Where is the Tide Widget?
-
The manual and specs says about the Tide Widget:
"Tide
The tide widget provides information about the current tide state. It shows the tide height (m), upcoming high and low tides with height and time, wave height, moon phase, and a 24-hour forecast."
But mine does not have a Widget called Tide!
(Some of the info is under Weather, but not all)** A Tide Widget with a hour by hour Tide Table, just like in the Weather Widget for Weather will be very nice…
Just data from the the standard tide table base on location - and even better with an extra column with the forecast data too…
This data will make drift diving both more fun and safe… -
@Niels-Søren-Bøgh We wait for all other models for a tide App, too. In the Update today there is NO tide app
-
@Niels-Søren-Bøgh excellent catch.
When the tide widget is actually released, I hope it can download data for upcoming 3-5 days. Some remote SCUBA locations don’t have wifi connectivity, so it will be important to have the tide widget not go blank without Wifi. Instead the widget should fall back to 3-5 days offline cached data.

@GiPFELKiND there is no indication, that a tide widget is coming to any model that is not Nautic or Ocean.
-
There is basically 3 types of Tides information:
-
Simple standard calculated table - here you typical have a whole year in advance
-
A Weather corrected Tides-forecast where 1) is corrected from weather forecast about wind etc. Here you typicality have 1-3 days in advance.
Nautic could have both: 1) as Widget… 2) as a part of the weather forecast.
