How to input new anchorage Active Captain

I have both AquaMaps and Navionics on my Ipad. I'd like to input a new anchorage and post a review. I can't seem to figure out how to do that within the apps. Can anyone tell me how to do that?

I'm quite sure that you can't do it.
Usually I note coordinates within Aqua Map and insert the new anchorage on Active Captain website.

OK, so I'm on the Active Captain website, logged in and looking at the map. I don't see anything on the screen that let's me input any information. I want to input an anchorage review where there is no previous review.

Re: How to input new anchorage Active Captain

OK, I figured it out. On the "Map" page - click the little arrow on the left. The screen then gives you the choice to "Add Marker". Then you can chose what symbol to use and drag/drop that symbol onto the map where you want it, add info and reviews, etc.

Re: How to input new anchorage Active Captain

Thank you. I’d really like to see active captain updated again! It was a great tool with a good community updating it - until Garmin bought them and totally hosed it! It has been declining in functionally and current information ever sense.... but probably has increase the sales for cruising guides 😉

Re: How to input new anchorage Active Captain

my humble opinion
but why would you want to give free info to

a company that totally screwed up active captain
that includes the original people that created it
