About Tide Now WA, Washington Tides, Sun and Moon Times

see http://tide-now.lfreytag.com/
Tide Now WA is a tide calculator for Washington State. It displays a tide graph, daily tide table, present tide status, and daylight/sun/moon timing. It supports 96 locations in Washington State.

Off Line Operation- app does not use the internet, it works by calculation.

Predictions are quick the app is simple to use. Use swipe gestures for the next and prior day tides. There are no ads and app cannot access phone features.

User Options

Controls for the user are provided by three action bar icons and five items in the settings menu. The action bar controls are Set Location, Set Date, and Refresh. The settings controls are Add Station to Favorites, GMap Station (internet), Change Color Scheme, Sun and Moon Info, and About Gestures.

Phone or Tablet

Most phones and tablets are supported. Depending on the nature of your android device, the landscape or portrait mode display may present a more useful size.

Accurate Predictions

This app was written using well-known tidal prediction algorithms and publicly available location data. It can be expected to match very closely to federally-published tide tables. It uses the "Harmonic Prediction of Tides" methodology in long use for tide elevation predictions.

Designed for On The Spot Use

The tidal status presentation gives an immediate snapshot of the tide situation, more useful than just a standard list of highs and lows. The display can be refreshed at any time to update this status. This app is designed for use while actively out and about along the waterfront. It uses large text and the white on black text choice is easily read on the bright sun.

200 Year Calendar

In addition to today's tides, a date picker is available to choose any date from 1901 to 2100. The app does not have to be refreshed on the new year.

Next Day, Prior Day Swipes

Gestures are supported to go to "next day" and "past day" to step day by day through a range of dates. These operate like turning the page of a book. You can quickly swipe through a range of dates to look for good clam digging days.

Favorites

The selected station can be added to a set of eight favorites. These can be accessed by a down-swipe.

Adjustable Colors

There are five color schemes, good for situations ranging from bright sun to night use. Try each one out depending in which conditions you use the app you can find one that works best.

Graph, rate of tide change, highs and lows, sun/moon position in just one screen. Thank you sir! Awesome app. I would pay you if there was a way to.

Super simple and useful for my job. The only addition that would be personally helpful would be a search for the specific time the tide will be at a certain point. Great app!

Y70%
by Y####:

Almost perfect app. An addition I'd like see is to know what time a specific water level would be. Like when is the tide at 9' ?(Which happens to be the best time to launch my boat).

Absolutely perfect. I use this to plan my daily stand up paddleboard sessions because low tide = long walk carrying a 14ft board. THANK YOU!!

Nice, simple tide prediction. Does everything to want from a ride prediction app and nothing you don't. Nice additions would be a list of nearest stations (from gps) and tidal current predictions. Thanks!

This would be one of my favorite and probably my most used app... But it doesn't have my port tides... Nahcotta, on the willapa bay, port of the peninsula?? *** Thank you . I'm sorry, I just assumed that was for the ocean not the bay. This app is great now! And totally the one I use the most! I love that it doesn't need the internet and how simple it is! More apps should be like this one! Perfect!

When tide chart displays, some times it will have mountain state time and sometimes it is pacific coast time and is very confusing. Help establishing constant zone and would rate the app 5 stars

One of the best tidal apps. out there! The page layout is great having both tidal prediction AND tidal graphs. Having a favorites page works well but if you could add an interactive map I would be more than happy to pay for it! If you went one step further and added current predictions it would be the perfect app. for everyone!!!
