Ham Logging is a comprehensive QSO logging app for amateur radio operators. It serves as a master log that syncs with the most popular ham radio platforms — LoTW, eQSL, ClubLog, QRZ.com Logbook, HRDLog.net, CloudLog, Wavelog, N1MM Logger+, and more — so you keep one log instead of juggling many. KEY FEATURES • Full ADIF 3.1.4 import and export with spec-correct UTF-8 length prefixes • CSV and JSON round-trip backup across every stored field • QRZ.com lookup with auto-search, profile photo, and local cache • 21 logging-service integrations: 10 with live API, 11 export-ready • Incremental sync — never re-uploads what you have already sent • Bidirectional LoTW / eQSL / ClubLog / QRZ / CloudLog / Wavelog • N1MM Logger+ UDP bridge on your local network • Rover Mode: large-target, voice-dictated callsign entry for mobile operating • POTA, SOTA, WWFF, contest, and propagation-mode fields with dedicated UI • Per-QSO QSL card export — themed, code-rendered PNG • Monthly and yearly statistics with shareable bar-chart images PROPAGATION AND MAP • World map with great-circle bearing lines to every worked station • Gray-line terminator overlay with aurora layer (NOAA OVATION) • 24-hour MUF prediction with band openings • PSK Reporter + WSPR path prediction heatmap • Live solar terrestrial data and band-by-band DX potential • Unified Spots tab — DX cluster, POTA, and contests in one place PRIVACY-FIRST • No accounts, no ads, no analytics, no third-party tracking SDKs • All QSO data stays on your device — sync only happens when you tap Sync • Microphone permission is used only by Rover Mode voice dictation; audio is processed by the operating system speech engine and never recorded or transmitted • Local-network permission is requested only if you configure the N1MM bridge DARK MODE + ACCESSIBILITY • Theme-aware throughout — every dialog, panel, and chart respects dark mode • Font-scale slider for global text sizing • Tips & Tricks — 100 rotating contextual hints, toggleable from Settings Built solo by Yousuf AL Balushi (A46UNX) — Unixeer. Designed for the amateur radio community to simplify QSO logging and synchronization across multiple services. ## Version history (last 4 releases) ### 1.1.1 — 2026-07-08 Ham Logging v 1.1.1 +5 - What’s New in This Version: Tropo reliability + a Rover heads-up touch. • Tropo (VHF/UHF ducting) map now heals a partial forecast on its own. If part of the area doesn't come down on the first try — say a few map tiles drop on a shaky connection — the app quietly fetches the missing piece once more in the background and fills it in, so those areas no longer linger looking like clear, duct-free air. Quiet conditions (genuinely no ducting) still show as clear, as before. No prompts, nothing to tap. • While you're viewing the Tropo tab, the forecast now refreshes itself in the background once your data ages out, so you pick up a newer model run without leaving and re-opening the tab. It only fetches when something has actually changed — no needless redraws, and it stays quiet when you're offline or already current. • Smoother time-scrubbing on the Tropo map and a lighter network footprint per refresh. • Rover mode: the "worked before" heads-up now leads with the station's country. When you type or dictate a callsign you've worked, its country flag and name appear at the top of the snackbar — read straight from the callsign prefix, with no lookup and no network — and the same flag now marks the callsign in the tap-to-open QSO history list. 73 de A41UX ### 1.1.0 — 2026-06-24 Rover heads-up, past-QSO history & confirmation status. ROVER MODE • Enter — or dictate — a callsign you've worked before and a quick note shows the date you last worked that station and the band, plus how many times and on which bands across your whole log (e.g. "A41UK last worked 24/06/2026 on 2m. Worked 6 times on 2m and 10m."). Pulled straight from your saved contacts — no lookup, no network needed. • A new history button appears at the edge of the callsign field for worked-before stations. Tap it for a scrollable list of every past QSO with that station — date, time, frequency and band on each line. SYNC — CONFIRMATIONS • LoTW, eQSL and QRZ.com now show how many of your QSOs each service has confirmed (green) versus still pending (orange), with a one-tap Refresh. QRZ reads straight from your logbook — no paid subscription needed. It only updates the confirmed marker; it never adds or edits your logged QSOs. • New QRZ "Request Confirmation" button asks for confirmation of your still-unconfirmed QRZ contacts right from the app — the same as ticking them on the QRZ website. • ADIF import and export now carry QRZ confirmation status, so confirmations follow your log between apps. • Added Mustafa AL Shueili (A41UK) to our Oman testing team credits — with thanks for the reviews and testing. 73 de A41UX ### 1.0.1 — 2026-06-23 Ham Logging Version 1.0.1 +3 in now live in Stores Sync & reliability • QRZ.com Logbook downloads are now resumable — a large logbook comes down in batches and saves as it goes, so an interrupted download continues right where it left off. • New “Stop & Save” control during a long QRZ download — stop any time and keep everything pulled so far. • Names & grids now fill in automatically in the background after a download. New “Force Re-enrich All” and “Deep Enrich (full)” options in the QSO Logs menu (Deep Enrich adds 6-char grid, county, QSL info, and license class). • Smoother saving of large logbooks — the app stays responsive while it writes. • Callsign lookup is steadier on an unstable connection — a dropped link no longer loses the basic info already retrieved. Propagation & space weather • New “Live (NOAA SWPC)” strip: real-time Kp index + GOES X-ray flare class alongside the 3-hour HamQSL values, colour-coded for fast-moving solar events. • Solar tab: SFI and the K/A magnetic index now read as at-a-glance dial gauges, with the whole tab fitting one screen. • Conditions tab: new “Band Activity by Continent” heatmap — live DX-cluster spot counts per band across EU / NA / SA / AS / AF / OC. • Tropo forecast: steadier background loading at launch — shows the last saved forecast instead of claiming a new one when offline — and Refresh now reports whether it pulled a newer GFS run or you are already up to date. Spots • New “RBN” sub-mode: shows where YOUR callsign has been picked up (Reverse Beacon Network + DX-cluster), last 72 hours, each row tagged with source and how long ago. • New “SOTA” sub-mode: live Summits on the Air activator spots, filter by band/mode or search by summit, callsign, or reference. Logging & map • Manual QSO entry: Date/Time UTC are now tap-to-open pickers that stay put across “Save & Next QSO” for batch back-dated entry; tap the clock icon to snap back to now. • Manual QSO entry: picking a satellite auto-fills TX/RX band + frequency + mode from a built-in catalog of 100+ amateur satellites. • Map: turning off “Show Worked Grids on Map” now hides the worked-grid markers too; grid circles are a touch smaller for a cleaner map. • Map: the info panel now shows a live location row — your saved QTH grid, your current grid (“You are here”), and the distance between them, all updating every second as you move. It tucks away when you tap a worked grid or set a destination. • Grid locators now display in standard Maidenhead case (e.g. LL93jq) — the subsquare letters are no longer shown in all-caps — on the map and in spot details. • APRS map: fixed a crash on a second packet from a station first heard without an internet gateway; toggling APRS off then on reloads stations straight away. Settings • “Reset All App Settings” now keeps your service logins and your QSO log — it only restores preferences. “Delete All Account Data” removes just saved logins and API keys. • Theme, font size, and each service’s on/off switch apply instantly but save only when you tap Save All. 73 de A41UX ### 1.0.0 — 2026-05-26 No release notes. ## More apps by Yousif AL Balushi - [Ham Satting](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/ham-satting/id6755707916) - [Ham Learning](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/ham-learning/id6782169770) - [Ham Gaming](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/ham-gaming/id6782177779) All apps by Yousif AL Balushi: https://appshunter.io/developer/1855752610 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
