Welcome to Ship Finder Lite - the best live AIS tracking app available. The free version gives you access to around 2 million locations worldwide, and the full version, which is compatible with the latest generation of iOs devices, has an additional 2 million locations worldwide, with a massive 20,000 locations updated everyday.

All the major shipping lines are supported, and the app keeps track of every vessel, whether it's a container ship, fishing boat, passenger vessel or even a tanker.

AIS systems are used by both commercial and most passenger vessels to provide real-time data that will be displayed on your smartphone or tablet's screen. The app uses this data to calculate a vessel's position and keep an eye on its route and speed.

All ship data is updated in real-time, and you can quickly tap a vessel's name to get more information about its characteristics and destination. It is also ideal for sailors who want to find out where their friends are or for people who want to see where the other boats are in their area.

You may also download and install the full version of Ship Finder Lite, and you can enjoy:

• A vast geographical range of locations. 
• Near real-time updates of thousands of locations and ships.
• The ability to identify vessels by searching by name, location, destination, type, size or owner.
