AyeTides Customer Service

I have used Aye Tides and the XL version for iPad for several years and with it I never need a hard copy tide/current book. As noted, it does not require internet for use so it works out in the middle of no where although I usually plan routes in advance and save the key locations under favorites for fast retrieval. They iPad version is more friendly with graphs and you can point to any point on the graph to find the time and tide or currrent level. Sunrise, sunset, moonrise and set and moon configuration are all included as well. Just went from Seattle to Skagway AK taking most of the narrow risky passages using this as my primary reference with no issues

I’ve used this app and loved it for years. But the recent update essentially makes it useless on my iPad which is in a case that holds it in Landscape view at my helm. The update takes away all detailed info and ability to switch stations without tilting the iPad into Portrait view! This is not convenient when plugged into power and resting at the help. Please fix!

The power of knowledge allows for humility. My vision is very limited to where I am in a given time. To know that i can share and SHOW what the tides would do in the close (or distant) future is just awesome, specially in graphic mode just by turning my device from horizontal to perpendicular. Too cool to describe it; a wonder to be able to do it. Keep up the good work. May Gob bless all your efforts. Be safe at sea

This app organizes and presents tidal data in a very efficient manor. I love that it let’s you define arbitrary thresholds for different stations — I need to cross a sandbar that is only makeable at over 3ft. After defining a threshold I can see visual and tabular times for safe passage. The developer is very responsive. I recently reported a bug and it was fixed within a few hours.

As a sailor in California and an owner of a remote beach cabin in Alaska, I could not imagine living my life without this app. I also check regularly it for lunar phases and sunrise/sunset times as I travel around to different parts of the country. There are so many uses, but if you live near/participate in water activities I can’t recommend this app enough. I don’t leave home without it!

I live in an area where beaches come and go with the tide. It's great having this program for planning to get the most out of my beach walks. Easy navigation and tilt for a graphical tide chart make planning easy. It has been years since our last review. Ayetides is still unrivaled. It’s our go to tidal app.

We use the app almost daily to see how much beach we’ll have if we want to go for a walk. But when we are on our boat, it’s a necessity. We used to pour through tide books and charts and now we get the same info ( or better) in minutes on our phones. Very accurate!

I tried a bunch of tides apps and most of them are terrible, especially the free ones which are both inaccurate and loaded with intrusive ads. This app constantly updates the tidal database and provides tides and currents at your exact location. Other apps have tidal stations with incorrect coordinates. Try the free ones first but this app is the best.

Works extremely well and updates itself frequently and for many locations. If you hold phone vertically you get data numerically and if you hold phone horizontally you get a cool graph of when the tides will be. You can also look into the future by incrementing to future dates. Best app I own. Jeffsurf.

I am never without this app on my sailboat. It is 5.5 feet deep and sails the notoriously shallow Florida coast of the Gulf of Mexico. “Pushed” updates are fast, and data resides on the phone, so travel away from cell towers and WIFI is not a problem. I wish there was a program this good for my laptop.

Such a great tool. Using an Internet connection you can find nearby buoys. But if you are traveling in remote areas or internationally you can still look up buoys by name and have accurate local data. I love not needing a tide table ever or anywhere.

AyeTides has long been a good tides reference tool. Have been using it for several years. The publisher has diligently evolved it, adding a number of useful shortcuts and display features, most notably month view, while still keeping it simple. Top notch.

I recall anchoring “knowing” I’d have 3’ of water under me at low tide. Well….. it was a minus tide that day and I didn’t. Now I have this on my phone and it’s always with me. You schools have it with you too.

Excellent example of good software design. Simple, elegant, intuitive, and does everything one wants. After using it for several years, I’m happier than ever, and I hope no one ever tries to “improve” it.

What’s not to love about an app that does one thing and does it perfectly. I travel a great deal and have used the app around the world. It never fails. Many thanks to the author and staff!

This application is by far the best tide application available. Superior user interface allows the user to toggle quickly based on location. I use this app daily to navigate the waters of Southeast Alaska and gain access to the tidal flats in front of the Stikine River.

Absolute must have for All navigators. No connectivity needed, quick downloads for updates, never been wrong, brilliant UI. Buy this now.

I’ve been using this app for a long time. However, it no longer works with the latest iOS version.

The app is quick to load and easy to use. It is easy to look at also. Simple, concise and informative.

Gives you everything you need in seconds.

AyeTides is easy to use. I especially like that you can turn it horizontally and see the graphical representation of the tide over time. The screens are not cluttered. Just a great app!

I emailed tech-support at 10 o’clock on a Friday night. They thoroughly and thoughtfully replied within 30 minutes. I am a captain on oceangoing tug/tank barge. I use the app daily and I’m very happy with it.

Great App!! Intuitive…and that is the best part. It’s not cluttered. It’s not complex. It gives me the info I want right up front.

Very good and user friendly application in my IPhone. Validating data to manual calculations using NOAA Tidal Current Tables and downloading NOAA web page data. No issues.

Always works even when globe trotting. If ocean tides affect your daily life, then this apps for you.

Fast and easily understood, draws from stations and buoys. Along Grand Strand in SC with rivers estuaries and ocean, high tide mark can vary 1 hour in six miles. Current data vary helpful for kayak trips. Thanks for a vital tool!

Being a long time beach goer, it’s important to know the tides. I do long distance swimming and this app is perfect for predicting my longer swims.

Easy to find what you need. Accurate and does not need a data connection once installed. Great app.

Love this app! Easy to use and visualize. I use it almost daily (many years) for coastal kayak trips.

Great little app but would be nice if it would show the tidal range at a glance as well as local weather predictions for that area. Other than that, a solid app for fishing.

Been using it for a couple of years. It's simple and easy to use.

Simple easy to use accurate

Using it for years, just buy it. It’s cheap and incredible

I surf fish several days each week in the San Diego area. Always use the Aye Tides site.

I just miss the beautiful wave you used to have on the splash page (ha! That must have been intentional!)

Use this app all the time for boating. Seems to be very accurate.

Nice update - great app overall. I use it every day and only wish it had an Apple Watch component if nothing more than to feed complications.

I absolutely love this app. It’s all you need if you like fishing moving tide!!

Reliable and accurate, simple to read, this app informs my coastal decisions.

App is locked on one site (Hell Gate, NY) and won’t return to home page. Failing me at a critical time.

I use it for duck hunting and salmon fishing on the coast. Timing is everything and this helps you identify patterns other outdoor people only dream of finding.

Use AyeTides regularly and I find it to be indispensable How about a Watch version? The Watch tide apps are just not up to AyeTide standards.

This is a great app! It gives lots of information and is easy to navigate!!

Great app for tide information and also moon data. I use it everytime I go fishing.

Flipping the phone from chart view to graphic view is marvelous.

Been very reliable for the 5 years I’ve been using it!

Use it everyday. Quick & easy.

I've tried others this is the best

Simply the best! Will not go on the water without it!

Fantastic program. I use it almost every day, for work and play. Thanks for making it available. Andrew Noel B C Coast Pilot

The app is useful and has data regularly updated so is the best choice for tide and current info- for me on the West Coast of Canada

Easy to use.

I love this app and use it daily to monitor tide levels now and in the future. Great for planning, easy to use, and very intuitively designed.

Really simple to use and always available. Highly recommend.

I have used AyeTides for 2 or 3 years. It has everything I need in a tide program. It would be useful on an Apple Watch, and I hope they do that.

Perfect fo judging slack in passes with real-time data

Covers off all the obscure bays and passes that aren’t in the official tide tables. It was already excellent and just keeps improving.

This app is so worth the money.

A very comprehensive and easy to use program

I was first introduced to the app in the tidal fiords of Alaska. It saved hours of calculating for the return trip south. It just made entering the Washington and Oregon river bars much safer. We have used it to hike beaches in Australia and Argentina. It is so accurate for such a vast array of locations.

I love this app as it tells me when I have the biggest beach for dog walking and kayaking!

Great program, live on a gulf island where access is controlled by tides so it is essential to know where and when. Be nice to be able to have the basics on my Apple Watch and to also be able to set multiple tide ranges.

A USEFUL TOOL.....5 STARS ++⚓️

All the info is there but the manner in which it is organized and presented is a tad awkward

Love it on my phone. Always know where the tide is. If you’re spending time on the water or on the beach, this is a great app. Easy to read. Informative and free.

All I need before heading out on the Ocean

I love being on the water and never leave with out checking AyeTides first. Very easy to use.

Love this app like the graphics too!

2024-07-24. still the best. not even close. ------- just keeps getting better and better. ---------- i'm pretty sure i've used every tide/current app available now. this is the one for me. well thought out and implemented. very responsive support team will work with you to fix it or make it better. thanks much folks.

I live near the ocean and constantly use this app to gauge good times to go to the beach. Well designed and I really like that it works while offline.

Purchased this to use for tides, moon and sun as I live on the coast and am a photographer. It provides all the info I need but the interface could be a little more refined.It is easy to criticise when the work is done and my comments should not detract from an excellent and useful app at a reasonable price. Great database with every place imaginable and overall clear displays and easy to use. I really like the way the sun and moon cycles are shown graphically on the horizontal display. Some small adjustments as mentioned below would get my 5 stars. - Recommended anyway. 1) The size of the date and time font on the main screen is too small. There is lots of room to have it a little larger as if one scrolls across to the next or previous day the size is good. 2) The icons for the sun and moon are really a little too small too, especially for the moon as the phases are shown, which is really excellent, but are difficult to read.Perhaps put larger icons of these phases on the message that pops up when one touches them. 3) I am often inland where there is no tide data required but I still require sun and moon data. It would be very useful if one could enter long lat and a name of the location and just get this astronomical data without the tides, this would make Aye Tides a killer app for landscape photography. 4) It would be useful to be able to have the option of having the app start in graphic mode with a vertical or horizontal screen as this gives very quick tide info without having to read all the numbers or tilt the ipod to landscape mode for this to appear. 5) It seems that the main data screen should fit easily on the page without being truncated on the bottom giving the need to scroll.

I have been waiting for Mr Tides to be ported to the iPod/iPhone! There are a couple of free tide apps, but they require online access, while Aye Tides has it's own algorithm and is independent of outside support access, making it much more useful in all the remote places boaters go. I had a bit of trouble figuring out how to access the graph view until I went back to the iTunes Store and reread the description of the features. Duh! Turn it sideways! That had not occurred to me. You might want to incorporate that info into the About text.

What a good app is supposed to be. Provides an efficient, instant reference point with easy to access information, making tides and currents a simple dimension of planning. I use it for canoe and paddle board outings, and even trips to the beach with the kids.

Have used this app for years. Love it.

As a professional mariner, Aye Tides has been instrumental to the safety of my vessel!

Great tide and current app. One significant issue...the app will not save "Favorites" (stations) for quick access.

As a professional mariner I find this program accurate and easy to use. It's very handy.

It's my go to for tides and because we live on the water, tides are crucial. Great job on the update guys... much nicer to look at :)

Hands down my most favourite app. I use it on a daily basis for work. We go through some of the fastest currents in the world so being precise is necessary and this app helps out time and time again!

I've been using Aye tides for years now, through all the versions they have. It works easily and has a nice interface. I love turning my iphone sideways to get the graphical view.

Buy this app!

I am a boater and sail the Pacific Northweast, I depend on this app every season and have been for several years now. I don't know what I would do without it. This app has never let me down and is by far the best tide app out there. I highly recommend it!

After trying most of the cheaper tide predictors, i bought this and let me tell you, buy this and don't bother with the rest, this is by far the best. How stupid is you need internet for the others to work.Thank you for the great product, i recomend this to all the kayakers out there :)

Excellent program, use it all the time sailing up the coast of BC as far as Alaska. Accurate and fast, a good app.

I'm surprized that this software is not called iTides. I live near the ocean and have grand kids to entertain. It's always a treat to take them to the beach at low tide and this software fills the bill nicely to help with that. It works well. One nice feature is that I can run it for dates in the future looking for especuially low tides during the daylight hours. If I hold my iPod upright I get information on sunrise and sunset as well as high and low tides. If I lay it on its side I get a graphical chart of high and low tides. It's just great. It does not do away with the need for tide and current tables for the mariner but it is perfect for the grampas, grammas, and their grand kids exploring the coast line. Very compact. A tide table book can't easily fit in a coat pocket, an iPod or iPhone can.

Easier to use than all the guides and electronicson our boat..love it!

I am disappointed after paying $10 for this software. Other, free software enables the user to show graphical representations over a 24-hour period, calculate current and show times of maximum and minimum tides. Had I been aware of these limitations I would not have spent the money.

This is by far the best tides application out there! Thank you very much for your work in putting this together - well worth the money!

I have been very happy with this app, and it’s simplicity of use. Until yesterday. Now I can’t trust it, and need to find a new ride app. The app showed a 2 foot tide, with little change for many hours. When I returned to the dinghy an hour later, it was high and dry on the sand. A friend using a different tide app, said it was a -0.5 foot tide, which fit what I saw. I double checked the date, time, location of the tide station - all was correct. I had to hire a couple of locals to help me get the dinghy to the water before dark.

I was told by people that this was the best tides and currents app for sailing. It’s fine, but it is more expensive than others that do the same thing with the same data. It is a bit clunky to use as compared others, even free apps. I wish one of these would shod the currents on a chart as arrows like Navionics does.

Was a great app now it doesn’t open just crashes on iPhones
