cltnccruisers Posted February 6, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I installed the X App to my iPhone just out of curiosity. I imagine some options may only be available on board but if they flesh it out a bit - God, I hope it's not maintained by the same morons doing the website. Anyone have any experience with it? Only Constellation and Equinox available for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchita Posted February 6, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I used it on the Equinox last week and it worked beautifully. It was very convenient for keeping track of activities on the ship, times, locations etc.... You could find opening times for restaurants, bars Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you get menus on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchita Posted February 6, 2018 #4 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Yes, there is a “restaurants” section listing each restaurant including specialty restaurants. Below the restaurant name is the menu for that day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G900P using Forums mobile app The description of the app seems to indicate that it works with the free onboard wi-fi. But if they don't have Silhouette by the time we go in March I may never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cltnccruisers Posted February 6, 2018 Author #8 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I have never heard of free onboard wi-fi That's why I said "seems to indicate". I suppose it would be possible to have separate routers but I'm skeptical they would do that. So I take it you had the wi-fi package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchita Posted February 6, 2018 #9 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Yes, I had the wi-fi package Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cltnccruisers Posted February 6, 2018 Author #10 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Thinking this out a bit it really wouldn't be difficult. You have 2 routers. One you sell access to and it works as a gateway to the real world. The other serves up only the app so it's a free service. I'll find out if they add Silhouette before we go since I disconnect from the world as much as possible when I cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tulip2010 Posted February 6, 2018 #13 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Can it be downloaded while off the ship? Is it available for android phones? I searched but could not find. Does anyone know the name if I search in my device's app store. TIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchita Posted February 6, 2018 #14 Share Posted February 6, 2018 It’s called “Celebrity Cruises”. I downloaded from the Apple Store but I assume it would be available for Android devices also. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jelayne Posted February 6, 2018 #17 Share Posted February 6, 2018 My experience has been that I couldn’t find it in the App Store using my IPad but when I used my IPhone I found and download the app. After getting on my IPhone it appeared on my IPad. The IPhone version crashes every time I try to use it but the IPad version works great. The info for our cruise is there but a bit generic at this point as it relates to the activities but Im Thinking it could be great when it is a true version of the daily and with the menus, spa specials etc included Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bessinfl Posted February 6, 2018 #18 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I was able to download it for the Equinox. But our trip isn’t until May, and it only gave me date choices in February. I couldn’t figure out how to get around those dates on the site. I guess I’ll try in April. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're on Silhouette this March then probably Reflection in Sept 2019. Hopefully they aren't letting this stagnate and we'll get some use out of it eventually.

G.C Posted February 6, 2018 #21 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Just down loaded the app and looked around our sailing on the Equinox next week. Very helpful works well on my Apple phone. Thanks for bringing this up! I had no idea based on terrible X website experience the app would be so much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An open question is whether or not one needs to buy the wi-fi package to get full functionality on board. Since your cruise is near could you check on board?

I downloaded it on both IPhone 6 Plus and IPad. I can open the app and select the ship and the sail day but when I press the sail date the App crashes. After that it won't even work up. If I uninstall and re-install I get the same crash symptoms. BTW - to down load on Ipad you have to go to the top where it says IPad only and change to IPhone Only and you will find it.
