TidePredictor

About this app

TidePredictor is an efficient and complete tide/current data resource. It contains a worldwide database of more than 3300 tidal reporting stations. It display a daily tide/current prediction graph and an adjacent calendar for the month.

TidePredictor doesn't need an Internet connection to function, which makes this application ideal for boaters and others who need tidal information in remote locations.

TidePredictor can export its predictions in the form of a graphic file (for the detailed daily graph) and an HTML page (for the monthly calendar).

Oh, one more thing. TidePredictor is free -- there are no ads, there's no upgrade to a pro version, no annoying come-ons. Free. Did I mention that it's free?

TidePredictor is the third -- and by far the best -- tidal forecast program I've written over a period of fifteen years. In more than 90% of cases, its predictions are identical to those printed in tide tables. This is a program written by someone who understands the physics, the math as well as the needs of sailors (I've sailed solo around the world).

I've performed some exhaustive tests, but if any difficulties arise in this new application, please let me know.

Ratings and reviews

Unusable. App would freeze every time it was opened. Eventually a message would be displayed stating the app was not responding.

Time on tide curve is stuck in GMT, whereas other tide info stuck in system time. only 2-hourly graduations on tide curve. Not a patch on the previous version, which was perfect!

Works offline. Predicts further into the future. No ads. Free. Brill!
