Why?
Why does this app need access to Facebook or my personal email to even launch? Don’t use this.
Fail
First thing it asks for is a login. I prefer to use my email instead of going through Google or Facebook. But there is no choice to set up a login. It assumes you already have an account and wants a password.
So I couldn’t even try the app. Huge usability fail.

Clunky
Setup is clunky but I figured it out. Received several false drag alerts. I finally just turned it off and used my other trusty anchor alarm. Not impressed
Good potential, needs reliability
Has good potential. However, my DataHub frequently (1-3 times a week) disconnects from Starlink WiFi with no alert. The anchor alarm thus stops working but there is no notification. I leave my anchor alert on when I move anchorages. 50% of the time, no drag alert is triggered. When the alert is triggered, it also takes too many minutes. I’d have dragged anchor onto a beech before the alert is triggered on my phone.
