WHY SAILORS CHOOSE SAFETY ANCHOR ALARM
APPLE WATCH COMPANION APP
Monitor your anchor watch from your wrist. Live radar screen shows your boat's position and alarm status in real time. When your anchor drags, your Watch alerts you with sound and haptic vibration — even while sleeping.
LIVE ACTIVITY & DYNAMIC ISLAND
See your anchor status, distance, and safe radius directly on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island — without even opening the app. Always know where your boat lies at a glance.
RELIABLE BACKGROUND MONITORING
Continuous GPS tracking in the background while your screen is locked or you switch to other apps. The blue location indicator confirms your boat is being watched at all times.
POWERFUL ANCHOR DRAG ALARM
When your vessel moves beyond the safe radius, a loud alarm sounds immediately — even in the background. The alarm cuts through, so you never miss a critical alert.
SMART GPS VERIFICATION
Minimizes false alarms caused by GPS signal spikes. Smart verification confirms real anchor drag before triggering the alarm.
SMART RADIUS CONTROL
Set your watch circle with precision. Fine-tune your anchor point on the map and adjust the alarm radius meter by meter.
