NCLfamily Posted March 3, 2020 #2 Share Posted March 3, 2020 It did for us, but that was a few years ago. It’s worked on every NCL ship we’ve been on Sent from my iPhone using Forums 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you are right, that would potentially be better than the messaging ap in the NCL ap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smplybcause Posted March 3, 2020 #7 Share Posted March 3, 2020 I believe NCL patched the loophole a while ago. I don't have an iPhone, but the stuff I used to be able to do with my Android without paying (when I knew iMessage was working with iPhones) has long since stopped working. Only thing I can do without paying is NCL's app -- and I guess maybe they let you go to cruise critic too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowlinmoe Posted June 30, 2022 #8 Share Posted June 30, 2022 When you message someone with the NCL app, do you need an internet plan? I'm assuming you don't need an internet plan to view everything else on the app such as daily events and whatnot, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CaptainBazz Posted June 30, 2022 #9 Share Posted June 30, 2022 You don't need an internet plan...you pay $9.95 for the messaging service on the app. You can only message people on the ship. Yes...the rest of the app works for free for events, accounts etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btc1951 Posted June 30, 2022 #10 Share Posted June 30, 2022 But how well does the messaging work on the NCL app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were a group of 10 and kept in touch quite easily. The messaging is fairly instant. The only problem we found was there was no 'sound' when a message arrived so you had to keep checking the app to see if there were any messages. Just so you know it uses the ships wifi.
