Norwegian iconcierge app question

[Vitamin_Sea]

Can we use this app onboard as a means of sending messages​?

 

As we send text messages on land?

 

Or is just for ship information?

Is there a per day fee?

 

Thanks

I believe it's something like a one-time fee of $15 per device, at least on the away ships.

 

Someone will probably come and say it's $7.95, but I've seen people say it's been bumped to $15 recently. May not know for sure until you board.

Yea, sorry. It's been a bit since I sailed so I didn't want to give you wrong info on the price, just trying to show what features were available. Someone will wander in and let you know the latest prices.

1. Yes, iconcierge is free to download and use on the ship but to send messages there's a 1 time fee per phone. In Jan we did 10 days on the jade and the cost was $10.

 

2. No, it doesn't use your phone number or let you use iMessage or anything, it ONLY lets you communicate through the app to other people on the ship.

It's $9.95 on the Spirit right now.

Thanks for the information.

 

I was on the dreaded star sailing(broken azipod). I had the app downloaded and during the cruise, all of a sudden I got a message from my son. We ended up texting back and forth several times and I was never charged. He was in USA, I was in Asia. So, I am not sure if it has changed recently or if I wasn't charged by mistake. Thanks for the heads up.

 

How do they charge you? Do you agree to the charge? I would have been upset if I was charged without knowing, as I thought I would be charged by my carrier, not the ship. I will be sure to block that from happening on my next sailing.
