Free Carnival App (Android)

[Chirpbird]

My sister just told me about a free Android Carnival app - Ship Mate Carnival. It totally rocks - of course I'm obsessed with my cruise. You get a countdown, deck plans, itinerary, excursion info, current ship location and deck cam. I'm sure there's an IPhone app, too. :D

[lindan1020]

Yes Iphone has Shipmate too. It was free when I got it but I see now costs $1.99. Don't think I like it enough to pay for it.

[Cavners5]

Yes there is one for IPhone, but not free $1.99. Just bought it :D I am also obsessed with our cruise!

[Martini Mom]

That sucks for those of us without Smartphones. :(

Ditto!!! Why can't smartphones catch up?!?!?!

[AWCHIEF]

I got it free for Iphone several months ago. Not worth paying for as far as I a concerned. John has been floating rumors about an official Carnival app for phones.

[scgamecock]

That's kinda cool. Thanks!

Absolutely! I don't need all the extras. I can use the web etc. when I get home. But...this app would be fun to have.

[jenale80]

Awesome! Thanks to DH I got upgraded to a smartphone on V-day. Going to look for this app now ~ he is really going to think I am obsessed now.

I got me a Coby Kyros, which runs on Android...I just might download this app...looks good. I got me a cruise coming up in October...

I downloaded it to my I-Pod and think it will come in handy while trying to get around the ship the first few days. It has deck plans and a few other things I find useful. Of course I need directions to find anything.;

iPhone, iPod, iPad, iTunes, iPod Touch. I know this is a small thing, but because of where I work, it is just a pet peeve when people spell Apple products Ipod, I-Pod, etc. It is always a small i and big P, etc. Okay, rant over. No need to flame, I know I am a nerd. But I'm an Apple nerd. ;):D

[cruisinthemed]

My DF has it on his I-phone. I think it is awesome. I just got a Galaxy by Smsung & want to put it on there. It runs on the Android system. I don't know how to, or if it can be put on my Galaxy (a mini type I-pad, by Samsung). I would love to know how to upload it & show him. Any suggestions, as to how??? I don't mean to highjack.

[librarymom]

Downloading on my Droid right now, and it's free!

You HAVE been assimilated by the collective.

[silkhair1]

For those of you not wanting to get a smartphone because the high monthly bill there is a cheap option.

 

Virgin Mobile now has an Android phone the Optimus V they just increased the price of the phone from $149 to $199 but it is pre paid (No Contract) For $25 a month you get 300 voice min. Unlimited text and mms and unlimited data. $40 gets you 1200 min. plus unlimited everything else. and $60 unlimited everything.

 

The down side to this is you have to be on the Sprint network and some areas may have no service, I have only found one area near me where I do not have service but I rarely am in that area.

 

Check the coverage maps at the Virgin Mobile website.

I have used Virgin for 2 years and there are a few service outages from time to time but not that often.

I am very pleased with this phone and I love it.

The app is free for Android. Sucks to have Apple. :)

It was free months ago when it premiered on apple.

 

Funny how the Droids are always late to the apps.;)

 

Most apps are free to start, to get word of mouth out like this.

 

I'm sure it'll be $1.99 at the Android App store in June or July too.

Also for those not married to Carnival exclusively...

 

Shipmate also has apps for RCCL, NCL, Princess, HAL and Celebrity.

 

Also, RCCL, NCL and Celebrity have their own free apps.

 

Keep waiting for Carnival to join this decade.;)

 

There is also a Marine Traffic app that allows you to track any ship anywhere.

I forget how much it cost though. (I think it was $1.99, but I'm not positive.)
