Store description excerpt

iPhone2SignalK turns your iPhone into an instrument source for Signal K and NMEA, with GPX tracks, anchor watch and widgets. COMPASS The compass rose runs whenever compass is enabled, even if you are not sending. Choose heading, pitch, roll and position. Speed over ground (SOG) is sent by default and shown in knots beside the rose. Optionally show or send ERA, COG and wind (including apparent). CONNECTIVITY UDP JSON (Signal K), NMEA over UDP or TCP, optional HTTP PUT. Multiple destinations, typically port 10110. Auth tokens are stored in the Keychain. GPX & MAPS Record tracks with a chosen point interval, add waypoints, review stats (days/ranges, combined map, save as one GPX). Play saved tracks on the map even without Signal K; position slider, pause and resume. View on OpenStreetMap, OpenSeaMap and Apple Maps (standard/satellite/hybrid). Optional Google tiles with your own Map Tiles API key and offline MBTiles (you import them; licensing and rights are yours — the developer does not provide charts). Zoom is remembered; Tracks has zoom 100 m–100 km, Center boat, 2D/3D (tilt is kept) and North/Course. ANCHOR WATCH Drop an anchor mark and nudge it with arrow buttons. Chain length and optional manual water depth. Alarm circle, persistence across restarts, rising sound, flashlight, vibration and notifications. Your track is drawn on the map. Live Activity on Lock Screen / Dynamic Island. REMOTE ANCHOR WATCH (optional) Second device with a different Apple ID: master creates a QR code (iCloud/CloudKit); follower scans or picks a photo. Receiver shows map, distance and alarm also in the background (polling); control only on the master. Allow Live Activities and notifications. Both devices need iCloud. WIDGETS Home Screen widgets for GPX track (recording, time, distance) and anchor watch (status, distance, radius). NOTES The developer does not collect any data (no developer server, no tracking, no analytics). In-app language: System, German or English. Changing language does not stop a running recording. For background sending, GPX and anchor watch, allow Location Always. Compass and GPS need a real iPhone. Data is sent only to servers you configure. Remote watch uses only your app’s Apple iCloud container. HOBBY PROJECT A private hobby project, written for personal use and shared freely. The developer does not collect any data. No warranty and no guarantee of correctness or future updates. Use entirely at your own risk — the app does not replace navigation or a proper watch. Feedback is welcome, with no entitlement to a reply or changes. Free, with no ads and no in-app purchases.
