Comments on AIS Share - RTL SDR AIS for Android

★★★★★ Pete Gale · Feb 21, 2016
Just brilliant. Installed it on a hudl with open cpn for easy cheap AIS.
★★★★☆ Beaumont 6667 · Jun 11, 2020
The developer was extremely helpful in assisting me to overcome some misinterpretation, on my part, during the linking of AIS Share with my navigation app. I am now able to "see" AIs targets and subsequently feel safer on the water. Thanks, Christian.
★★★★★ Brian Wyles · Jun 3, 2017
Excellent app. Does just what it says on the tin. I am using it on a hudl2 in conjunction with boat beacon and an RTLSDR dongle to provide a cheap stand-alone AIs solution.
★★★★★ saiful islam · Mar 10, 2020
Coverage very poor only five miles. I use the copper telescopic antenna.
★★★★★ Andrew Strutt · Jul 3, 2023
Works great, inexpensive, clean interface. Needs service restart feature, but otherwise I am happy with the driver and sharing app. I share AIS with Avionics and other apps.
★☆☆☆☆ Steve Mason · Dec 16, 2017
Does, nt work on my phone. Refund please. Seems I can't send this message without rating, so I need to give it a one star but not worth that even
