Harmony now uses the Royal App and the chat feature works well.  There is no charge to use the chat feature within the app.

We really want to use iMessage if possible 

we tried the chat last trip and hated it 

but if we can’t iMessage we will have no choice 

We leave on harmony of the seas Sunday 

our last cruise was 2017 on anthem 

we found texting via iMessage easiest way to communicate with our group in multiple state rooms 

I have seen posts about royal disabling the ability to use iMessage using the the free WiFi you can use the app in 

we tried the chat feature on the app last trip and it was horrible things came through late and some messages never came through 

just trying to figure out if we can get away not buying WiFi package if possible 

We'll also be on Anthem 4/29 and the Bon Jovi the Tribute called *Wanted* is on that sailing. We've seen them quite a few times now and they are so very good :D

Seadog67, on the 5/6 Anthem sailing, another Journey Tribute band called *DSB*, who I like a little bit better than Resurrection, will be on that sailing, loving your review :)

Linda any clue who is on the April 9th sailing??

We had cabin #6210 bed near balcony and our daughters family had #6208 bed near bathroom. We loved the location. No noise. This was on the Quantum in Feb. We are booked in the same area on the Anthem for 2016.

We have these rooms booked

any photos of the balcony obstructed view for us to see?
