Tides App for iPad & iPhone

[oceanfroggie]

I've looking for a half decent Tide app for iPad and iPhone. Found this one Tides Planner 11. It has all the primary and many secondary tidal ports in Europe as well as 5000 around the world. It uses UKHO data and Imray seem to be the app sponsor. Costs only €3.99 and stores data on iPad so no Internet connection needed when in use.

You can set up your own favourites from their database of 5000

Tidal curve with dates for springs and neaps

7 day read ahead, with optional full year for €2.99

Tidal stream atlas, you can choose time and date for passage planning

Not a bad little app for the money. There is a limited free edition for trial also.

Very nice but is it any good on Derg

Ah but ze Frog spends half it's milage on the W, SW and S coast.

Ps: Derg does actually experience storm surge tides of about 1 foot

Only pulling you leg.

I read your cruise from Limerick to Dun Laoighaire and back on the Irish forum a while back

Sorry just to dwift slightly

+1 it's a very good app indeed.

Thanks for the Heads up, that looks like a good App. On the subject of Apps - NOAA do one for the usual ocean buoys. Can be useful.

Agree it looks good, also the Cobh tidal variation is very similar to our river locally.

How about this strange curve with double HW per cycle. Courtown on east coast iPhone.
