Get notified when the tide is where you want it
Set alerts for whatever tide level is important to you, and get notified a day ahead of the event, giving you enough time to plan the next outing.
For iPhone and iPad in the United States. Mac app coming soon.
Tides at a glance.
Plan beach walks, tide pools, photo stops, and family days by the coast with tide charts, widgets, and local alerts for the water level you need.
The quick check before you head out.
Tidecast is built around one practical question: is the tide right for the plan? It keeps the current height, next high or low tide, tidepooling windows, and the water level you care about close together.
- Pick a nearby tide location. Use location, choose from the map, or keep saved favorites.
- Watch the level that matters. Turn on Tidepooling Mode or add your own low-tide line for walks, sandbars, launches, and photo spots.
- Check the coast around the tide. See wind, waves, water temperature, and marine or coastal alert context before leaving.
Plain tide information, kept visual.
Current and future conditions at your fingertips.
Wind, waves, water temperature, air temperature, and active marine alerts all provide much needed context to help you to make that go/no go decision before heading to the beach. Just remember, the weather can change rapidly and to keep an eye on it as you explore.
Glanceable widgets on your home screen for a quick look
Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets keep the latest tide height, next tide, and small chart visible without opening the app.
Public, trusted tide and weather data sources
Tidecast uses trusted public tide and weather data, including NOAA tide predictions, National Weather Service alerts and forecasts, and nearby aviation METARs. Remember, Tidecast is for planning and can't make any promises about the weather or ocean.
