Reviews on Boat Beacon for iOS

★★★★★ Works Great!
Especially like the anchor alarm. I like that it now feeds AIS info into my Navionics Boating App
★★★★★ New user
Loaded this app since the boat I am on doesn’t have a functioning AIS, and we are doing a night sail in Florida waters and was concerned about safe. It help with a near mis of a pleasure craft heading our way. Works great as long as you have cell service!!!! Maybe a next enhancement for the developers, a way to be functional when cell is not available. For costal it is a good lower cost option than a full transceiver AIS.
★★★★★ Great
Great app ,it keep me aware , next I’ll upgrade
★★★★★ Fantastic
LOVE this app. I use it while sailing so friends and family can track my activity. We also used it on a circumnavigation to track our fleet. So easy to use and very stable and reliable. Can’t recommend it enough.
