Ratings and reviews

Arrived in Cape Cod yesterday. So far this app is updated asap with any mew alert (sighting, detailed info about it, etc.) Here's a suggestion for the developers: After taping a notification icon a short message window opens. Tapping the i (for more info) shows details regarding the alert. It would be a nice feature to share this with other people. A "share" icon would be a mice feature in that info window i think.

Kinda disappointing. It just shows user sightings of sharks - not the kind of "tracking" I imagined. Many of the info bubbles don't really have any info. I tried tracking one of the tagged sharks and it showed a few places where it was sighted, but they all had the same photo and didn't really give any actual information about the shark...

I thought this would be an interesting app. However, when I want to see wherethe sightings are, the app says it can't calculate because i denied location permission. Doesn't seem like this permission is necessary if i want to see all the sightings on the map. But i guess it doesnt work that way. Then, i get just one sighting, which was in Rhode Island. Really...? Just one sighting in the last two days, in this entire country? This could be a really cool app, but for now, I am uninstalling.
