Comments on Anchor Alarm for Android

★★★★★ Ian Hogg · Jun 25, 2022

Initial testing looks very promising. An improvement I suggest is 1. To locate the distance of the radius displayed on the map perhaps above the center as the direction line cuts through the digit, and you can't read what it is. 2. Before turning in for the night, I like to test the alarm works. When I manually shift the center to check the alarm it is only visual, I do not get audible alarm when manually shifting the alarm radius for test. But it seems exactly what I want. Easy and simple.

Works perfectly....the sound for the alarm they choose for the app makes you think you need to abandon ship but other than that, excellent!

★★★★★ Greg Guster · Feb 23, 2026

We live aboard in the Abacus, Bahamas. We pay the small yearly fee, and it is an amazing app. Rarely do wind get high enough to drag, but when they do, Anchor Alarm works perfectly. Last night, winds 30+ knots, then changed 180⁰ at 2 in the morning. Anchor Alarm started going off. It took me a minute to realize what was going on, but I opened the app, and you could clearly see my position dots moving downwind, in a straight line. A medium crowded Anchorage. Would hit someone eventually.

★★☆☆☆ Radu Serbanescu · Aug 10, 2025

Pairing does not work, the sender alarm stops sending updates to the receiver. This is a paid feature that should work flawlessly as it is a safety problem if it stops.

★☆☆☆☆ Fly Gringo · Apr 20, 2023

Useless. Set anchor, app appears to work. Pulled up anchor and moved 300 meters to a different spot. App thinks we are still at the same spot. Finally, 15 minutes after moving, alarm goes off. In a crucial scenario, boat would have been bashing against the rocks already.

★★☆☆☆ Al Apaka · May 7, 2026

Stops after an hour or two. I had another anchor app going at the same time that works flawlessly. An anchor alarm that stops working unexpectedly, without warning is not just useless but dangerous.

★☆☆☆☆ Louis Monge · Sep 5, 2024

Tried it, paid for it to connect to my other phone, it worked for the first 10 min but during the night it stopped working. I opened the app in the morning and everything was reset like I never used it. Bad app, dangerous...
