Remote function does not work

Installed 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.

Would not recommend

Alarm does not make a noise goes to snooze

Not usable

Don't rely on this

The promise is that it works operating in the background. Just not true. No alarm sounds when the anchor drifts. Just dangerous to rely on this.

LIES

It says it will work in the background, but it does not! That is FALSE ADVERTISING!

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.

No stars

This 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

Useless

Totally useless. Does NOT operate when the phone sleeps. You drift, no alarm.

App doesn’t work for me Either

Don’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

Not good

Don’t wAist your money

Sham

I can’t enable GPS positioning in settings or elsewhere so app is totally useless

Does not work any version

And I can not receive a support. What can I do?

Don’t waist a penny on this app

Purchased it and does not work on our iPhone.

Doesn’t work

Program doesn’t work in background. I want my money back.

Keine GPS Daten einstellbar. Nutzlos

Die Apps erfordert eine Einstellung der GPS Daten. Dies ist aber in der Apps Einstellung nicht vorgesehen und nicht möglich

More money they want

They want more money for these features.

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 !!!

Funktioniert nicht.

Sehr ärgerlich, Geld zum Fenster hinaus geschmissen. Es kann nicht auf die GOS. Daten zugreifen.

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.

Update

Please add an update, my iPad is going mad on iOS 11

Do not use this app

Just dragged anchor 300M and no alarm went off!!! Unreliable and dangerous app. Nearly ended up on the rocks
