Rare Astromaid Posted May 9, 2023 #1 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Does Viking offer a chat feature through the WiFi to send messages between myself and my husband? On other cruises we use this feature to find each other. We might be able to use Whatsapp, if not. Also do they offer accurate menus and activities on the Viking App?

formernuke Posted May 9, 2023 #2 Share Posted May 9, 2023 No chat feature. Yes menus that are pretty accurate are posted at least several days in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sugarside Posted May 9, 2023 #5 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Not being too serious here but if you both have Apple Air Tags and each of you has one with you then you can find each other 🤔😂. Could be useful if you got separated on an excursion? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LindaS272 Posted May 9, 2023 #6 Share Posted May 9, 2023 If you have iPhones your texting will be through iMessage which is web-based and not through cellular when connected to wi-fi. That’s how we communicate on the ship. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The location of my DW's devices are tracked in the Find My app on my iPhone and iPad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We always use WhatsApp and find it quite convenient! We even use it to connect with independent foreign tour operators for coordination - works great as they all seem to use it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
