Frequently asked

My tide alerts aren't arriving

First, make sure notifications are enabled for Tidekeeper in iOS Settings → Notifications → Tidekeeper. Alerts are scheduled on-device and fire even when the app is closed and offline — but if notifications were ever declined, iOS won't deliver them until you turn them back on. Note that removing or unfavoriting a station also turns off its alerts.

Does it really work offline?

Yes. Every prediction is computed on your device from official NOAA harmonic data bundled inside the app. There's no network request, no server, and no account — it works in a cove, on the water, or in airplane mode.

Where does the data come from?

From NOAA CO-OPS published harmonic constants (public domain), referenced to Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW), the standard US chart datum. Predictions closely match NOAA's official tables for planning purposes.

Which stations are included?

1,200+ US reference (harmonic) tide stations across the coasts, Gulf, Alaska, Hawaii, and territories. Want one that's missing? Email us and we'll look at adding it.

What's in Tidekeeper Pro?

Unlimited favorite stations, alerts on as many stations as you like, and the extended forecast — a single one-time purchase, no subscription. Already bought it? Use Settings → Restore Purchase on a new device.

Is this safe for navigation?

No. Tidekeeper is for planning and recreation. Don't use it as your sole tool for navigation or life-safety decisions — consult official sources and local conditions.
