About

The Handover App

Features
Read full description

Handover helps yacht crew capture operational updates the moment they happen, then turns them into organised records, follow-ups and handover notes. Instead of leaving important details buried in voice notes, group chats, notebooks or old PDFs, crew can record an update, add context and keep it where the next person can actually find it. Built for the reality of yacht rotations, Handover gives crew one calm workspace for day-to-day operational knowledge. Use Handover to: - Record voice updates while the detail is still fresh - Turn captures into structured notes and follow-up actions - Keep vessel knowledge searchable across departments - Store procedures, suppliers, contacts, credentials and specs in one library - Prepare cleaner handovers for the next rotation - Reduce the back-and-forth that happens when notes live in too many places Handover is designed for working crew. It keeps the capture process quick, the interface calm and the information organised enough to use later. Whether you are handing over to relief crew, tracking open jobs, recording a supplier detail or saving a procedure that should not live in someone's memory, Handover helps keep the vessel's working knowledge in one place. Handover is the voice-first handover app by HelmWise.
