User Reviews

NW Ferry is valued for ease of use and real-time data, including ferry positions, open spaces, and alerts, plus reservations for some routes, making it an essential tool for regular users. However, reviews repeatedly flag data reliability and timeliness issues, missing features like ETA and favorites, performance problems, platform limitations (watch compatibility) and perceived value concerns. Some users also cite UI/UX annoyances. Overall, the app is useful but its usefulness is limited by data quality, feature gaps, and stability.

Pros

Easy to use and quick to read schedules
Real-time ferry positions and open space data for planning
Alerts/notifications for delays or wait times
Reservations on some routes to avoid long lines
Indispensable tool for daily ferry users

Cons

Data reliability: wait times and space data are often inaccurate or not timely
Missing critical features: real-time arrivals/ETAs, favorites, home-screen widget, and complete car-load data on all routes
Stability issues: app is slow, crashes, and sometimes fails to update information
Platform and cost concerns: Apple Watch app may not open; paid app vs free alternatives; widget feature not delivered as claimed
UI/UX irritants: frequent rating prompts and chaotic updates that hurt usability

There are so many things broken about the WSF app I can’t even start. This app needs to be better integrated in the UI needs major simplification.

Easy to use, we check it every time we use the ferry.

I was in search of a Ferry app for my Apple Watch Ultra 2 it works perfectly on my phone but on my watch is a different story it will not open at all. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling/ app, restarting phone and watch and nothing makes it work.
