Sharktivity Reviews

We go to Cape Cod every summer (we’ve been doing so for the past 11 years, do check out Wellfleet!), and sharks are always a concern, especially for my aunt. Sharktivity is great for staying on top of all the this app (hehe) happening in the area, and even helps us time when we go to the beach so that we can actually swim when we get there! (You can’t go in the water 1 hour after being pulled out of the ocean due to a shark) Highly recommend!!!!

Good app especially for cape cod! I find sharks very interesting animals of the sea and I love shark week. This is from the Atlantic White Shark Conservation and shark week had a few episodes where researchers were there in cape cod and some of the guys (Greg Skomal) were wearing some stuff that had the AWSC on it. I thought that it was really cool.

Sharks are extremely important to the oceans ecosystem and planet they help keep our oceans clean, people fear sharks to think they’re man eaters but they’re not. Fear has clouded our judgment and we need to evolve, we need to have a better job of respecting sharks and other wildlife and understanding them and maybe in time we no longer have to fear them and love them like family, and family means no one gets left behind💙🦈🙂

If I had rated this last summer (2019), I would have selected 4-5 stars. This summer has minimal information. Last summer at least had some type of info besides the word sighting. Since the locations on the map don’t indicate exactly where, that should be included as well as how deep the water was and any other pertinent information.

What is the frequency of the updates? Seems the most value would be real-times, but this seems to be updated every other day. Would also be great to get an alert when there are updates. Otherwise I like Sharktivity a lot.

Just noticed your app seems broken, no results are shown. Sharktivity opens ok, but after that, nothing! I downloaded the whale app and the same thing happened, nothing. All your apps need to be updated! Running iOS 14.4 on my iPad.

Great concept, super interesting, but the videos and pictures of shark sightings are 50/50 whether or not they’ll show up. Sharktivity is also very limited beyond just looking at a plain map and seeing where things took place. Not much substance beyond that

Sharktivity is easy to use. My only wish is that Sharktivity was not blue in color blends in with the sea of all my other apps that are mostly blue. Bright orange would be great.

For everyone mad that there were no sharks showing up on Sharktivity , check it out today! Great app! I love looking at it each day. The AWS Conservatory is doing wonderful work. Keep it up!

Would be helpful to include specific location of sighting. Example beach or town to better help those swimming in those areas. Some of your sighting info’s do but many don’t. Just a suggestion.

Seems like Sharktivity is good at tracking sharks and sightings by there aren't that many tracked sharks overall. Interesting tool and will become better the more sharks are tagges with trackers.

I have had Sharktivity for a week and tried many times to look at sharks. I can see the list of names, but it says there is no data for any of them, even going back a year! I don’t know if this is a bug or is Sharktivity just doesn’t work.

I live in Scituate I’ve seen sharks out in front of my house and in Duxberry there was several sharks munching on a whale and another shark sighting off the south coast of situate no reports on Sharktivity and I I have reported to Sharktivity several times and never was a posting
Don’t look at Sharktivity and get into the water without feeling like you’re going to be eaten

Sharktivity hasn’t worked in the last year. I keep seeing the same listings. So dissatisfied. Please update or fix. It used to be so much fun to use. I reported a sighting with photos close to the beach in Edgartown last summer and never saw it on Sharktivity . The only sightings I see are from cool beans last August.

An excellent tool to be aware of recent sightings for beach goers or if you just have a interest in these magnificent animals.

Love the idea, but the updates looks old.

Is Sharktivity dead?

Sharktivity was such a great find. Easy to use and very handy for Cape Codders and visitors. Fascinating to keep track of them.

It would be really helpful if the shark icons showed an indication if that report has a photo or not! Great app thanks!

I’ve never had a single shark appear ANYWHERE on the map. It’s always blank. Menu options always say “No current shark alerts” “No sightings within the last year” and “No streams in last year”.

Can see where the sightings are but details won't load since update

Love the idea, but the updates looks old.

Is Sharktivity dead?

Don’t get me wrong or anything this app is a good app. But I can’t believe that it won’t even tell you the location of the shark sightings!

Sharktivity is so trash, has not been updated since 2018. How can you promote something at almost ever beach in the Cape that is not updated or monitored. Save your time don't bother with this garbage.

Just read about Sharktivity and thought it was super cool but once I started using it - it doesn’t look like there’s been any sightings or updates since sep 18??
