Robin1961 Posted February 24, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 24, 2017 has anyone tried this? Can you use your phone to call within the ship (not ship to shore) also can you text with in the ship? Cost? I know we have to down load the app. Before we board. Thank you in advance Robin & Angel D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCLfamily Posted February 24, 2017 #2 Share Posted February 24, 2017 It's great. Glitches occasionally, close and open app again. Think around $10.95 per device. Can text yes. Great for us with teen kids Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted February 24, 2017 #3 Share Posted February 24, 2017 each device needs to be registered and paid for. Then you can phone eachother onboard the ship. text eachother on the ship. Call ship to shore for $0.79 per minute (vs $2.99 pp for most US carriers). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnventure Posted February 26, 2017 #5 Share Posted February 26, 2017 If you all use iPhones, you don't need to buy the device package....iMessage works just by putting your iPhone in airplane mode and then connecting to the ships wifi (the free wifi that allows you to use the NCL app). My kids were even able to iMessage friends at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
