Anchor Alert Customer Insights

1. Seems worse in windy conditions with boat swinging.Please add NMEA for lat/lon would allow us to monitor anchor position using the boats GPS antenna.

2. Not recommended.Good so far, even though it is relatively easy to use it would be nice to have a youtube tutorial.Excelente .Works great until it does not.

3. It seems to work great until you fall asleep, then it will generate a false alarm or GPS error and wake you up.

4. And does it easier than any other app I have tried.This app has been a great way to sleep better while on the hook.

5. Tried for three days in windy conditions, no luck.

6. One thing that is interesting is that although I have a steel boat the app works fine below on Android 4.1 (HUAWEI ) .

7. With the message capabilities, even going ashore is less of a "I hope we're still in the same place" moment.Tried them all.

8. try another app.Tried for 8 nights on three occasions and two different phones.

9. Waking up every 2-3 hrs for a GPS failure on a windy night is no good.

10. Works better than my Garmin! I notice my original story appears on the website so I won't repeat it here.

11. I tried this when at anchor a few weeks ago.
