I was hoping the app store description would show which ones were just added so I could report the additions here. I guess if anybody is interested to see if their ship has been added they can download the app and give it a try.

What exactly does this mean & how does it work? On Symphony I believe.. Actually, you don't need the app for expedited boarding, just have your printed seapass and your passport.

gqboy1 Posted December 14, 2018 #254 Share Posted December 14, 2018 looks like my booked events are no longer showing up on "My Calendar". It's still on the cruise planner site though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any idea how I can fix that? We sale on Allure in February. Thanks for your help! Well - just logged in again and the sip time is correct again! Hope it stays this time! Now, if only my calendar items would come over from the cruise planner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cantgetaname Posted December 16, 2018 #257 Share Posted December 16, 2018 I've just downloaded the app now that the ship I'm sailing on next is supported. Sailing on Harmony but not till Feb 2020. At moment it's just showing my reservation information and says to check back at a later time. I'm assuming any features I can use on the app will be later on. Anyone know what features etc I can expect from the app on Harmony? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare whitshel Posted December 25, 2018 #259 Share Posted December 25, 2018 Was just checking the Royal app to see by chance if the LOS has been added yet for our Jan 6th sailing and its on there now 🙂 Quick question, if the ships are live on the app does that mean we will be able to text each other while onboard(I know different ships have different functions on the app)? Is there a cost for this? It also lists Izumi Express in the dinning tab, says deck 5 midship but when you click the link to bring up the deck I don't see it in the RP. Does Liberty have an Izumi? Or is this just a flaw? Glad its been added, kinda cool to see the planner already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrikeEagle Posted December 25, 2018 #260 Share Posted December 25, 2018 (edited) I can confirmed the Royal App now includes Liberty of the Seas. It shows up on my upcoming LOS in March next year. Not sure about texting on the Royal App for LOS. Last time on Oasis, Royal App doesn't support texting.

CRUISEFAN0001 Posted January 2, 2019 #264 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Just had the chance to use the "old" RCI app recently on Ovation, while also using the new one on Oasis earlier last year. Honestly...they both do some basic things "OK"...but they also both have plenty of "opportunity" for improvement. App performance is only fair, and the existing features are mostly redundant presentations of existing information provided elsewhere, with little interactive user experiences. Onboard "chat" texting (for free without WIFI service) to other passengers remains a highly desired capability that currently doesn't meet plenty of passenger expectations based on multiple conversations in the main dining room on a recent cruise. As long as RCI treats their technology items like a "hobby" instead of strategic consumer-facing part of their business that warrant quality tech resources (yes...that includes their website)...they're going to turn off plenty of folks towards long-term loyalty - and this is coming from a historically loyal RCI customer 1 cruise shy of Diamond.

Ocean Boy Posted January 2, 2019 #265 Share Posted January 2, 2019 They should not include the Compass in the app if they cannot make it accurate. What good does it do to have it if you have to refer back to the printed Compass to be sure you have the right information? If anything, the electronic Compass should be the more accurate one as it could be updated at any time. The printed one is what it is once it goes to print.

FloridaMac Posted January 10, 2019 #269 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I downloaded the mobile app. It has a great list of things to do for each day, and it has a blank personal calendar. Problem is, there doesn't seem to be any way of putting the activities, shows, etc. on my calendar. Anyone know how this works? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biker19 Posted January 10, 2019 #270 Share Posted January 10, 2019 You can’t as of now- only things you bought in the planner or on board go in the calendar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted January 10, 2019 #271 Share Posted January 10, 2019 (edited) If you see something on the app that you want to add, swipe left on the activity, and it will be added to your calendar. It doesn’t appear you can enter anything else on your own. We we bought a 3 night dining package precruise, and made dining time reservations onboard. Thought those would show up, but they never did.

On Allure at Christmas we had the ultimate dining package. All the reservations I made on day 1 showed up on the app by day 2. This feature most likely hadn’t been rolled out to the ship that you were on yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zenworks911 Posted January 10, 2019 #274 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Seriously, don't count on the app, on Harmony, some stuff would show up on calendar one day and then be gone the next, leaving you to wonder if your reservation was cancelled or if you forgot to make one. I would print your reservation schedule just before cruise. Everyone in are party had same issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
