About

This app provides you with high and low tides at your GPS position. You can now also try the new "Tidal Graph" at https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/39248f2e-9f6b-4065-b283-a895520ef853! The data is retrieved from World Tides (https://www.worldtides.info). Before you can use the app you need to register as a developer (at https://www.worldtides.info/register) and set your API key in the High Tides settings in Garmin Connect Mobile or Garmin Express. Instructions for setting your World Tides API key: - Open "Garmin Connect Mobile" on your mobile device - Click on "More" (on iPhone 3 dots in lower right corner) which opens the full menu - Choose "Garmin Devices" and select your watch - Select "Connect IQ Apps" - Now go to "Widgets" - If installed you should be able to see and select the "High Tides" widget - Finally you select "Settings" where you can enter your World Tides API key
