Anchor Alarm for Boaters for Negative User Reviews

✓ PoorCan't adjust anchor position. Ie you need to start when you actually drop the anchor as you can't adjust afterwards..Ip4s userVersion: 1.0

✓ Waste.This DOES NOT run in the background. I tried using it all summer, it resets and asks you to re drop your anchor!! Terrible..SirlandsalotVersion: 2.3

✓ Does not function as advertised.I recently purchased this app with the hopes that it would alert me if I came off of anchor. I noticed at one point my average drift according to the app well over 350 feet, this was impossible as I only have a total of 175 feet of Anchorline with less than 30 of it in the water, but never received any alerts or alarms. I was anchored in 10 feet of water and had 25 feet of Anchorline out, my drift was well over 15 feet, I intentionally set my anchor alarm for 5 feet and closed the app for several minutes during my drift and received no alerts or alarms. I would not recommend this app or trusted dependability..JP7756Version: 2.3

✓ Poor and false alarmsWoke up last night to numerous false alarms as the app keeps presenting distances multiplied by 100 e.g.3583 for 35 metres this triggers the alarm. On one occasion the app had stopped monitoring altogether. A broken night, I will not be recommending this app for a peaceful night on the hook.IanxyzabVersion: 1.0

✓ HelpI am having issues with the app and cannot find a place to write the developer. Please contact me because I need help. This is not a bad review because I like the app but I am having issues with it..StevepcltVersion: 1.0

✓ App doesn’t work for me EitherDon’t waste your money no support from developer from the app, they want you to up Grade to higher level for $11.99 good luck with that when my $1.49 didn’t get me any thing and no way to get back.54 northVersion: 2.3

✓ LIESIt says it will work in the background, but it does not! That is FALSE ADVERTISING!.RussJWVersion: 2.3

✓ ShamI can’t enable GPS positioning in settings or elsewhere so app is totally useless.JjmjcbmVersion: 2.3

✓ Don’t waist a penny on this appPurchased it and does not work on our iPhone..Answer your e-mails 1Version: 2.3

✓ Unsuitable for serious boatersThis app requires cell ph service to function. If you're anchored in a remote area where there is no cell service, it will not work. If you're in an area where cell service is weak, a signal drop out will cause the app to stop functioning. Not good!.AlwayssailingVersion: 1.0

✓ Remote function does not workInstalled on both my iphone and iPad. Paid for and activated remote monitoring. Restored purchases on my phone. Started an anchor session on iPad, I can see it in the remote monitoring screen but it doesn’t show in the remote monitoring on the phone. Even the track sharing function is useless as when received on the phone by email or sms, it doesn’t show and map background. Useless and waste of money. I tried using the support link. None of the links on the developer website work..PaacalgVersion: 2.4

✓ PoorPoor value, says it monitors in the background but it doesn't. It only warns you once you wake it up.Africat.ozVersion: 1.0

✓ Don't buyThis app is terrible. It works fine for a little while then all of a sudden it says you're drifting by 1000s of meters. Waste of money!!!.ReallyunhappyVersion: 1.0

✓ No starsThis app is supposed to run in the background. Which it doesn’t. I just set it last night and when I got up this morning it’s wanting me to drop the anchor? What a waste. Give this one a pass.The dark CanucksVersion: 2.3

✓ App doesn’t work....Do not waste your money on this app... it doesn't work... tells me to turn on location services and when you go to the app in settings, there is no selection for location services. I WANT MY HARD EARNED MONEY BACK !!!.LANCER36Version: 2.3
