Duplicate existing missions with a single tap. COMPLETE DOCUMENTATION Record events chronologically with automatic date-time group (DTG). Use categorized quick actions for common entries — from strength and radio reports to GPS/weather data and handovers. Create custom quick actions and share them via QR code. DIGITAL SIGNATURES & HANDOVERS Sign mission closures and diary handovers digitally. Both leaders sign during handover — signatures appear correctly assigned in the PDF export. Optionally transfer the mission directly to the new leader's device. SITUATION REPORTS & MISSION REPORTS Create structured situation reports with auto-fill from mission data and export them as PDF in official form style. Mission reports summarize operations with a milestone timeline and statistics. UNIT REGISTRATION Register deployed units with personnel, vehicles, and strength. Registration forms are automatically saved as PDF attachments to log entries. Templates for recurring units speed up registration — shareable via QR code.

PHOTO DOCUMENTATION Attach photos directly from the camera or gallery to log entries. Compression is adjustable, images appear as attachments in the PDF export.
