eTide HDF: Comprehensive Tide Tracking and Offline Functionality

Discover the ultimate tool for tide enthusiasts with eTide HDF, an app and widget suite designed to provide detailed tide charts for locations around the globe. Whether you're planning a fishing trip, a boat outing, or just curious about local tide patterns, eTide HDF offers tide times for over 10,000 tidal stations across the US, UK, Canada, and beyond, with forecasts extending for several months.

One of the standout features of eTide HDF is its ability to store the last 50 tide charts offline, ensuring you have access to crucial data even without an internet connection. This feature is perfect for those venturing into areas with limited connectivity.

The app's widgets are highly customizable, offering resizable options from 1x1 to 5x5. You can view them as either charts or tables, and they automatically update to reflect the current day's tide data. Importantly, the tide station data used in these widgets remains accessible offline, adding to the app's utility.

Stay connected with your surroundings as eTide HDF follows your current location, providing you with tides near me information effortlessly. The tide graph is interactive; you can stretch and squeeze it using gestures and swipe left or right to see ocean tide predictions with minute accuracy for upcoming days.

A unique feature of eTide HDF is the adjustable horizontal line on the tide graph. This line intersects with the tide curve to show the ideal time for launching and retrieving your boat. By moving this line up and down, you can set the desired depth, and the app will remember this setting for each port.

eTide HDF supports multiple time formats, including local, telephone, and GMT time, and offers tide height measurements in feet, inches, meters, and centimeters. Additionally, a distance measurement tool allows you to calculate distances between two points in miles, kilometers, and nautical miles.

Customization is at the core of eTide HDF. Both the app and widgets allow for changes in colors and transparency of charts and tables. Each station on the widgets can be distinguished by its own color, and the app supports both day and night themes. You can also adjust the size of the font to enhance readability or fit more data on the screen.

The app also provides valuable information on sunrise, sunset, moonrise, and moonset times, displayed in both table and diagram formats. These can be toggled on or off as per your preference. Hovering over a station on the map will display a tooltip with detailed data.

Sharing is made easy with eTide HDF; you can save or share both tables and graphs via email or messenger with your contacts.

Please note, while eTide HDF offers comprehensive tide data, it should not be used for navigation purposes as it is not intended for such use.
