Authenticator App provides a secure and convenient way for users to protect their accounts by adding an additional layer of security. The app generates time-based one-time passwords (TOTPs) that are used in conjunction with a user's login credentials to access online accounts, services, and applications. With its simple set up process, support for a wide range of services and applications, and high level of security, Authenticator App is an ideal solution for anyone looking to enhance their security and protect their online identity. Features: -Easy to set up Authenticator App is incredibly easy to add a new account. Users simply need to scan a QR code provided by the service or enter a secret key, which generates a unique six-digit code that changes every 30 seconds. This code is then used as a TOTP to access the account. -Highly secure The app uses time-based one-time passwords (TOTPs) to generate unique, time-sensitive codes that cannot be guessed or reused. Additionally, the app is protected by a PIN code or biometric authentication, such as Touch ID or Face ID, ensuring that only authorized users can access the app and view their codes. With these security features, users can be confident that their accounts are protected from unauthorized access and hacking attempts. -Password storage protection Password storage protection is a secure and convenient way to store and manage your passwords for various online accounts. With advanced security measures, ease of use, and automatic syncing, it allows you to keep your sensitive information private and protected from unauthorized access. -Password generator A random password generator is a tool that creates unique, strong passwords for online accounts. It generates passwords using a combination of letters, numbers, and symbols, making them difficult for hackers to guess or crack. -Supports 1000+ Apps Authenticator App supports a wide range of services and applications, including Google, Facebook, Dropbox, Amazon, and more. -Backup and sync With Auto-Sync on, you can easily back up your 2FA accounts to your iCloud.

Your Yachtmaster application, or your USCG renewal, comes down to a count: days at sea, miles, night hours, qualifying passages — under rules that are easy to get wrong. A wrong total costs months. SeaTally counts your sea time the way the rules count it, and turns it into the documents your application needs. WHERE DO I STAND? Choose your target — RYA Yachtmaster Coastal, Offshore, or USCG renewal — and the home screen answers the one question that matters: what is still missing, in plain words. "2 more passages over 60 miles, 1 of them at night. 320 tidal miles to go." THE TRICKY RULES, BUILT IN – A qualifying day is 8 consecutive hours aboard, the majority at sea, one per 24 hours. Counting "trips" gives a wrong total; SeaTally crosses your time aboard with your passages. – Only the last 10 years count toward RYA requirements. – Sail time counts for sail exams, power for power. – Miles on vessels over 24 m are capped, and the cap is explained. – Night hours: the sunset-to-sunrise window is computed from the sun's position along your track; you declare the hours you actually kept watch. Every rule is shown, never applied silently, and a detected passage can always be unticked. Progress is indicative: the examiner decides. RECORD BY GPS, FULLY OFFLINE Start recording when you cast off. SeaTally keeps logging in the background, screen off, through a full night watch — no signal needed. Distance comes from the track; signal gaps are flagged and their miles marked as estimated, never hidden. DOCUMENTS READY TO COUNTERSIGN – A sea time record PDF in the classic logbook layout: chronological entries, per-page totals and carry-over, a skipper signature box on every line. – USCG form CG-719S (rev. 12/25): one form per vessel and role, the month-by-month grid filled in, and no day ever counted on two vessels at once. Documents export in English, whichever language the app runs in. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account, no server, no tracking. Your logbook and your tracks stay on your device; nothing is shared unless you share it. SeaTally never asks for your SSN — that box prints blank, for you alone to fill in. FREE AND PRO Free: the complete logbook, up to 25 passages. Eligibility, PDF, CSV and backups are never locked — check that every total lands right before paying anything. SeaTally Pro, a one-time purchase with no subscription, removes the limit. Ten years of sea time shouldn't be a rental. Re-importable CSV export, automatic backups, a 30-day trash: your data is never captive.
