Simple Tides
Detailed App Info:
Application Description
Simple no-nonsense app to see tide graphs and tables from monitoring stations near you.
July 16, 2011: Added more than 2200 new stations across the US.
September 4, 2011: A reviewer commented that the white line representing current-time is off. That issue is now fixed.
✓ Browse stations on a map
✓ View Tide Chart & Table for a station in one concise screen
✓ Current weather + forecast at every tide station
✓ Calendar allows quickly jumping to any desired date
✓ Save frequently accessed stations to a Favorites list for quick access
✓ Check the current weather + forecast for any spot on the map
✓ Get fast support from within the app!
Please note that the list of tide-monitoring stations is fixed. A tide monitoring station is where there is constant actual measurement of water-levels. Users cannot "add" locations. You must choose the nearest tide monitoring station to get tide-predictions.
Note that when the app is launched for the first time, it will ask for access to your location to show nearby tide monitoring stations. Please choose Yes at this point to avoid the hassle of having to manually enable it later.
July 25, 2011: One reviewer has commented that tide times are off by one hour in the app, however they are *not*. Most likely the reviewer has checked against another source that is not correcting for daylight savings time. This app does, and matches 100% with the official tide times published by the US NOAA Tides & Currents dept.
Notes:
✓ This app is useful for users in the US only.
