About

Advisory Notices

Read full description

The centralised platform allows vessels and managers to view and distribute advisory notices, covering multiple Flag States and Classification Societies. Management companies can upload company or fleet-specific notices, and an alert system notifies users when new notices are available. Users can view the notices or access their sources, pin notices for easy future reference, and feed advisory notices into the Maritime Accident Investigation Reports for the Management Report application, which in turn connects to the Ephemeris Safety Committee Meeting application. The application is free to download, but requires a subscription to access its features. Included in the Subscription: Centralised Notice Management: - View and distribute advisory notices across multiple Flag States and Classification Societies. Customised Notice Uploads: - Management companies can upload company or fleet-specific notices. Notification System: - Receive alerts for newly available notices.

About

You open an app for five minutes. Then the scroll takes over. It happens to everyone. Rest gives you a gentle tap on the shoulder when a visit runs long. Take a short walk, then choose again. No guilt, no streaks, nothing to earn. HOW IT WORKS - Make a deal with yourself: pick the apps that pull you in, how long a normal visit is, and how you'll reset. - Get a heads-up a minute before, then one gentle tap when the time is up. - Take a lap: about three minutes, phone in your pocket. The hallway, the stairs, round the block, it all counts. Prefer to stay put? Choose "Phone down" instead: screen off, face down, three minutes. - Then choose again: back for ten more minutes, or done for now. Both are good answers. SEE WHAT YOUR TIME TURNS INTO Every Sunday, Rest shows you a calm weekly summary: - Time you took back from long scrolls - Your steps against your own four weeks before Rest - Sleep on nights you stopped scrolling earlier - Workouts you started soon after putting the phone down - One-thing tasks you finished in the time you got back These are patterns in your own data, never promises. BUILT TO BE KIND - Unlock any time, no questions asked. - A gentler "It's late" tap after your bedtime. - Open apps on purpose with the doorway widget: decide how long before you go in. - Pim, a small friend who naps when your apps rest. PRIVATE BY DESIGN - Uses Apple's Screen Time framework. Rest knows when a watched app is used and for how long, never what you look at. - Your posts, messages, searches and photos are never seen. - No account. Your activity stays on your iPhone. - Health data is read only, used only for your weekly summary, and never leaves your phone. WHAT YOU'LL NEED Screen Time access is required. Motion, notifications and Health are optional: without them, laps are timed instead of counted, and the weekly summary shows laps and time back only. SUBSCRIPTION Rest is free to download and needs a subscription to work. Choose yearly (with a 7-day free trial for eligible new subscribers) or monthly. Payment is charged to your Apple ID when you confirm the purchase. Your subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your App Store account settings. Prices may vary by region.

The call

Advisory Notices and Rest are too close to call on the numbers: across 5 compared parameters โ€” price, ads, in-app purchases and device support among them โ€” neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.
