Nautical Info Service Croatia
For sailors on Adriatic sea. Emergency call, weather forecast, violation report.
Nautical Information Service (nIS) is a free multilingual application for smartphones, intended for owners of yachts and boats, fishermen, divers, swimmers and other people who spend time on the coast and at sea. nIS was developed so that users could provide substantial and detailed information to the local harbormaster’s offices and other services for navigation safety, prevention of marine pollution, and especially to search and rescue services, in a quick and simple way. nIS can also provide users all the necessary information important for their safety, at any time and at every place.nIS enables users to dial a phone number used for distress, urgency or safety calls - 195 (MRCC Rijeka), while automatically reporting location of the caller via a short text message (SMS), which essentially reduces the time needed to find users in danger.Contents of the nIS application:• phone call to the toll-free number of the search and rescue service – 195, with information on current location• maritime violation report (with an option to attach photos and/or videos)• weather forecast for mariners (air temperature, wind speed and direction, air pressure, waves, cloud cover)• navigation rules (vessel equipment, order in ports and at sea, avoiding collision at sea, marine environment protection, information for foreign vessels, divers and swimmers, radio service and radio notices, maritime marks)• public services contacts (search and rescue, harbormasters offices, hyperbaric chamber, commercial salvage, consulates, medical institutions, emergency services, VTS service, coastal radio stations)• ports and anchorages (marines, nautical anchorages, petrol stations, border crossings)Small UI tweaks and stability fixes.

No registration pin!!! Why!!! I've put my number 50 times now and even reinstalled the app few times, no pin arrives and app is blocked. Useless, please fix it
this used to be a great resource. Now it is impossible to load up and register. It keeps saying it will send a pin to enter to register but this never happens. what a shame and a waste of everyone's time and money.
Popisi svih marina i sidrista sa kontaktima i cijenama, dovoljno za 5/5
Dobar program. Obavezno ga koristim kad plovim. Jedina zamjerka je sto ne osvjezava prognozu cesce, a narocito valove koji su na moru jednako vazni kao i vjetar.
does not work. does not recognize the pin. an invalid pin cannot be registered
The weather forecast does not work. It's constantly downloading. How is one suppose to use it for navigation without the weather forecast?!? Shame for an otherwise well thought out app. Update after one month: After several updates the weather forecast is still not working...
Anchorage charts are not reliable. South Adiratic region is missing a lot of places, for example, infront of Dubrovnik, areas around Pakleni islands in front of Borovac island. Great idea for and app but still needs a lot of work.
Can not register. App shows "New user registration failed! Please check yoiur network settings!". I even tried to clear cache and app data, tried connecting via 4G or Wifi, nothing helped. UPDATE: Now the app asks to re-register, sends a PIN via SMS, but validation always fails with "PIN validation failed" error :( UPDATE: after update and clearing app data (Settings/Apps/nIS/Storage/Clear data) the app works fine again.
Fala, radi sad napokon!
Cant even open the app. Was loading for 10min. and the I gave up.
