| Release info | Update on Oct 30, 2026 |
|---|---|
| Release notes | What's New in 1.8 New: iCloud sync - Use Sailing Companion on several devices: trips, logbook, photos, voice notes, waypoints, checklists and expenses sync through your private iCloud. Turn it on in Settings -> iCloud. - Your data stays in your own iCloud. Only you have access -- we can't see it. - Log together on board: one device records the track, the others can add logbook entries and photos to the running trip. If the recording phone's battery runs out, the trip can be ended from another device. More new features - Map view in the Trips tab: every trip as a card with a map of the whole route -- running trips grow live. Gallery and list now share the same clear info bar with distance, duration and logbook entries. - Add logbook entries afterwards: for a finished trip, a time slider with a map moves along your route and fills in time, position, speed and course. Or touch and hold the route on the trip map to add an entry right there. - Colored cockpit values: touch and hold a cockpit tile to choose a color for its value -- on iPhone and Apple Watch. Red values on the dark cockpit help preserve night vision. - Vibration on arrival: your iPhone vibrates when you reach a waypoint or your destination. - 3D Flyover: new "Ocean" zoom for long passages, clearer options and a calmer boat motion. Improved - Tidier expense splitter: only trips with shared costs are listed; add one with a single tap. - Ready for foldable iPhones and resizable iPad windows, with landscape on large screens. - Anchor Watch: the anchor and swing circle sit in the free area above the controls, with the same map buttons as the Navigation tab. - Many smaller refinements throughout. |
