Drag alerts
I keep getting drag alerts when clearly the boat has not moved...
United StatesNot Reliable...but a well planned app
I downloaded this to monitor remotely, it’s one of the only anchor alarm apps that allows real-time tracking via another device. This is a fantastic feature. Unfortunately the app on my iPhone and two other iPhones will freeze. We live aboard our yacht and our anchor position is vital to our safety. This is a secondary anchor alarm to supplement our main chartplotters anchor alarm which is rock solid, however even as a backup, it has to work. Any freezing or crashing is simply unacceptable for something so important. If the developers can get that issue worked out, this will be the best alarm app on the store by miles.
United StatesDon’t waste your money
I was looking forward to using this app after reading the reviews but lets give an honest review under practical application. I sail/anchor in Mexico where there is little cellular coverage in remote places. The first night we used it the alarm went off at 2 a.m., after checking my other anchor drag apps we determined we had not moved at all. The next day went to check our position and the app had lost my position all together and I had to set to last position. I used the app for three weeks straight every day and it frequently just lost our position and had to be reset to last position, I had to set the position manually every time, and the use of the app is not intuitive as you would expect it to be. It would be nice to have the app always be on so you could quickly glance at your position and know everything is ok but it goes to sleep and most time just loses you position. This app is frighting enough I would even like my money back and I will not use this in the future.
United StatesThis app does not work!
The sound from the alarm is one volume when you choose it, another when it actually engages. It last all of 4-5 seconds certainly not enough to wake a sailor from a dead sleep. Also when plugged into power and with a clear signal it disengages, turns off. It does not work!
United StatesBeware
The problem with much software is that the builder is so close to it he cannot understand what confuses the user. You won’t understand how this thing works right away. I’ve taken two weeks already and I don’t get it yet.
