Gets better and better

I’ve been using Hooked for the last year as my ‘go to’ anchor alarm. The developers are improving reliability and adding genuinely useful features all the time, plus they’re very responsive to queries and feedback. Excellent.

Best there is

Easy to use, connects you apple devices seamlessly. Leave a iPad on the boat and see live data on your phone!
I did contact the support for an issue I had, it got resolved within minutes! Awesome team!

Très très bien

Très agréable à utiliser

Response from developer

Bonjour! Merci de votre revue. Cette option existe déjà dans les réglages. Vous pouvez activer une alarme quand le niveau de batterie diminue à moins de 20%. Vous pouvez aussi ajuster le pourcentage si vous voulez par exemple une alarme quand le niveau atteint 10%. Bon ancrage !

Better than Anchor Pro

I have used Anchor Pro for over three years and really like it.

However, Hooked looks and feels like Anchor Pro but does anchor repositioning much better and the remote monitoring is Awesome.

Shares anchoring position!

Currently, this is the best solo anchoring app available. It allows you to share entering position with another device so you can leave your phone and get notifications. There is some room for improvement.

Excellent Free App

I have been using Hooked for a few years. It’s simple, easy, and accurate. I like their satellite view option, in clear waters you can see your track line and reference distance to rocks/reefs.

Thank you so much for your review!

Best app purchase to-date!

I purchased the Premium subscription to Hooked before our trip to the Abacos last Spring (bareboat charter) fully expecting to end my subscription when we returned home as we primarily boat on inland lakes. A year later I am so pleased with the insight and peace of mind this app brings. We frequently anchor overnight and I rest easy knowing I’ll never miss an anchor drag alarm.

Thank you for creating and maintaining such a wonderful tool! The only improvement I’d wish for is compatibility with Android since we are a divided household when it comes to tech 😉

Meilleure application d’ancrage

Pour en avoir essayé plusieurs, c’est certainement la meilleure application de mouillage. Permet de suivre son ancrage à distance avec un deuxième appareil laissé à bord (réseau nécessaire).
Facile d’utilisation, mais avec des options très complètes. L’application peut se connecter au système électronique du bateau via le réseau nmea et remonter les informations principales.

Very useful; good functionality

Very useful app. Much better than other anchor alarms I have used; this has become my ‘go to’ anchor alarm.

Magnifique appli

Appli extrêmement bien pensée, je dors tranquille au mouillage même si je ne connais pas le coin

The best anchoring app

So far this is best anchoring app I’ve used. Sharing with a second device onboard it a great feature.

Reliable

So far very reliable

Great App

Déclenchements intempestifs

Je ne comprends pas, cela fait 2 fois en 2 semaines que l’alarme ce déclenche au beau milieu de la nuit, alors que nous dormons profondément chez nous et qu’aucune ancre n’est activée😡

Bonjour, nous aimerions comprendre ce qui a pu se passer. Pouvez-vous nous contacter à hookedanchorapp@gmail.com?

The best anchoring app out there

This app is a modern and responsive way to track boat movement both locally and remotely. It provides a great peace of mind when on land and a way to keep an eye on positioning when onboard! Best app I have tried out there (and I’ve tried lots)!

Best anchor alarm/monitor

By far the best app based anchor alarm I have used. Love the easy way to share the anchor session and ability to start and stop sessions. The history of distance and bearing to anchor is super cool as well.

Also like having NMEA data show at the same time!

Easy, loud accurate

Easy to use, loud alarm, accurate and really good sat photos to help find the perfect sand patch amongst bommies.

Best of its type

The concept, functionality & user interface for this app is excellent; I genuinely think it’s the best of its type. I’ve tried many and this is the only one I’d actually pay for. Occasionally struggles with losing GPS lock (likely an iOS issue), but can usually be prodded back into action.

Excellent

Quelques interruptions de connexion, pas top
