Tidal Stream App

[Simon 420]

Can anyone recommend an App to give tidal stream information (bearing and speed) on an hourly basis every day please?

 

[Poignard]

I use the Navionics app on a tablet and that gives that sort of information, and a lot more.

2nd Navionics - excellent on IPad and phone

I like Absolute Tides. It doesn't give bearing and rate directly but it shows the appropriate diagram of the Tidal Stream Atlas for anywhere round UK and for any date/time. Importantly for me, it doesn't need a mobile signal to work.

Not an app, but you could also download THESE Tide Stream charts to your phone / tablet.

Boatie does it on IOS

Another vote for Absolute Tides, it gives the inshore waters forecast too. The app is free but the tidal info is an in app purchase that costs about £3 per year

But Boatie needs a phone signal to work, doesn't it?

Also Reeds 2020 Almanac gives all tidal streams , and times of the UK Very useful IMHO

+1 that's what I use although on mine it does show the rate.

Minor detail but can be a problem in some places it’s not perfect but it is still an extremely useful app

On the tidal heights harmonic curve in the bottom right hand side there are arrows which give you a tidal stream atlas with the direction and rate.

Agree but I was replying to JimC who was saying there was no tidal steam bearing. I only see a direction arrow.

I use the Imray tidal app which like others gives detailed free info for the next 24hrs and with the in app purchase of a few quid you can get the Admiralty Tidal Stream Atlases that show for a given time.

Nice simple interface.
