Good app but drops out after a few hours, can’t depend on the app which makes it useless as an anchor alarm.

Description
Keep calm. With DragAlarm you can relax in your boat, on the beach, at the bar or wherever you want. This app stands watch and notifies you if the anchor is improperly secured and your boat is dragging.
Activate DragAlarm when you're letting go the chain or once you’re anchored. Just following a few steps the app calculates the swinging radius or otherwise you can enter it manually. Once it has been configured, you will see the map with the location of the anchor on the screen, the swinging circle and the ship with her tracking. Remember that you should let go the chain at least 3 times the depth to ensure a good anchorage.
- No internet connection required. (Except for the alert via email).
- It is recommended to use the app with the iPhone / iPad plugged in.
- Setting the map type: map, hybrid or satellite.
- Setting the GPS accuracy to save battery power.
- Changing measurement units: meters, feet or fathoms.
- Alert via email with information regarding dragging distance, position, time, GPS error and battery level.
- Ability to respond to the alert on your Apple Watch.
WARNING
A continued use of the GPS in the background can dramatically decrease the battery life.
DragAlarm makes use of the GPS antenna. Take into account that not all iOS devices have this inbuilt antenna and therefore this app may not work properly. All iPhones do have the antenna. Only the 3G Cellular iPad with data connection has GPS antenna.

So Far so good
Lucky my anchors have held. But defiantly had better nights sleep being able to look at phone in be rather than having to get up. I would recommend this app to my friends for sure, and have done.

Great app
This is a fantastic app but could use a tweak to make it really awesome.
Have it remember the last anchor position. For a number of reasons it would be useful for the app to always remember the last anchor setting even if you close the app. Sometime the app resets and sometime you want to close it to save battery then recheck again in a few hours. Sometime I sleep with the app running if I don't trust the holding and if the app resets (which is does sometimes for some reason) I have to redo the anchor settings in the dark.
