ABOUT PREDICTIONS
Predictions are based on the harmonic method, using constants from the Hydro offices (UKHO, SHOM, NOAA, BOM, CHS etc). There are differences between the app predictions and the official Hydro office tide tables, as these are based on large numbers of constants that are not made publicly available. The Hydro offices consider the harmonic methods used in this product appropriate for navigation.

Always consult tidal curves and take into account local weather (pressure and wind) and swell conditions, which can have a very significant effect on sea water levels.

Ratings and reviews

Sept 2026 - Yet again imray pull out another awful update, honestly you guys should learn that if it's not broken don't fix it. This is the last year I will be using this app. (old review) - This has always been my go to for tide information but the latest skin and update is awful, it's slow to load, hard to navigate. All the previous favourites have been wiped and it is anything but straight forward to try and understand how to navigate through the various buttons and screens.

Terrible update Since the new update, the views all seem to have changed and are nowhere near as user friendly. More importantly, I bought a year license for the UK back in February and now it doesn't allow me to look forwards (May to June). Finally, I click on a saved Favourite for today's tidal range and it asks if I'm sure I want to go there - ridiculous!

Where's the Android help? IoS is available. Is it the same? Don't like that you can't click an arrow to move to the next day. The help isn't very good. No description of what the clocks do (I wasn't too sure about the red & green hands in the last version, but was just getting used to it!). Always says today's date in the tides, despite it obviously changing & the calendar is on the date I want. Time indicated is very confusing. I'm not at all confident using this!

What’s new

The build includes the following updates:
- Fixed: on tablets, the time and depth shown as you drag along the tide curve now match the point you are touching
- Fixed: on tablets, the tide graph's depth scale can be dragged from anywhere on it, not only its right-hand edge
- Fixed: the currents map now shows the date and hour you are viewing, instead of a count of hours from now
