## Description

VesselFinder Pro is the premier ad-free vessel-tracking extension, delivering real-time ship positions via a broad AIS receiver network along with detailed vessel data such as name, flag, type, IMO, MMSI, destination, ETA, draught, course, speed, and gross tonnage. 

Features include port calls with arrival and departure information, 7-day movement history, My Fleet synchronization with VesselFinder.com, search by name/IMO/MMSI, map filters by vessel type, user-contributed ship photos, multiple map styles (Simple, Detailed, Dark, Satellite), weather layers, distance measurement, and see-your-location. Coverage depends on AIS signal availability.

## Review summary

Most recurring issues across reviews are reliability and value: maps fail to render, data lags or stays static, and access to data via paid subscriptions is expensive and often mandatory. Users also report crashes and login problems after updates, with many noting the app is less accurate than rivals. Overall, the app is viewed as overpriced for limited, unreliable functionality.

### Cons

- Map fails to load or render correctly (blue screen / missing map) across multiple reviews
- Vessel positions not updating or out-of-date for long periods
- Pricing and subscription model seen as overpriced or coercive: need additional subscriptions for data and satellite data often extremely expensive
- App instability: crashes, not opening, login/server errors after updates
- Perceived lower accuracy compared to competitors; information available elsewhere; not worth the premium
