Ratings and reviews

The interface is good and the adverts aren't too obtrusive. It's simple and effective. The low rating is because the data aren't accurate enough - I selected Dartmouth, Stoke Gabriel, and Totnes, the times and heights I'm getting for Totnes and Stoke Gabriel are the same (which is wrong), and the difference between Dartmouth and Totnes I'm pretty sure is wrong too. I wanted to plan paddling trips up and down the estuary so those differences are pretty crucial to timing the trip.

Good tide data well presented. Not 100% intuitive as to that the next tide event is but having 24 hours worth on screen is great and combined with sunset etc it really covers all of the bases. One miff, with no signal it clears everything and reports unable to fetch data - but the data from when I last had WiFi would still have told me the next tide times if it were still there.

At first I had an issue with the tides in the app. I reached out to adim and they did a good job resolving my is issues and now the tides info us sorted. I was impressed that they actually came back to me and always replied to my emails sent.. I walk alot along our South Coast Beach and the tide info is rather helpful not to mention the weather updates. Thanks guys.. Good app.. Hope any updates keep it that way.
