Description of Anchor Pro

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.

Reviews of Anchor Pro

Fun to have aboard

Reasonably accurate IF you have WiFi. A SECONDARY source to a vigilant anchor watch by sight, RADAR and GPS.

No customer service

I recently upgraded to the paid version. Waste, screen only shows half the area and despite 3 emails over two weeks I have had no response.

2 Years of use.

I’ve been using this app for 3 seasons, coastal cruising on a 34’ sailboat. It works decently well.

Last night I had my drag radius set for 225’ to give the anchor a little time to reset because I had plenty of space. Anchor alarm went off after a 180deg swing reversal but did not go off for over 700’ putting us almost on another boat. Maybe it was user error, but this incident made me question the app.
