The most reliable and modern remote anchor alarm. Let's Hook Your Boat Down! Hooked is your trusty digital anchor watch. It keeps a sharp eye on your boat's position, sounding the alarm if it drifts beyond your comfort zone. Enjoy the same peace of mind whether you're on deck or ashore, without draining your device's battery. Key Features: * Real-time Tracking: Watch your boat's movements like a hawk. Colorful trails make it easy to see where you've been. * Remote Command Center: Control your anchor session from anywhere with an internet connection. Pause, adjust, or relocate your session with ease – it's all up to you. * History Buff: Review past anchor sessions to analyze your boating patterns. * Customization Galore: Tailor Hooked to your preferences. Adjust units, track appearance, and even the alarm volume. * Share the Love: Let friends and family keep an eye on your boat too. * Smart Connectivity: Hooked plays nice with other devices. Connect to your chart plotter for more accurate GPS data and to view depth and wind speed. * Energy Efficient: Hooked is designed to be gentle on your device's battery, ensuring it lasts as long as you need it. * GPS Savvy: Hooked intelligently filters out unreliable GPS signals, preventing false alarms. * Low Battery Alert: Never be caught off guard. Hooked warns you when your device is running low. Note: Remote monitoring requires two Hooked-equipped devices with internet access and a Hooked Premium subscription for the boat-based device. For a cheaper option you can also subscribe to Hooked Essential which enables remote notifications (comparable to Anchor Pro’s “Anchor Premium”). Ready to drop anchor with confidence? Hooked is your go-to companion for worry-free boating.

Very Good Experience

We recently did a 10 day charter in the Caribbean and bought this app after looking at all of the anchor alarm options. Overall, I was very pleased. The app never had a problem, and tracked any movement seach night whether anchored or moored. I was especially pleased with being able to share an anchor session. That way, I could leave my phone on the boat, share the session with my wife, and go ashore with her phone and without worrying about the boat. That function worked flawlessly. The only challenge I had was getting the anchor “dropped” in the right place to start a session. I would have to adjust the location manually after we got the boat settled. Could have been an inexperienced user and not a huge deal, but that was my only challenge. Overall, a great product, that the developer continues to update routinely.

Best App for Remote Viewing

Finding an anchor app that allowed remote viewing without draining my phone's battery was impossible before this app.The ability to view it remotely exactly like it is shown locally is key, and the device that's monitoring doesn't have to constantly run the app and drain my battery.Also, I really love the color gradient on the tracks which shows you the history of where you're track has been.

Best Anchoring App!

We’ve been out sailing the world since 2017 and have tried all sorts of anchoring apps. This is hands-down the best app out there. The premium edition is absolutely worth the $20 per year. The ability to have remote alerts when we’re off the boat is what sold us on it, but since getting it we’ve found so many amazing features. Off you value your boat (and your sleep) you’ll love this app!

I gave a poor earlier review on Hooked Premium because of a bug that caused it to read an incorrect longitude value from our PredictWind Data Hub, and this caused the app to crash.I finally figured out how to contact the developer and filed a bug report, and they had a fixed version ready within 12 hours.It now seems to work perfectly and I’m now happy with the product!
