SET THE ANCHOR Anchor Pro allows you to set the anchor location directly as you are setting the anchor, or specify the location of the anchor later by providing distance and bearing to the anchor. More advanced users can also specify the coordinates of the anchor. SPECIFY ALLOWED AREA You can specify the allowed area to be a simple circle around the anchor location, or opt for a more advanced area by providing two different distances at specific angles. MONITOR THE MOVEMENT The application provides you with enough data to keep you on top of every movement of the boat. You can review all the data from the main screen or graphically check position on the map where you can also see how the boat moved around — perfect for analysis if the anchor is holding or dragging. GET ALERTED WHEN NEEDED The application allows monitoring of the position, GPS reception, and battery level. You can get alerted when any of those metrics reach certain thresholds. REMOTE ALERTS When you are not on a boat you can leave the phone there and get alerted in the event of an alarm. You can be alerted via instant message using a Telegram app or via an email message. With Telegram, you can also request the status of the application at any moment. APPLE WATCH You can use the Apple Watch app to always have distance, bearing and battery level available in real-time — from your wrist.

Anchor Pro's terms of use: https://links.ideaboys.net/anchor-ios-terms.html MORE INFORMATION Anchor Pro uses background audio and location update modes to keep you alerted when the application is not in the foreground. Please note: Continuous use of GPS will cause the battery to discharge more quickly.
Pro does not work
I paid for the pro service.The remote function bugs constantly or just doesn’t work at all.
Great App for Bedside Use
This works very well, the paid version is well worth the subscription. Downside is you better make sure the alarm volume is up before you rely on it for night time use. App volume is not the same as ringer volume. App hasn’t had an update in 2 years so there may be better out there by now.
Love Anchor Pro
I love this program. It works as advertised and we sleep much better knowing exactly how our sailboat is laying at anchor, especially during gales, like the one we experienced last week. I also use Telegram to keep an eye on our sailboat while we are away.
So Yeah
Really crappy interface. Good luck.
Awesome App
My family and I have been cruising the oceans aboard our sailboat for three years. I started using Anchor Pro about two years ago. It is an awesome app. I always have it on. Be sure to check out the advance features on setting up distance and using satellite overlay on the map page to see the reefs and bommies.
Fácil de usar y confiable
Tengo un par de meses usando anchor pro en el mar de Cortez en el área de la Paz - Loreto, y estoy muy contento. Puedo dormir y descansar sabiendo que anchor pro está cuidando mi posición con respecto a mi anclaje. La alarma es muy buena, me ha despertado en la madrugada en dos ocaciones en las que el ancla ha arrastrando, lo que me permite ajustar el ancla antes de entrar en cualquier situación de riesgo, y volver a dormir o a poner mi atención en otras cosas La recomiendo ampliamente.
Greatest
Great to have. Thanks
