I purchased this app over a year ago. Since then I upgraded to a new phone. Using the same account, when I install the app on the new phone, I can't get live view. When I click on Add Live View and Upgrade Now, it gives me an error and says I already own the app. Uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't help. This problem has persisted for months and the developer hasn't been able to resolve it.

Hello, I'm new user of the app. I'm enthusiastic by this, by possibility increase safety on small yacht without MMSI! However, I'm usually a bit strict on applications that collect more personal data than necessary. Especially, if the app is payed. Please correct me if I'm wrong. >>> 1, Unlike the User guide in the application, which says about "Location sharing enabling" (in describing "Onboard" button), I couldn't find this switch anywhere. So, If I understand well, the current version DO NOT enable Collision detection without internet transmisting own position to your net, isn't it? >>> 2, If I try switch "Onboard" without PERMANENT use Background location, this function is refused. I understand the philosophy: By single click start all safety functionality. No doubts, no forgotten something, no problems with darked screen. But I'm not a blunt consumer, I'm a responsible sailor! I have a cell phone in my pocket that will discharge in a few hours in a weak signal. And I want to be the one who evaluates myself in places where there is a risk of a collision, such as near a port or a busy waterway - after whole day sailing for example. I want to be the one who decides to share my coordinates, unless the law imposes this obligation. A strong warning when switching off 1, or 2, is fine. But making them completely impossible is unacceptable for me. If these obstacles are insurmountable, I will be disappointed and ask for a refund.

Does not have anchor alarm for Droid. Can't use. They said they dont advertise it will alarm in droid. Also, when I used it as an anchor watch it missed most of the boat movement. Other onboard tools charted movement all around the Anchorage but this app missed about 50% . I did not get an email about leaving the set perimeter either. Did get one when we pulled anchor and about 1/4 mile away.

Hi, you must be using/thinking about another app. BoatBeacon on android does not have an anchor watch or alarm feature and does not have a way to set a perimeter. So if you got an alarm from 1/4 mile away this must be from a different app. Please contact us at help@pocketmariner.com so we can advise.
