DragQueen is a simple anchor alarm. It provides distance and GPS accuracy alarms along with an alarm delay. The alarm is quite annoying and is the perfect thing to waken you at night if it detects anchor dragging to your specifications.

Never use DragQueen as the sole source for any type of navigation.

Latest reviews of DragQueen Anchor Alarm app for iPhone and iPad

Great App.
Saved me some nights awake on watch. Really like that app. Works great on 4S. GPS data on the 3GS are a bit shakey with some false alarms.
iPod Touch Gen 5 problem
Used the app with success and to good effect on my iPhone 4. On new iPod Touch, app seems to have problem with GPS. The "Set" button is quickly replaced with "GPS Not Responding" message. Hence, cannot set location and app is not usable.
Almost useless
If you close the app it loses saved position.
Never worked right
Maybe its my phone but this has never worked. Deleted and reinstalled. Sometimes the alarm goes off without even moving. Then I reset it and walked 400 feet with it set to 50. Never went off. Too bad because I love AC.
Easy to use anchor alarm
This free app actually offers much more that just an anchor alarm in that it give you useful GPS information as you move around whether or not you are using it as intended. But as a anchor alarm it is easy to use, offers full instructions, and customization to fit your needs. i have been waiting for such an app and am pleased that it is offered for all to us.
