What’s New Version 112

- Performance improvement - Added date time for data retrieval

Description

Welcome to Expedition White Shark, the world’s first app designed to track adult white sharks in real time! To make this possible, scientists at the Marine Conservation Science Institute (MCSI) attached custom satellite tags to the dorsal fin of adult Great White Sharks, allowing us to follow their movements from Satellites orbiting the earth. Expedition White Shark allows you to receive near real time Great White Shark tracking data at the same time as the research scientists. Positions for the tagged sharks can only be calculated when a shark is at the surface with its dorsal fin out of the water for several minutes; since sharks are not always finning we receive intermittent position data from our sharks, but each signal beamed to us form space adds to our growing knowledge of the life history of this species. Since you are getting our data in near real time you will notice that the satellites sometimes make mistakes, placing the shark far from its actual location; we correct these errors later, when we analyze the data. The MCSI satellite tagging of Great White Sharks has led to many important new findings regarding white shark biology, and each new day brings promise of a new discovery that you can make with us! Use the shark filter to select a specific shark or see the last position for all sharks of a specific species, or select current to see shark positions within the last 30 days. If current is selected the last position for a shark that appears on the map as a dorsal fin , while sharks with historical location data on today’s date in previous years are marked with dot. This allows users to look for patterns of where sharks may be found during that time of year. Keep up with the latest research insights posted by Dr. Michael Domeier and Nicole Nasby-Lucas, by following us on Facebook www.facebook.com/MarineCSI and Instagram @marinecsiorg.

Not worth it
This app costs money and it’s not worth it. After buying abd downloading it, I found that the satellite pings show the sharks to be on land. The only “land sharks” I know of were on SNL! It’s clearly not accurate. I recommend OCEARCH app. It’s free and it’s quite accurate. Not only is their app good, but I’m sold on their work. I plan to donate to them soon!

I like it- may have saved a few people
1) I surf in waters where big sharks hunt 1.) my friend’s kids were in the water at El Capitan when they got out because they saw a fin. The dad told them to get back out there because he was sore it was a dolphin. He had the app and looked just for fun and sure enough Poe Girl the 17 ft shark had pinged in the bay. Everyone got out of the water. A couple weeks later a bit north a guy was killed by a shark. And the same one was in that area 2) cool little animations of where each tagged shark has traveled and each point it registers has its time of year 3) seeing the animation was pretty cool

8 sharks in the Northern Pacific?
Could you also include the record number of sharks tagged in 2020 off the California coast specifically Santa Barbara and San Diego? That would make the price of the app worthwhile and make the app extremely useful.
★★★★★
Fun but glitches
My son and I loved this app. We found favorite sharks and would love tracking where they were. The newest update has caused the images and videos to cease to be viewable which we are so sad about. If the kinks could work out it’s really an interesting app.

Disappointed
I got this so for my son who loves sharks! We wanted to see that they travel the world but the only sharks that are on this app are on the coast of California....

App doesn’t work- serves down?
I’ve had this app for a couple days & haven’t been able to access any information. I get an error message- “No connection. Unable to refresh the sharks from the sever”.

No Atlantic info
There is nothing reported on the Atlantic side. Definitely not worth spending money on.

No east coast coverage
Bought this to track sharks in my area near Massachusetts but there is no coverage on the east coast

Awful
Do not download. The images of shark fins are from 2016. This is definitely not in real time. It also looks like it is only showing sharks on the west coast in 2016. I bought this app to track sharks while I was on vacation. Waste of money, I wish they would refund me.
★★★★★
Amazing animals
I find it so interesting to see where the sharks have been in a given time period by selecting the tracking option. You can enter the time period you would like to see for a selected animal. It’s amazing the distances these sharks can cover. Thank you for sharing this data with the general population by creating the app.

Awesome but needs WORK!
Ok I love sharks and I think it’s amazing that you can track them. The Good- I love that the profiles and info about that sharks are detailed. The video feature is awesome it’s let’s you see these beautiful creatures and really get a sense of there size etc. The Bad- My notifications are on and everyday I get about a dozen ping notifications. Only problem Is when you click on the motivation it DOESN’T take you to the shark that actually pinged. So there I am looking at a screen with 12 shark fins on it and I’m like ok guess it’s time to play the memory game. Also I live on the east coas

Where are the sharks ??
Only one shark is shown on the east coast of the USA and its not even a great white On your description it should say that only the west coast has any relevant data to make this paid for app worth anything

Great for West Coasters
I live in Los Angeles so it’s a lot of fun to keep up with my local sharks. I just purchased it and receive lots of daily pings, which is teaching me a lot about local shark migration patterns. So much fun and inspires me to learn more about science and sharks....appreciate an app that expands my mind and connects me with the ocean.

Appears to be tracking only a handful of sharks, mostly off the coast of Southern California. Not much to see. With so little content, this should be a free app, if even that.

Expedition white shark
There is NOTHING on the entire Atlantic side except the migration track of a tiger shark from 2012. Six years ago! Nothing else. The Pacific side shows more sharks, but only minimal information and a migration track for each. This cost $4...a rip-off.

Really good app!
Not a lot of sharks being tracked, but when more sharks are added this app will be amazing!

Eh
Love sharks, but this shows locations from sharks some of them from upwards of 5 years ago. Definitely a pretty shoddy app. Wish I didn’t pay for it and instead just donated to a Shark conservation agency.

I took the bait but this app has no bite.
First I want to say, Its fantastic what this organization and its people are doing. I wanted to support the app creator and wanted to learn about their lives because it looked like it could potentially could be exciting. However this app is not swimming in that direction. It is basically all static images with no animation, no video, no interviews, no pictures of the sharks being actually tagged by the marine biologist? This is not a 4 dollar app but 99 cents for what it currently is. Overall its map with shark fins on it that show you info about the shark and its location and some other st

Great app.
Great app to see where the shirts are hanging out. It’s very interesting, and you can see what is going on during the different persevere with the sharks. They need to tag more sharks.

Need to call it project mako shark
I installed the app to watch movement of great white sharks, not makos

Not worth it
I didn't have to buy it since I downloaded it during shark week. I would've never pay for it since nothing is updated true to date and time.
★★★★★
Love up until now
I enjoy checking out the shark locations daily but they don't seem to move much and then suddenly they are somewhere different or disappear. Today a great white kimmel I noticed was swimming on land in Mexico but earlier today was in the Pacific Ocean. Hmmmm. great app idea tho just wish it worked better

Total scam, nothing is updated and I was stoked to learn their live locations . I want my $4 back, this is lame. Don't waist your money.

Not updated regularly. Stagnant. Info is years old. Not worth $3.99.- more like .99cents, if that. Could probably find most of this info on google.
