Earlier this year, Disney completely changed their Disney Cruise Line Navigator app in an update. It completely redid the look,
I like the old version better, it actually looks like a Disney app.
While the new version is great, it doesn't look much like a Disney app. It feels more like a generic countdown app. The new version updated the onboard deck plans, improved chat, and enhanced overall performance. I haven't been able to try it on a cruise, but I hope the chat is better. It wasn't very reliable, because you were supposed to keep the app running to receive messages. Even with the app open, sometimes messages took a long time to send. Occasionally, they didn't even send! Let's hope they fixed that issue.
Some more screenshots from the app:
Even with this issue, the app is still really helpful to have. I used it to check character appearances, look at the dinner menu (at breakfast), to check daily activities, and other things. It's basically a Personal Navigator on your phone. It's nice not to have to carry a big flier around with you wherever you go. They definitely didn't have this in 1998.

The old app's countdown was definitely more fun than the new one. It's always good to have something to countdown to!!
