Visibility of vessels in the App depends on AIS signal availability. If a particular vessel is out of our AIS coverage zone, VesselFinder displays her last reported position and updates it as soon as the vessel comes into range. Completeness and accuracy of the information provided cannot be guaranteed.

Ratings and reviews

Besides the obligatory ads and urges to pay $100+ per year... not bad! Not up to date; but they're at the behest of the vessel owners, no way around personal privacy. Needs a call to arms for photo submissions and verifications of contributor data. SUGGESTION: Add a 'next' button that displays the next closest ship in the area; i had issues that stacked the dots, i couldn't get the data from 3 of 4 markers.

This app used to be very informative. Gave us the ability to locate and identify ships coming into our area so we could view them passing. Now it is completely worthless. No free data available at all. If you want any ship location information you must subscribe to satellite at $116/ month. Pro version is the same. I have Uninstaller & reinstalled three times. I give up. We're back to year 2000. Thanks for nothing, Vesselscam!

there is no gps locator on this, but it does seem to remember the last location. there is another app with this exact name making it confusing at times. if it can't find a ship it says - satellite position and nothing more. it seems to happen to ships inland and in the middle of the ocean. more often than not however, it can't seem to find anything about the main ships out in the ocean. it makes it really frustrating to use.
