Dont know what you have done, but since this last update it simply does not work. Its updated on two phones on different android levels. Doesnt work now on either. Prior to this I loved it, now it is of no use. Please address issue, or revert back to previous level.

I am using the app fome some years now and I think it is the best free app on the market. Quick responding, no ads(or at least doesn't bother me), good optimisation for my android phone and even better after the last update. Very good job guys!

Initially had problems with the new display not scrolling or showing map and track buttons. Needed to update my version of "Android System Webview" app, and now everything working OK again.

Use this app regularly and was brilliant until recentupdate. Since the update it won't scroll to enable viewing of UK East Coast ? All sorted now. Thanks for the pointers.

Just had the update, can't tell which way a ship is facing when docked. Used to be able to see relative size of ships, big 399m container ship looks the same as a 199m ship ...not useful at all.
