About
Cruise Ship Time and Countdown
Cruise ships keep "ship time", usually the time zone of the departure port, while your phone quietly switches to local time in each port. Get the difference wrong and the gangway closes without you.
ShipTime Companion locks your ship's clock, shows both times together and schedules every alarm on the device, so it works in the middle of the ocean just as well as on the pier.

FAQ
ShipTime Companion questions
What is ship time?
Ship time is the clock a cruise ship runs on, usually the departure port's time zone. It often differs from local time in port, which is why passengers miss the all-aboard deadline.
Do the alarms work without signal?
Yes. Every alarm is scheduled on your device, so it rings with no cellular signal, roaming or ship Wi-Fi.
Is ShipTime Companion free?
The countdown, dual clock and Cruise Mode are free. Premium adds the lock screen widget, unlimited alarms, full customs logging with family pooling, every currency and every packing template.
