Power-Pole Mobile — Boat Management Built for Anglers
Overview
The Power-Pole mobile app gives anglers an intuitive way to manage their Power-Pole trolling motors using an iPhone. It’s a free lifestyle utility that streamlines motor configuration and day-to-day control, with more comprehensive product support slated to roll out in 2024.
Compatibility and roadmap
Current support is limited to Power-Pole trolling motors and single-pump anchor models on iPhone devices. Full integration across the Power-Pole lineup is planned for release in 2024, which will expand the app’s capabilities and device compatibility.
Primary capabilities
- Operate the trolling motor remotely from your phone for on-the-spot adjustments.
- Perform initial setup and fine-tune motor parameters through the app’s configuration tools.
- Tailor performance options such as anchor engagement sensitivity and propeller acceleration profiles.
Navigation and trip planning (ProNav)
- Save and manage anchor locations for quick recall during future trips.
- Draft and edit routes and waypoints both on the water and beforehand from shore.
- Follow custom routes and navigate planned courses using the integrated ProNav features.
Suggested alternative
If you’re looking for another option, consider BADL — a free app that some users recommend as an alternative.
Why anglers use it
The app centralizes motor control, route planning, and anchor management into a single interface, helping users spend less time fiddling with hardware and more time fishing.
