Skipper is a boating logbook app designed for iPhone and iPad users. With this app, users can easily keep a record of all their activities at sea. Whether you love sailing or boating, Skipper is a powerful tool that allows you to automatically track and record your boat trips.
The app offers several features including real-time position tracking, trip duration and distance monitoring, and the ability to log various details about your activities such as weather conditions, crew members, boat information, and more. Users can access accurate statistics about their trips, relive their adventures through maps, and search their logbook for specific information.
Skipper also offers support for importing GPX files, allows for secure storage of trips on the device, and supports different units of measurement. Additionally, the app features alternate app icons for customization, a clean and playful design, and even includes dark mode support.
Skipper is developed by an independent developer named Axel from Paris, France. Users are encouraged to reach out to provide feedback, report any issues, or make suggestions. The developer is always happy to hear from users.
Please note that only Wi-Fi + Cellular iPads have a built-in GPS, Wi-Fi only iPads do not. Skipper cannot be used as a replacement for the Automatic Identification System (AIS). Continuous use of GPS in the background may decrease device battery life and it is recommended to connect the device to a power outlet when possible. GPS operates independently of any Wi-Fi or cellular data connection. An internet connection is required to download weather forecasts and maps, which are provided by Apple.
