s absolutely no purpose and I only keep it because I’ve had it for so long.
-- Sean1manc, 2024-03-30

### *---- "No search facility- rubbish"
Can’t find a way to search for or follow a specific vessel. Might be me, but no use to me.
-- wantsomesun, 2023-10-24

### *---- "Terrible"
Doesn’t show ships just tries to get you to upgrade and pay
-- SSpiglet, 2023-10-01

### ***** "Entertaining and informative."
This is a very interesting and interactive site. You can roam around learning about shipping,harbours and routes. Good if you are at the coast and curious about the boats that you see.
-- nollieglic, 2023-09-16

### *---- "Good app spoiled"
Frankly unusable with full page timed apps popping up every few seconds.
-- Skeeterm5, 2023-08-18

### *---- "Was good, now useless"
The search facility seems to have disappeared making somewhat pointless
-- siamesetomcat, 2023-08-07

### *---- "Ships Missing"
Hundreds of ships are missing when comparing this app with other ship Finder apps. There must be something wrong with the backend integration. Currently useless until fixed.
-- BitcoinHodl, 2022-12-07

### ***** "Disconcerted when I read so many negative reviews..."
Appears fairly reliable until you enter Southampton Waters n notice that the missing cruise liners are an issue. Just use it for occasional interest since can't be seen as a serious app - YET... Hence I won't upgrade till the dependability improves... Good start though!!
-- NorrieForster, 2022-07-04

### ***** "Sf finder"
I love it.
-- Primate 1969, 2022-06-02

### ***** "Fascinating"
Frequently crossing the Thames on the QEll bridge, it’s interesting to be able to ID the vessels either side. I’m typing this looking out to sea from Limassol and I now know which cruise liners I’m seeing, moored up.
-- fhhtefhm, 2022-04-14

### *---- "Not good, not worth upgrading"
Doesn’t show all marine traffic and the AR doesn’t show anything..!!!!
-- malcy34, 2022-03-14

### *---- "Advert city"
This is ridiculous !  Adverts ok, we don’t mind a few, but every time you touch the screen ??
 DONT BOTHER DOWNLOADING IT FOLKS
-- parcelfarce trier, 2022-02-28

### *---- "Waste of money"
Waste of money, doesn’t find anything local even when you can see it and AG is also useless.
-- Andywhan, 2021-09-22

### *---- "Avoid too many ads"
Too many adds and very limited functionality in the free version
-- Dejc12x, 2021-06-21

### *---- "Useless"
Used this today as a huge dredger type vessel past immediately in front of me and absolutely nothing indicating it on this App so as above, USELESS if it doesn’t show SHIPS!!!!
-- Legneeuk, 2021-06-12

### ****- "Amazing"
I think it is amazing because I can track the ships I’m interested in
-- Bugie 01, 2021-03-31

### *---- "Suez Canal"
Rubbish app shows no ships at all in Suez Canal   There are 100,s
-- Paulne00, 2021-03-29

### *---- "Waste of money"
I downloaded and paid for the full version of the app whilst the Ever Given was stuck in the Suez Canal, the app didn’t pick up a single vessel in the area. Don’t waste your money.
-- Phil7273, 2021-03-29
