Re: Drag Queen

I loaded on my phone, set the alarm and walked down the block and it never alarmed.

Then I deleted it!

Re: Drag Queen

Drag Queen is the only alarm I use. It alerts just fine. I set it at 60% of the scope and get awoken for every tide change.

Re: Drag Queen

Wow, this is really weird, maybe it's an operating system issue?
I use it on an Iphone, are the ones that don't work Android?
