Are you reporting an animal in distress?
The report carries your exact position and time. Calling comes next, once it is away.
Whoever responds needs to know if anyone still has eyes on it.
Reading your position...
Welcome aboard. Choose a password to finish setting up your account — you'll use it to sign in from now on.
Android will ask you to allow installs from your browser. That prompt is normal for an app outside the Play Store.
Surfacing chime. Sounds just before a timed whale is likely to come up.
Dock reminder. Asks if you are still out when a trip is still running at the harbor.
Press and hold either alert to answer it without unlocking the phone.
Your location is recorded only between Start Trip and End Trip. Nothing runs at any other time. End the trip before you leave the boat. If you forget, it keeps recording, including your drive home. Guests see your boat's position on a delay, rounded to about a kilometre; they never see exactly where you are. If you share boats with another operator, they see your boat's live position, what you are watching, and your sightings and messages while you are broadcasting. If your operator joins its region room, the operators in that room see your sightings and messages, never your boat's position.

Android is about to ask for your location. Choose Allow all the time so the track keeps recording with the phone in your pocket and the screen off.
If you pick While using the app, recording stops the moment the phone locks. On some phones the all-the-time option is on a second screen: tap Allow in settings and choose it there.
Photograph the fluke, or the back of your camera showing it. The best frame is the fluke fully up and clear of the water.
Ask about facts, previous sightings, or whale IDs.

Creates the operator row, invites the captain by email (Supabase sends a magic-link to set their password), and links the two. After this you'll land on the Edit screen to fine-tune their config.
