KruzPrincess Posted September 10, 2021 #3 Share Posted September 10, 2021 My friend is going to be so upset. She never wanted a smartphone. Ever. She just went out and bought one because she needed the Princess app. PS. We know there were workarounds, but she wanted to do it herself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sea Hag Posted September 10, 2021 #5 Share Posted September 10, 2021 I think this is sooooo funny! I'm glad to see them doing it, and I think the whole app deployment has been a disaster. But it soooo funny! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare geoherb Posted September 10, 2021 #6 Share Posted September 10, 2021 One of my suggestions on my survey after my cruise last month was make it possible for people to do things multiple ways. The example I used was the onboard spending statements. They were just available through the app (and I found it impossible to read on my phone) or through guest services. I used to be able to see them on the TV and on my computer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the same thing, $1,300 later a new phone I didn't need or want! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare leck57 Posted September 10, 2021 #8 Share Posted September 10, 2021 I would use this instead of using my smart phone. Desk based stuff is just easier to complete. I'll save using my smart phone until we are on board. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beg3yrs Posted September 10, 2021 #10 Share Posted September 10, 2021 It will probably work as well as the phone-based apps. Don't get your hopes up... 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalLuvsCrusingToo Posted September 10, 2021 #12 Share Posted September 10, 2021 So pretty much what we Had been doing. And what I suggested in my survey. Obviously its been in the works awhile. Better late than never....😏 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2 cruises a year Posted September 10, 2021 #14 Share Posted September 10, 2021 1 hour ago, Astro Flyer said: Reinventing the wheel ☺️ Yes, but how long do you think it will take? Judging by their work on Medallion Class, it won't be soon. And if they try to "fix" the original, I can't imagine how badly they can mess it up before ending up with something inferior to what they started with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hpeabody Posted September 10, 2021 #15 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Early on there was companion website which they disabled some time ago. They will probably be resurrecting it in some way. I too hope a website becomes a reality. If it is available in November maybe then I will be able to add my mid January cruise which the app will not allow me to add. It thinks it already there ... NOPE, IT'S NOT. Ocean Navigator people have not been able to help. Looks like I may have to go in the yellow line. UGH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the positive side you can also use your phone to DL the At Home Testing App as well and any other Travel Apps. This is the direction the world is moving in so you will be better off for the phone purchase in the long run. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SargassoPirate Posted September 10, 2021 #23 Share Posted September 10, 2021 The whole Medallion thing is a prime example of what happens when you let the whiz kids sit at the big table. I never could get the app to work on my old Moto phone, so I just showed up at the pier and checked in the old fashioned way. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skynight Posted September 10, 2021 #24 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Finally. Never should have eliminated the personlizer. App only was a business error. It's an error to force customers to purchase or have specific hardware just to take a vacation. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
