Ratings and reviews

Both of the ferries I needed to take today where delayed each by 20 minutes, so I got to my destination2 hours late. And, The concession stand on the 2nd ferry could only accept cash so the attendant told me to use the app. I tried using the app and I kept getting an error message that the app has a bug that I would have to update the app after the developer fixes the issue...😡

I don't know what was going on, I don't use this app & it's been a few years since I've ridden a NYC Ferry, so I just uninstalled, but recently I started noticing that when following links from other apps (definitely noticed with Twitter), a message would pop up in my default browser (Duck Duck Go) saying "You can open this link in NYC Ferry", with a link to do so. I don't know why NYC Ferry would be registered as an alternative app to open random webpages in, but it stopped after uninstalling

In normal times this App works well. But during modified schedules (including today, during Thanksgiving) it gave the updated schedule on some cell phones but NOT others in our family. Uninstalling and reinstalling the App worked (showed the modified schedule of today correctly) on my wife's cell phone (happens to be an Iphone) but NOT on my Android (Google Pixel 6A) cell phone. Others suffered similarly - they showed up at the at the wrong time, misled by the schedule displayed on their App
