automatic log

[OceanSprint]

I singlehand mostly.

I have a lovely Nexus 7 (although now the screen is cracked cos I kept in my back pocket, then sat down. But a local 'vicar' is going to try and replace screen using YouTube - its a long story)

I want an app that logs lat and long every 30 mins, prompts me (with a beep) for a text entry of wind, sea state, comments etc

Does such a thing exist?

This looks like it is exactly what you want

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...e+log&pcampaignid=APPU_XtCIVN2oMYey7QaF8oDoAg

Has "sail mode" for you to enter wind speed, sails etc

The developer even helpfully publishes the in app help here:

£3.90.

Looks good to me. Then again I use OpenCpn as mentioned above so won't be purchasing!!

No beep as far as I can see so you should email and ask for that in the next release.

Also my phone has a barometer in it and he mentions he may add barometric pressure in the future.

Silly - I meant the Google app.

And a bit of thread hijack, which is the best of the iPad versions?

Have a look at Mad Mut Marine on play store, it's written by a Prof at Plymouth university and also he's a sailing man
