WatcheePro is a comprehensive app for watch collectors and enthusiasts that tracks watch collection information. STORE WATCH DETAILS Set watch details including category, origin (country flags), status, dimensions, serial and reference numbers, materials, movement, complications (up to six), pricing, and much more. CUSTOMIZABLE WATCH PLATES Change colors of plate, crown, info frame, and font independently to match watch design characteristics. Animated crown, pusher, and gears show watch info. TRACK WATCH STATISTICS Track watch collection statistics such as wear rates, accuracy measurements, service history, and compare individual watch specs to your watch collection averages. View a summary of your entire collection. WEAR HISTORY Wear history can be examined per watch or for the whole collection. You can filter the wears by day of the week to easily check which watches you tend to wear on sundays as an example. ACCURACY MEASUREMENT Store multiple accuracy measurements for each watch. Check interim result for a measurement while test is active. Storing the results of each test allows you to compare whether a watch is more accurate on your wrist than in a box or on a winder, for example. If you enable the "Highlight special watches" flip in the settings, then the top-3 most accurate watches will automatically get a special plate design to highlight it. It can be quite fun to see which watches make it to the top-3 and when a watch gets removed from it. TIMEGRAPHER ACCURACY MEASUREMENTS Store results of timegrapher measurements including rate, beat error and amplitude in six positions. WatcheePro automatically calculates averages and deltas based on rate, beat error, and amplitude. Fully-wound and 24-hours running can be compared. WEAR RATES Track which watches you wear most often, how many days since last wear, and cost per wear. Watch statistics are just a tap away. Wear rates can be examined for the whole watch collection and we've also added the per watch effective wear rate, which automatically calculates a percentage for each watch regarding how many times it has been worn compared to the days it has been owned. Wear rates are also available for brands and manufacturing countries, so you can find out how much you wear your watches belonging to a certain brand or watches made in a certain country vs. all other watches. If you enable the "Highlight special watches" flip in the settings, then the most/least worn watches will automatically get a special plate design to highlight it. USEFUL AND ENTERTAINING Export your collection to a spreadsheet. Create PDFs of your watches for insurance or selling purposes. Earn badges for entering watch info and for wear counts. Can't decide what to wear, let WatcheePro pick! HISTORY LOG If enabled in the settings, log actions regarding watches such as when a watch is added to the collection or sold. KEEPER RATE AND SELLER RATE WatcheePro tracks Keeper & Seller rates for your watches by comparing a specific watch against the other watches in your collection. WatcheePro compares the characteristics of your watch against the averages across your collection. WATCH COLLECTION SUMMARY DETAILS Number of watches in collection, number of sold watches, total cost of watches in collection, total retail cost of watches in collection, total cost of sold watches, profit from sold watches, results of watch deals, average diameter, average thickness, average lug-to-lug, and total weight. APP DEVELOPMENT WatcheePro stores all data on your device and does not need an internet connection. The app is developed by two watch enthusiasts and programmers. WatcheePro is regularly updated with new features and we welcome feedback. DEVELOPERS WatcheePro is developed by Anssi Hakkarainen and Brian Hall. Anssi is a database developer, lifetime programmer, and watch enthusiast. Brian is a computer science professor, engineer, and watchmaker.

Home Tide shows the day's tides on the home screen - and now lock screen - in a way that makes them easy to understand at a glance. The lock screen widget shows the day's tides as a graph, with a karaoke ball highlighting the current part of the cycle, so you can see how high the tide is, when high and low tide are, and whether the tide is going in or out with a quick glance. The home screen widget shows the same graph and karaoke ball, but with the background coloured according to the daylight, so you can see at a glance which stages of the tide fall in daylight hours, which are at night, and which are in twilight. Tapping on either widget opens the app, where you can see the same graph, karaoke ball and daylight hours as the home screen widget, but with heights added to the graphs. Choose any day in the next week and drag a finger along the graph to see the height change through the day. Use the map to choose from thousands of tide stations around the world. - See the current state of the tide at a glance, without opening an app or even unlocking your phone - Choose from thousands of tide locations worldwide (see here for the list: https://www.worldtides.info/tidestations) - Check the tide height for any time in the next week - Support for tide heights in feet or metres - See which parts of the tide fall in daylight, twilight and nighttime - No sign-up - No ads - No tracking - No in-app purchases - No prompts to review - No notifications - No nonsense
