Tideboard

In development

Tideboard is a planned iPhone app for checking tides. It puts tide charts and a proper tide table in one place, so you can see what the water is doing before you head out.

Who it's for

For people who plan their day around the water. Anglers timing a session around a moving tide. Kayakers checking when the water turns. Beach walkers and shore photographers who want low tide at the right hour. Boat owners who like to know what the day looks like before they leave the dock.

Why

Tide information is often buried in cluttered pages or hard-to-read tables. Tideboard is being built to make the same information plain: a graph you can read in a second and a table you can trust for planning. It is still in development, so the details are being worked out carefully rather than rushed.

What it will do

  • Clean tide graphs Highs and lows are drawn as graphs, so the shape of the day is easy to read at a glance.
  • Tide table A proper table lists the tides for the days ahead, so you can plan further out than today.
  • Built for the shore Made for fishing, kayaking, beach walks, and photography at low tide.
  • Quick to check The point is to answer one question fast: what is the tide doing, and when.
