smokeybandit Posted May 29, 2023 #2 Share Posted May 29, 2023 It's a basic, bare boned messaging app with a feel of your everyday text message app. There are notifications but they rarely are sent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ozark_Kid Posted May 29, 2023 #3 Share Posted May 29, 2023 On Ovation last month it did not work well. Maybe a couple of times it went through right away. Most of the time it did not. It is not something to rely on while on Ovation. Like a lot of things, it properly is different on each ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You start with the link in the three dots in the upper right of the app after you connect to the ship Wi-Fi.

Mr. Green Posted May 30, 2023 #5 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Connect to the ships free Wi-Fi for using the RC App. Three dots in the upper right hand corner. Just a note, minors cannot use the app due to laws and it will not allow them no matter what you do. IMO, it sucks as it does not give you any notifications and you need to keep checking it for messages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought it would be easier than FB Messenger. But some chats didn't come through for hours. We saw each other's messengers via Messengr within a few minutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will be traveling with 2 15 year olds. Will they be able to use this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the app not working good we have been getting the internet and then putting our phones in wifi calling mode. I know it's not free but it works. With wifi calling we can text between android and apple phones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was stated above ‘minors’. Just trying to find out the minor age. 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, if you really want to get around that, you can sign in under your own name on multiple devices, our 11 yr old used my sign in info and we could chat with him through the app when we needed to.
