Regent Phone App

[Kane]

Getting geared up for Grandeur cruise in a couple of months, I found the Regent app on my phone.  I must have used it earlier this year, but the experience must have been underwhelming as I don't have good memories of using it.

 

Is anyone using on board these days and, if so, what are your experiences?

 

TIA

It’s an information-only app that only works once you’re connected to the ship’s WiFi.

We had it on Grandeur earlier this year. I agree - underwhelming!  Dining menus were often missing or incomplete. Seems like there would be a lot of useful things they could add to the functionality but so far haven't.

We started to use the app on the Grandeur this spring, but the menus were so inaccurate that we gave up on it.

For example: Often the same menu was on at least part of the specialty restaurants. My first clue was when I said to my husband "Look Chartreuse has the duck/watermellon salad too!" (That whole part of Chartreuse's menu was Pacific Rim.)

The best Regent phone app is to take a picture of each page of the daily bulletin and, if desired, the in-suite on-screen menus for the venues.

I save Passages every day as a .PDF so I always have it with me, and then I don't have to take the physical copies home with me.

We just got off Explorer last week and were told the app didn't work at all "yet", because the software was still being worked on.
