Primetide is a sea fishing planner for shore, kayak and boat anglers. It puts the tide, weather, swell and light for any mark on one scrolling timeline, so you can see at a glance what's happening and when it lines up.
It describes the conditions and leaves the decision to you. There are no bite scores, solunar tables or moon-phase predictions, though the planner shows each day's moon phase if you like to follow it.
Built by Jon, a South Wales sea angler tired of switching between apps for the tide, wind, weather, sun and moon.

What anglers use it for
• Planning a session: see when the flood, dusk and a gentle wind come together
• Planning months ahead: find the days your tide and light line up before booking time off or a charter
• Fishing abroad: conditions on any coast, and the fish in season where Primetide covers species
• Targeting a species: choose it, and the timeline shows its prime time

The timeline
• The real sky above the tide: day, night, civil twilight around sunrise and sunset, and stars after dark
• Forecast cloud, from light white to heavy, as it builds and clears
• The moon from moonrise to moonset, in full screen and on tablets
• High and low water times and heights, from the nearest named tide station
• Each hour under the tide coloured Settled, Mixed or Rough, set to your comfort level
• Rows for rain, temperature, wind and gusts, and swell with its period

Wind against tide, on US coasts
• Near a tide flow station, a Tide row shows which way the tide runs and how fast
• When the wind blows against the tide, the sea gets rougher. Primetide boxes those hours: amber when it's lumpy, red when it's steep
• It uses the wind, gusts included, and the tide's speed, so a gentle wind or slack tide draws no box

The planner
• Tell Primetide once when you fish, such as weekends only, weekday evenings or first light before work
• Add the state of tide or hours around high or low water, the light and the size of tide you like
• Months ahead, it shows how much of your window each day fills (whole, most or part) and lists your Closest matches
• Inside the forecast, each match also shows Settled, Mixed or Rough

A pocket guide to the fish
• Species guidance for more than 500 fish across 60 countries and territories in Europe, North America, the Caribbean, Africa, Australia and New Zealand
• What's in season at your mark, and what's at its best
• Search by common, scientific or local name: bass finds lubina, loup and spigola
• Where to catch it: every area a fish is recorded in, month by month
• Also called (its other names), usual sizes, gear, methods and baits
• Shore and boat filters, and My species for the fish you star
• Handy for Spain, Portugal, Greece, Norway, Florida, the Caribbean, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and more

Marks and sharing
• Find a mark by place, coordinates or your location, or drop a pin on a satellite map, offshore too
• Import marks from other apps and back them up as GPX
• Share a day or up to three days as a picture, with the mark's name hidden if you like
• Full tablet layouts too

Private by design
No account, no social feed, no advertising ID. Your marks are saved on your phone, and location is used only when you ask.

Good to know
Conditions work on any coast. Species guidance covers 60 countries and territories, listed in the app. It does not say whether it is safe to go, and it is not for navigation. Check your national marine forecast and local rules.
