About Kayak Water Widget
This widget is designed for kayakers to determine local (and surrounding) water levels of popular rivers. It can be added to the home screen as a 1x1 or 1x2 widget, in the 1x1 mode it will just show the top 6 entries, which are the most local to Louisville.
New version has a much improved user interface. Allows you to add new gauges by searching a list of all USGS gauges. Displays weather local to the gauge. Provides CFS, gauge height, and water temperature on gauges where data is available. Data is retained when you leave all cell service areas.

Very basic but does the job. Please allow it to put decimal values in the the high and low cut offs.

Suggest adding the ability to rearrange your river list.

Great info and presentation on river conditions. As a non expert, I'd like more guidance adding rivers and stations beyond the default.

No frills. The info you need is right at your fingertips. I wish all apps were as no-nonsense and had as much utility!

No instruction. Can't access list of gauges.

It comes with some preloaded rivers, but it's customizable to you by adding rivers by gauge ID and the water levels by cfs or fps you'd feel are appropriate. The only thing you have to do is locate the gauge ID through the USGS streamflow lists first on their website.

Great app! Just the info I need, and I like that you can set your own personal cutoffs for levels. Only thing I would add would be the ability to reorder the list.

Have to load your own gauges by number, and fill in all your own info, so info is similar to aw in the end:) Only thing I'd change is to make searching for gauges by location, it'd be a definite 5 star then:)

Incredibly useful App, I was getting tired of pulling up the USGS data on my own.

I use this app daily to check flows. It's great for at a glance info. Very easy to add more rivers. Only 2 complaints: you can't put decimals in the high/low cutoffs when using stages (though it shows stage to 2 decimals) and less of an issue but it would be nice to reorder your rivers.
