About AnchorPoint
AnchorPoint helps you monitor your boat position while anchored.
Set your anchor point, choose a safe radius, and let AnchorPoint track your distance from the anchor using GPS. If your boat moves outside the selected radius, the app shows an alarm so you can react quickly.
Key features:
• GPS-based anchor monitoring
• Adjustable safe radius
• Distance from anchor
• Boat speed in knots
• GPS accuracy status
• Background tracking with an ongoing notification
• STOP TRACKING button to end monitoring
• OpenStreetMap and OpenSeaMap nautical map overlay
AnchorPoint is designed as a helpful anchor monitoring aid. It does not replace proper seamanship, navigation equipment, an anchor watch, or local maritime safety procedures.
GPS accuracy, device settings, battery optimisation, notification settings, sound volume, Do Not Disturb mode, signal loss and Android background restrictions may affect alarm reliability. Always test the app on your device and continue to monitor your vessel and surroundings.
