BLAMBKY Posted August 21, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 21, 2022 The last time the app worked spotty but that was before Covid 2019. How is the app working now, specifically the chat feature. I heard the muster drill was being handled through the app, is this still the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiseguy1016 Posted August 21, 2022 #3 Share Posted August 21, 2022 The muster drill can be accessed in the app but it can also be accessed from your stateroom TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MsSoCalCruiser Posted August 22, 2022 #6 Share Posted August 22, 2022 We will be paying the $1.99 extra per day, per person for the chat feature. How does that work? How do you receive the notification when someone sends you a message? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The app doesn't list all of the activities and their times. The daily compass is a lot more accurate than the app. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you receive the notification when someone sends you a message? It's my understanding that there is no notification, thus making you check your phone a lot. Everyone on your chat list needs to sign up and pay for the service. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdwest Posted August 22, 2022 #9 Share Posted August 22, 2022 We found it to be a waste of money. Our cruise on Harmony with the kids: I couldn't "reach" our oldest son. I did go to guest services twice...they couldn't figure out the issue. Also, as stated above, you must be "on" the chat to see if you have a message...just not worth the hassle to us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danoconnl Posted August 23, 2022 #10 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Used the chat feature on the app for our last odyssey cruise. we bought it mostly to keep in touch since she'll sleep in a bit more than me and I usually go and sit somewhere while she gets ready i nthe evening. Not a big deal to not have the chat feature but it was a brand new ship and a class we had never been on. Waste of money. Since it doesn't niotify you of a new message, you have to be constantly checking the app. We missed connections several times and generally found it poor to wrk with. Eventually found myself sitting with the app open on the table next to me and refreshing every few minutes to make sure I didn't miss a message.
