Quick start
- Add the app to your home screen. It then opens like a normal app and works without internet, which is handy at sea. Changes you make offline are synced when you're back online.
- Android (Chrome): tap ⋮ (top right), then Install app. If it isn't there, look for Add to home screen or Cast, save and share.
- iPhone (Safari): tap the Share button (the square with an arrow, in the bottom bar), scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen, then Add. If it's missing, tap Edit Actions… and add it.
- iPhone (Chrome): tap the Share icon in the address bar, then Add to Home Screen.
- Computer: in Chrome, click the install icon at the right end of the address bar. On a Mac in Safari, choose File → Add to Dock.
- Mark your days in the calendar. Pick a brush, Sea, Home, Travel or Course, and tap the days. To mark a whole trip at once, use Fill a range.
- Your first month. Your starting balance comes from the payslip you uploaded. Filling in the calendar for this month is optional.
- Upload your payslip every month. When you get your payslip, tap Upload payslip. The app reads it, compares it with your calendar and shows if anything doesn't match. The photo is never stored.
- If something doesn't match. ● Red means your leave days or vacation balance are off. ● Yellow means a day count is different. Tap 📝 Report for the office to get a ready-made message you can email them.
- Readings. You have 6 starter readings, then 3 every 30 days. The reading count sits under the upload button.

Starting balances & rates
In the first month the vacation balance is used as it is: no Holiday Act days are added and no vacation used is subtracted, because that payslip's balance already includes them.
Each month counts the days from the 21st of the previous month to the 20th of that month. Use a comma or a dot for decimals.
Advanced features
Optional extras. Turn on only what you need; the app stays simple without them.
How to use: select Sea or Course in the calendar and type the ship or course name in the box that appears under the buttons. Days you mark get that name. Each month then lists its Trips, and names show in Google Calendar if that's turned on.
How to use: create your private link and add it in Google Calendar (steps below). Sea and travel days show as one block per trip, courses as their own blocks. Changes you make here reach Google on their own, but Google can take several hours to refresh. It also works with Apple Calendar and Outlook.
Add it to Google Calendar (on a computer): open calendar.google.com → next to Other calendars click + → From URL → paste the link → Add calendar. It then shows on your phone too.
Keep the link private: anyone with it can see your trips. If it gets out, make a new one.
Your calendar link still works while this is off. To stop it, turn Google Calendar on again and tap Turn off the calendar link.
Feedback & report a problem
