Store — subscriptions and chart regions
The Store tab has three sections, switched by a segmented control:
Plan — subscriptions. Nautical Charts — chart regions.
Jules Needs — one-time token packs for the AI crew.
A promotion banner at the top shows the current offer, if any.
Plan — subscriptions
The Plan section lists the available subscription levels. Each card shows
the price, the duration, the features included, and a purchase button.
The plan you are currently on is marked Current Plan, and shows when it
next renews — Renews 12 May 2026 — or, if you have cancelled, when it
will lapse — Expires 12 May 2026.
If a plan includes a free trial, the purchase button reads
Try N days Free and a line beneath it confirms No charge today —
you are only billed when the trial ends, and you can cancel any time before
then. Plans without a trial show a Cancel anytime reassurance instead.
The Yearly billing option carries a SAVE % badge (or a BEST VALUE
badge while exact savings are still loading) and a "≈ per-month equivalent"
note so you can compare against Monthly at a glance.
The whole Store — Plan, Jules Needs, and the chart-region cards — follows your
device language; on a Turkish device every label, button, and badge is shown
in Turkish.
What the subscriptions unlock:
Below the plans is a small Add-ons row for à-la-carte unlocks — including
Remote Mode (unlocks the SafeAnchor Remote
channels — creating private channels and flotillas) and the high-resolution
satellite imagery unlock. Buying Remote Mode grants the same Pro-level access to
the Remote features.
Apple handles billing. To cancel, use iOS Settings → your name →
Subscriptions — AnchorQueen stays on the free tier when the paid period
ends.
Legacy App & Product Migration
With the launch of the unified AnchorQueen app (which merges the legacy standalone AnchorAlarm and SeaTracker platforms into a single unified workspace), we have streamlined our subscription plans and retired legacy products:
Charts — regions
The Charts section is a browsable catalog of chart regions — Mediterranean,
United States East Coast, Baltic, and so on. Each card shows:
Free Chart Packs Allowance
Depending on your subscription tier, you receive complimentary Free Chart Pack slots that allow you to unlock complete high-resolution chart regions without purchasing individual subscriptions:
If you wish to access more chart regions beyond your tier's free allowance, you can purchase individual yearly paid subscriptions ($14.99/year per region) with no limit on the number of regions you can hold.
The Permanent Slot Ledger (Anti-Cheat Policy)
To ensure fair play and prevent slot cycling exploits (such as repeatedly claiming, deleting, and cycling through regions), claimed free chart packs utilize a secure Permanent Slot Ledger:
Free for You — pinned section
When you are browsing the Store sub-tab, any region that costs you
nothing right now is lifted into a Free for You section pinned to the
top of the list (marked with a gift icon). This covers two cases:
charge).
do not yet own is claimable, so the catalog surfaces here with a
CLAIM FREE button. Once your slots are spent (or on the Free tier,
which has none), the section collapses and only owned regions remain.
The priced regions continue to appear below, grouped by coastline.
Tap a card to open the region detail sheet, which reads like a short cruising
guide for the area:

bounding box.

A region you install becomes available offline on every chart tab —
SeaTracker, Capt's Notebook, and Merconi.
My Charts — subscription status
Regions you have claimed or subscribed to appear under My Charts, and each card shows where its licensing status stands:
Expiration and Grace Period Lifecycle
To balance security with safety at sea, expired regions (both paid subscriptions and expired free packs) transition through a 3-state expiration lifecycle:
A chart's status updates automatically when it renews, when you cancel, or after a Restore Purchases.
Jules Needs — token packs
Every plan gives Jules a daily token budget that resets each
day. If you run out before the reset — a long planning session, a busy
passage — the Jules Needs section sells one-time token packs that add
bonus capacity on top of your daily budget.
At the top, a usage panel shows where you stand today:
Below that are the packs — currently a Deckhand Pack and a larger,
better-value Navigator Pack. Tap Buy; Apple shows its own confirmation
sheet. As soon as the purchase clears, the tokens are added to your bonus
balance and the usage panel updates.
Token packs are a one-time purchase, not a subscription. Bonus tokens
never expire, and they are only drawn down after your daily plan budget is
used up — so a pack you buy today still helps weeks later.
Updates
When new data is published for a region, an update badge appears on
the Store tab itself and on the region card. Tap Update to pull the
fresh data; the old install is replaced atomically.
Searching and filtering
A search bar narrows the catalog by name. Filter chips group regions by
sea or continent.
