Before, during & after

One set of tools for your whole session

01 · Before you go

Weather

Wind, gusts, waves and a 6-hour outlook in knots for where you're standing. Your location goes from your browser straight to the forecast service and never reaches our server.

Dashboard

Four big numbers you can read in the glare, each with its own colour. It's the same Dashboard on two devices.

  • Speed Knots
  • Max Session peak
  • Course Over ground
  • Time Elapsed

On Apple Watch

  • Two tiles: Sail (sailing, windsurf, wing, kite) and Paddle (SUP, kayak). One tap starts a session.
  • Waterproof, and Water Lock turns on by itself, so splashes can't trigger taps.
  • No iPhone needed on the water.
  • Apple Watch Series 9 or later.

Your sessions in Apple Fitness

Every Watch session is saved to Apple Health and Fitness with its GPS route. Sail sessions are saved as Sailing workouts and Paddle sessions as Paddle Sports, and both count toward your Activity rings. It's all stored with Apple on your devices, and we never see it.

New in 1.2: the iPhone app shows every session, with your route on a map coloured by speed.

Why I built it

A gift to paddlers and sailors alike.

I built Veni, Navi, Vici because I needed these tools myself. They're 100% free, with no ads and no accounts, and your location and sessions never reach us. No strings attached.

FAQ

Questions? We've got answers.

Watch or phone: which should I use? +

It's the same Dashboard either way: live speed in knots, max speed, course over ground and elapsed time. Both need Location access. Pick whichever suits what you have with you:

Apple Watch

The best choice on the water. It's waterproof, Water Lock turns on by itself so splashes can't trigger taps, and you don't need your iPhone with you. Every session is saved to Apple Health and Fitness with its GPS route. Needs Apple Watch Series 9 or later.

Phone browser

Nothing to install, and it works on iPhone and Android. It adds a live speed chart of your last hour on the water. You'll need a waterproof case, and the screen has to stay on with the tab in the foreground. It only remembers your most recent session, which is stored privately in your browser and never sent anywhere, so there's no full workout history.

How do I add the Web dashboard to my phone's home screen? +

Once added, it opens full-screen from your home screen with no address bar, just like a native app.

  2. Tap the Share icon (the square with an arrow pointing up) in the toolbar.
  3. Scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen.
  4. Tap Add in the top-right corner.

On Android (Chrome)

  1. Open the Web dashboard in Chrome.
  2. Tap the three-dot menu in the top-right corner.
  3. Tap Add to Home screen (or Install app, if Chrome offers it directly).
