ParkPulse vs Anchor

ParkPulse remembers where you parked, so you can get on with your day. SAVE YOUR SPOT Save your location, a photo, level, row, garage column, space, and notes in seconds. Your essential parking details stay on your device and remain available offline. STAY AHEAD OF THE CLOCK Choose a 15, 30, 60, or 120 minute timer, or create your own. Get reminders 15, 10, and 5 minutes before expiry, plus one when time runs out. Prefer no limit? ParkPulse tracks elapsed parking time until you return. FIND YOUR WAY BACK See the distance to your car, get walking directions, and optionally receive a reminder when you return close to your saved spot. BUILT FOR TRAVEL AND GARAGES Use your preferred currency, reference price estimates, local restriction notes, and on-device OCR to record a garage floor, column, or space. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No ads. No trackers. You control permissions and can delete your parking history in Settings. Parking rates and rules are reference information only. Always follow posted signs, tickets, and official operator instructions.

DROP IT. WALK AWAY. FIND IT AGAIN. Anchor turns your iPhone into a direct line back to a place you want to find again. Save your car, meet-up point, campsite, hotel, trailhead or any custom coordinate, then follow the live compass back. HOW IT WORKS 1. Drop an anchor at your current position. 2. Walk away and enjoy your day. 3. Follow the needle, distance and bearing when it is time to return. BUILT FOR PLACES WITH BAD RECEPTION Anchor uses the iPhone's satellite positioning, compass and motion sensors. It needs no map tiles, mobile data, Wi-Fi or downloaded regions. When GPS is obstructed, Step Estimate uses your steps and compass while clearly showing the growing uncertainty. EVERYTHING YOU NEED • Live direction, distance, bearing and elevation • Car, meet-up, campsite, trailhead, hotel, boat and custom anchors • Private saved-anchor vault • Editable names, categories and notes • Copy or intentionally share a saved coordinate • A full compass rose and heading readout, with or without an anchor • Manual latitude and longitude entry • Metric and imperial units • Five OLED-friendly night-vision palettes • Optional tactile guidance as you turn toward the target FREE, WITH ONE OPTIONAL UNLOCK Anchor is free with one saved anchor, which each new drop can replace, plus full guidance, Step Estimate, every safety feature and two night-vision palettes. A one-time purchase lets you keep every anchor, enter coordinates by hand and use all five palettes. No subscription. PRIVATE BY CONSTRUCTION No account. No advertising. No analytics. No tracking. No server. Saved anchors and sensor readings stay on your iPhone and are excluded from backups unless you deliberately share a coordinate. Anchor provides a direct-line bearing, not a turn-by-turn walking route. Always follow safe paths, signs, local rules and real-world conditions. Do not use Anchor as your only emergency or wilderness navigation tool.
