Ratings and reviews

Really great app for canoeing or fishing to keep you up to date with river levels and store favourites. You can set alarms which is useful to track river levels however it would be good to be able to set different alarms for different types of situation. Eg if you wanted to use the app to track a river hight for the purpose of potential flooding then it would be useful to have an alarm to wake you up however knowing the river level for prime fishing conditions is less urgent.

Love this app. I am an avid whitewater paddler , river guide and kayak instructor. Water levels are crucial. Before I found this app I had to jump around to many websites to find that information. This app makes it simple. I recommend this app to my fellow employees and paddlers. Only thing I would like to see is precipitation information and water temperature. If this can't be "pulled" from gauge info then maybe just put a link to the gauge site.

A good app. I haven't worked out whether the levels are proportional to the river's maximum, or for kayaking grade. I suspect the former. It would be cool to be able to add notes to the gauges to record what levels you've paddled them at for future reference.
