I can appreciate that they is more info, but the home screen seem⁶s reall; y busy, the "vessels near me" used to be much quicker, and it's difficult to find it on the map if there's a lot of traffic. there used to be a nice clean list of vessels arranged by distance. I like how the vessel info is formatted now, but overall the app doesn't seem as user friendly.

Marine traffic used to be my go to app It was very simple and easy to read and use. It would actually show the most current ship positions, ship direction, etc. Now when you open the app, it shows a white screen until you realized it is zoomed all the way in. The contrast between land and water is terrible and seems backwards from what it should be. The ship positions are way off and not recent The entire app with this recent update, in my opinion, is just terrible all around.

Full time sailboat cruiser here. Used this app since day 1 of our travels. The newest update is absolutely terrible. I gave it a couple months for me to get used to it as many major changes often do. Unfortunately I still find it difficult to use, cluttered and delayed location updates. I'll be trying out other competitors to see about changing away from MT completely. Too bad they screwed it up so much.
