Getting started

Do I need a QRZ.com account?

No. QRZ lookups are included for free, so there's no need to sign in with your own QRZ.com account. If you'd rather use your own, you can connect it in the settings.

Can Fieldbook upload my log to QRZ?

Yes, with QRZ Logbook Sync on Fieldbook Pro. Connect your QRZ.com logbook in the settings and every contact you log goes up to it for you, along with the ones you've already got. Got a logbook you'd rather keep off QRZ? Just switch it off. You'll need a QRZ.com subscription that includes the Logbook API too, as QRZ doesn't allow uploads from a free account.

Is there an app on the App Store or Google Play?

No, Fieldbook runs in your browser, so there's nothing to install. You can add it to your home screen though, and it'll feel just like an app.

Can I bring my existing log over?

Yes! Export an ADIF file from your current logger and import it into Fieldbook. The free plan holds up to 10,000 QSOs in total.

Logging and sync

Do I need signal to log?

Nope! As long as you've opened Fieldbook on your device before heading out, you can log, edit and search with no signal at all. Everything syncs up once you're back online.

Can I use Fieldbook on more than one device?

Yes, as many as you like. Log on your phone out in the field, then look back over it on your computer at home. Everything stays in sync.

Is it any good for POTA?

Yes! There's a POTA logbook template, you can spot yourself straight from the log, there are live spots with the nearest activators first, and you can export an ADIF file for each park you've activated.

What if I lose or break my phone?

Anything that's synced is safely backed up, so just sign in on another device and your log will be there. Anything logged since you last had signal will only be on that phone, so it's worth letting it sync when you can.

Your data

Can I take my log elsewhere?

Of course, your log is yours. Export any logbook as ADIF, or download a backup of the lot, whenever you like.

What do you do with my data?

It's used to run Fieldbook, and that's it. Your data is never sold. The privacy policy has all the details.

Plans and billing

Is cloud sync really free?

It really is! Cost should never be a barrier to getting on the air, so offline logging, cloud sync and QRZ lookups are free for everyone.

Can I try Pro first?

Yes! Head to Settings, then Subscription, and start a free 14-day trial. No card needed. You get every Pro feature, though the 10,000 QSO limit still applies until you subscribe. When the fortnight's up, you're back on the free plan with all your data where you left it.

How do I upgrade to Pro?

Sign in to Fieldbook and head to Settings, then Subscription. Payments are handled securely by Paddle.

Can I cancel?

Whenever you like. You'll keep Pro until the end of the period you've paid for, then your account moves over to the free plan.

Can I get a refund?

Yes. If Pro isn't for you, email me within 30 days of buying it and you'll get a full refund, no questions asked.

Fancy giving it a go?

Sign up for free and you'll be logging in a couple of minutes.
