Anchor Watch User Reviews

Top reviews

Not Reliable!

Good interface and functionality, but just randomly stops by its self. You never can be sure if it’s on! No effective support that I can find? Seems others having the same experience.

Anchor watch

We have found it to be very easy to use and reliable- I would recommend to boating friends

Hopeless

It does not work

Rubbish.

Keeps turning off. Never sure if it’s working. Does not alarm if phone ringer set to silent. Bugs not fixed over past 2 years. Find another product to use.

Total garbage

Didn’t work at all. Alarms start sounding the second you’re not actively looking at the app and we weren’t dragging anchor at all. Fix your gps positioning running in the background.

Don’t waste your money.

Does not SMS using carrier provider

The app is hard configured to only send SMS via Messagebird account and con not be configured to utilise mobile phone providers SMS.

Crashes half the time. Poor instructions.

If 1/2 the time is good enough, get it.

Great app

This app has been working well for several years. It does the basic alarm plus many other things like send out a Txt message alarm, great for lunch or dinner outings

Doesn’t alarm

I haven’t been able to get it to alarm. Other reviews are 4 years old. I’m assuming it has not been maintained. Will delete it and buy a different one.

Godsend! Straightforward and reliable.

This is the fourth anchor watch app I have downloaded and it really works! Unlike the others, frankly. The add on features are valuable too - calling out to another phone if the boat moves outside the circle you yourself define. Or changes heading. Strongly recommended.
