Ratings and reviews

I would not recommend this app or Iridium Go! to anyone until these long-overdue crashing issues have been resolved. I have been trying to use this with Iridium Go! This app doesn't work fully with any recent versions of Android. I have wasted $150 of airtime trying to access a very basic text based web page (less than 1kb in size) and have been unable to do so. The app crashes often on each of the 5 devices I have tried it on. This app needs an update and some proper testing. A very frustrating and costly experience.

Amazing resource to have when at sea. When passaging from NZ to Fiji it's incredible to have contact with friends and family despite being days and days from any land. It's comforting to know you can reach people if needed. It has worked well for us. Yes it's slow and a bit clunky at times but you just get used to using it and telling friends and companies you might be contacting not to send attachments. Overall I love it!

The update doesn't spool messages to be sent, they just disappear after pressing send. The sent folder, drafts folder, etc. are no longer accessible. This update just made Iridium Mail useless for anything but receiving mail.
