Anyone know of an app where you tap a location on a chart and have it calculate tides for that location? Most of what I’ve seen limit you to NOAA tide locations, then you have to make an educated guess about the location you want.
I have the navionics app on mine and it has the tides on it. You just have to look for the T on the map and most are in creek mouths and near inlets. It lets you go to any date you want. I have also used it as a backup to my GPS. Costs$10 though,but its worth it IMHO.
The Sea Tow app allows you to select your desired station from a map when you click on the small map icon while viewing tides.
I will admit that the iphone version of our app works a lot better than the droid (there are so many different platforms for the android operating system), but we are making a significant investment to improve the droid version and add some new features… so stay tuned and register for our quarterly newsletter.
