What does a classification mean?

Limnora displays official seasonal classifications from the European Environment Agency, based on reporting by national authorities. The app downloads the current EEA dataset (at present the 2025 season, with records from 2015–2025 where available). It is not a live water test, a forecast or a guarantee of safe swimming. Follow local warnings, closures and on-site notices. "Missing data", "Not classified" and "Unknown classification" are distinct from "Poor" quality.

What works offline?

The stored bathing-water records, local site search, nearby calculations and history can be read offline once the dataset has been downloaded (an internet connection is needed on first launch). Map tiles that are not cached, destination search, official profile pages and App Store operations require a connection. Previously verified Pro access follows StoreKit's available entitlement information.

How do I restore Pro?

Open Pro → Restore purchases with the Apple Account used for the original purchase. Pro is a one-time non-consumable purchase for full seasonal history and comparison of 2–4 bathing waters. It is not a subscription. A pending purchase unlocks after App Store approval; a failed or unverified purchase does not unlock Pro.

Do I have to share my location?

No. Pan the map or search for a bathing water or destination. The location button asks for permission only when used. Access can be changed at any time in iOS Settings.

Why is a site missing or its name unusual?

The app uses the published EEA inventory and preserves its site names and identifiers. Zoom in or use the nearby list where map symbols overlap. The downloaded dataset is not a live national warning feed. Use the official profile link where available to consult the reporting authority.

Accessibility

The app follows system text size and appearance settings, labels classifications with text and symbols in addition to colour, and offers a list alternative to map markers.
