Version 1.1 adds a training report for every hoist: flag count, word breaks, phonetic coverage, urgent/caution notes, and a practical drill.
Study semaphore positions, NATO/ICAO phonetics, and Morse references with audio/haptic practice for supported characters.
Source links are included in Quick Reference. The app is for training and reference only; real marine operations should follow current official publications.
No account, no analytics, no tracking, no third-party SDKs, and no network required for core use. Photo-library permission is requested only if you save a generated hoist image.
