eTide HDF is your ultimate tides app and widget, providing comprehensive tide charts for locations around the world. With tide times available for over 10,000 tidal stations across the US, UK, Canada, and beyond, the app offers forecasts for several months in advance, ensuring you're always prepared for your next water-based adventure.
One of the standout features of eTide HDF is its ability to store the last 50 tide charts offline. This means you can access vital tide information even without an internet connection, making it perfect for remote locations or when you're out at sea.
The app's resizable widgets, ranging from 1x1 to 5x5, offer flexibility in how you view your data. Whether you prefer a chart or a table, these widgets update automatically to reflect the current day's tides. Plus, all the tide station data used in the widget is available offline, adding to the app's convenience.
With eTide HDF, tracking tides near me is effortless. The app follows your current location, ensuring you have the most relevant tide information at your fingertips. The tide graph itself is highly interactive; you can swipe left and right to view ocean tides predictions with minute accuracy for the coming days.
For those who enjoy boating, a unique feature allows you to assess the time needed to launch and retrieve your boat. A horizontal line on the graph intersects with the tide curve, indicating the appropriate timing. You can move this line up and down to adjust the depth you're interested in, and the app will remember your preferred depth for each port.
eTide HDF supports a variety of time formats, including local, telephone, and GMT time. Additionally, tide heights are available in feet, inches, meters, and centimeters, catering to users worldwide. The app also includes a distance measurement tool that calculates the distance between two points in miles, kilometers, and nautical miles.
Customization is at the heart of eTide HDF. Both the app and widgets allow you to change the colors and transparency of charts and tables. Each station can be displayed with its own color, and the app supports both day and night themes. You can also adjust the size of the font to make data easier to read or to fit more information on the screen.
For those interested in celestial events, eTide HDF provides times for sunrise, sunset, moonrise, and moonset, which you can view in a table or diagram and turn on or off as needed. A handy tooltip feature displays data for each station directly on the map when you hover over it.
Sharing is made easy with eTide HDF. You can save or share both tables and graphs via email or messenger, making it simple to keep your friends and colleagues updated.
Please note that while eTide HDF provides valuable tide data, it should not be used for navigational purposes on voyages.
