Duty shift vs StationHQ

Duty shift is your essential tool for every sea voyage. Sailing is a pleasure, but crew management is a duty. Duty shift takes this burden off the captain's shoulders. Forget about scraps of paper and arguments about who takes the helm next. MAIN FEATURES: SMART SCHEDULE Choose the Fixed System (Swedish) or Fair Rotation. The algorithm ensures every crew member spends equal time on deck and in the galley. AUTOMATIC LOGBOOK The app saves GPS positions at every watch change. After the voyage, you have a ready route history on the map. NOTIFICATIONS & "THAT'S ME" The system automatically sends notifications before a watch change. Mark yourself with the "That's Me" feature to filter notifications just for you and switch the main dashboard timer to count down to your specific watch or rest time. CREW LIST WITH AVATARS Add crew members and personalize their profiles with fun Emoji avatars. FREE VERSION (Fully functional) Use the app for free with no time limits: • Create unlimited voyages. • Manage the full crew list. • Generate schedules and receive notifications. • Save voyage history locally on your phone. PRO VERSION (For professionals) A one-time purchase unlocks professional features: • PDF EXPORT: Generate and print professional Crew Lists and Agendas. • SHARING: Export voyage files and import voyages from other users. • SPECIAL MODES: Bosun Watch and Skipper Mode. NEW — WEATHER & WIDGET: Check the weather forecast (Open-Meteo) with storm warnings and a wind compass right inside the app. Use the Home Screen widget to see who's on watch without opening Wachty. NEW — ANCHOR WATCH (PRO): Drop anchor and let the app watch the drift. A drift radar alerts you when the boat leaves the set radius — even with your phone locked.
