Communicating onboard via text?

[berryhillmom]

A couple months ago while reading a review on cruise critic someone mentioned an app that they had on their phone that allowed them to text their children onboard when trying to meet up with each other. I didn't write down the name of the app and of I have forgot! I think you pay like a 2.00 charge for the app and then the texting is free. Anyone have any ideas?

Norwegian has the iConcierge app, cost $7,95 per phone that allows you to text between phones with the app on board without additional charge. As far as I know, the only line to offer this at this time.

 

Any other app that is commercially available would require you to use internet minutes to do anything.

Princess has begun offering a similar app on their ships. They have it on a few and will roll it our to all over the next 12 months. I have not heard mention of a fee for the app on Princess

Disney has a free app for texting, no usage charge.
