Ratings and Reviews
Poor precision
Poor interface for adjusting the anchor alarm / zooming in on the map. The radius adjustment is tedious and if you want to check on it and zoom you most often change the allowed anchor radius causing an alarm.
You also get a lot of false alarms which makes it useless for longer stays, where you would actually need it.
