HOW TRACKING WORKS
OCEARCH conducts scientific research and collaborates with institutions across the world! SPOT tags are used to provide near real-time tracking data for an average of 5 years. Each time the animal’s tag breaks the surface of the water, it signals a satellite to create a ‘ping’ on the tracker for YOU to see. Data is used by the scientific community to help with:
• Research
• Conservation
• Policy
• Management
• Safety
• Education
We created this app to engage YOU in shark and marine conservation efforts by providing real-time tracking data on ocean animals. Our goal is to empower YOU to connect with the ocean, learn about marine life, and support vital marine science through interactive, accessible technology. Thank you for your interest and support. We couldn't conduct this critical ocean research without you.

I had the old tracker.... I can not even find the words to describe the new app. FINTASTIC! Above Exceptional! Amazing. The update is well done, and I am. Lown away. Hey, GOOGLE, you seriously need to do a top pick for this new tracker!
great for tracking several or single sharks.
Loved the app, was so easy to use, and fun to find out which sharks and other sea life are close to your home. Now it's money based (I've already donated $), harder to navigate, and it looks like most of the sharks have disappeared. Very disappointing.
The new app is too busy. I deleted it because of all the unnecessary clutter. Not sure why devs like to shove so much in and think it's an improvement.
Update now locks you out of features, obnoxiously forcing a bright white popup over a dark screen when you click on features you used to have access to, like simply viewing additional shark photos. Tons of things all over the screen that are unnecessary. Peeved I updated. On the verge of deleting because of this money grab attitude because now I never want to use it. This is not how you get sponsorship. Also mislabeling major body of water to a not real name? What other information is wrong??
