In this version an number of bugs have been fixed: - several crash situations have been solved - the user interface for iPhone has been modified in order to work properly - the weather information was not visible on iPhone which has been fixed - the sync to cloud functionality has been improved but is still in beta state

A short time after our last release we have a new update ready for the App. - As a new option the true wind can be logged as a Beaufort value if True Wind is deactivated in the optional fields. - In setup you can decide to calculate the distance sailed from your GPS positions. In this case the entry of mileage from your log device is no longer necessary - When starting the App after an update, the update procedure is shown to not leave the user clueless about the process. - There was a major bug in the crew maintenance, sorry for that! The bug lead to falsification of contact data and to crashing of the app. - Furthermore several minor bugs have been corrected.

Skippertools has been partially redesigned for this current version. Upon experiencing various hiccups regarding user friendliness and intuitivity, the UI of the Logbook has been optimized in this regard. Furthermore the iPhone Version includes now the full functionality including Maintenance and Cashbook. Upon installing the new Version there will be a conversion of data which can take a little while. Logbook - Logbook Entries of the chosen day are shown in the main Screen - Date handling has been corrected for everything West of GMT - Day can be changed by using Arrowbuttons to left and right - Current Status is shown as Button, tap this button to create a new entry - Day/Night switch has been eliminated for simplicity - Error for Commands in Event Entries has been eliminated - Sail related features have been eliminated for Motor Vessels throughout the App - Port and Starbord Engines have been switched, Port is now on the left - If device has a builtin Barometer, Pressure of Device will be used Day - Timezone can be chosen for a given day, this is relevant for Ocean crossings - Fuel consumption calculation had a major bug which has been eliminated - The Engine Log can be displayed, it shows engine hours and fuel situation Crew - Inside the Crew List there are a number of fields (e.g. Passport) which have previously been stored inside the Notes field in the contact. Since Apple restricts the access to the Notes since iOS 13, this is no longer possible. The fields are now kept inside Skippertools. Unfortunately the previous data cannot be converted. Settings - Optional fields have been extended by True Wind and Watch - A Polar Diagram can be established for Sailing Vessels - Harbors have been redesigned and can be shown in a map - A new table for Timezones has been introduced

Miscellaneous Bugs have been corrected. The ship information has been extended by an optional generator. Generator hours can be tracked by using the respective switch in the logbook entry. Harbours and anchorages are stored in a new entity. Existing information will be searched upon departure and arrival and will be automatically entered in the logbook. Harbour information such as address, phone numbers and email address can be entered and will be visible in your address book. The logbook shows a map of the trip in the PDF file. The iPad version provides the map in a view that is accessible from the journal. The daily information has been extended by a textfield for notes. Daily checks such as engine hours, water, batteries can be performed. It is now possible to create missing logbook entries for past days.
