Does anyone use an andriod app for tide times? What one?

Would be handy to have one on the phone but cant seem to find any (at least none that are free!)

Suggestions welcome

I just google "irish sailing cobh tide times" from the ohones browser and it brings up a page with different months. Click the month and it downloads a file with the monthly ttides. Very handy as once its downloaded you dont need internet to view it. Theres a good few locations across ireland on the page.

Just downloaded it. It seems grand. Very poor rating tho and has crashed on me a few times already. Will chance it for awhile tho.

I use UK Tides - has lots of Irish locations too so don't let the UK name put you off. Also has sunrise/sunset and moonrise/moonset times, as well as a neat graphic of the tide cycle showing the current time and the tide cycle for the next few days. Downloaded it for free from the play store I think, but it was a while ago, don't know if its still available for free...

I've been using IrishTides, but it's an awful pain cause it only gives the tide times for that day and doesn't give tide times for later in the week. Think I change my app now after reading this.

just looking at the shear amount of irish places on the uk tides app they shoud really rename it somethung more geographical. id say a lot of irish dismiss it on the title alone.

Thats the handy thing about having the file saved. Takes about 90seconds to download 3-4months tides and their on your phone then till you delete them.

Yeah i see what your saying. A bit like having the tide times booklet thrown in the glovebox. I might do both. Really like the look of that uk tides app tho
