Appearance, language and units

A dark theme for water and night, a light one for bright sun, a red filter after sunset and the units you are used to.

Where to set it

Settings: interface, on the water, data

“More → Settings”. Three groups: interface, on the water, data.

Appearance — System, Dark, Light. Switches instantly, with no restart.

Language — Russian or English. The interface changes at once; lessons and rules are still partly Russian only.

Units — knots and metres, km/h and metres, miles and feet. Speed, depths and wave are shown in what you chose.

On the water

Cyrillic transcription — a line under every English phrase in the phrasebook.

Haptics — the tactile reply to taps and switches.

Keep the screen on during a watch — while the anchor watch is open.

Night brightness — a red filter over the interface after sunset, so your eyes keep their dark adaptation.
