Navionics Times

[bendyone]

Using Navionics on the mobile are the times shown for tides local time or BST or GMT?
Also if you enable Facebook what information does it post?

I believe they are your phone time/local time if you have it set up correctly (i.e. the right time zone and DST set)

BST on my phone. It defaults to the current time so you can see what it thinks the current time to be sure. As far as I can tell there's no other indication.

Also if you enable Facebook what information does it post?

You can upload tracks and routes to facebook. (It creates a link to a google maps.) I've only seen it work once though. As far as I can tell it only creates facebook posts at your request.

I have navionics on my motorola defy android phone.

I think this photo will show it better

Taken a photo of the screen.

At first the large numbers on the right give actual local time, this is where the vertical line is on the graph. (the photo was taken at 08.45 BST)

By moving the tide graph from side to side the circular target on the centre of the screen follows the top of the tide graph and the time display (still in local time) can be changed to select tide times. The tide heights are shown in the left top box.

I have moved the graph alone to show that today high water will be 11.31 BST ie 10.31 GMT

There are very (in very small lettering) times and tide heights above and below the tidal graph. Those show the time and predicted depths at high and low water in GMT.

The next lines down (4,8,12 etc) and the next two time scales (daylight/moon phases) are all in BST.

When I look at a tide graph then local time (Summer time) is shown in large letters on the top right side of the screen and GMT (UCT) is shown on several places along the tide graph in much smaller letters.

Mine is Version 5.3.1 only shows the time, I think it is based on the device time but would like to be sure.

Slight thread drift. I have the European (So not the UK and Holland) but can still get local tide info and display for anywhere in the Uk.

I would like to say that ''not a lot of people know that'', but I expect you all mostly do!

It is version 2.0

Just had an email back from Navionics The times displayed are based on the time setting of the device.
