About

No Support via review system. For questions, please use button "Contact Developer". No Support via review system. For questions, please use button "App Support". I'm a private developer and I'm sharing apps/datafiels/widget I developed for my own usage - for free (!!!) to the community. My rewards are if you are happy with my apps/datafiels/widgets and leaving a five star review. If you are not happy or if there are issues, please contact me via "App Support". I'm NOT Stormglass.io !!!! Free tide widget to get worldwide tide data for current location. Requires a registration (free!) at https://dashboard.stormglass.io/register API key (shown in the end of the registration process) to be copied to app preferences in Garmin Connect IQ: select "my device" bottom right - "My Apps" (or Widgets) - "AK Tides" - "Settings", paste API key to appropriate field. Attention: API key consists of 73 digits (!!!), in total 10 blocks with 4 to 12 digits. Please, copy whole key. Example: 11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555-66666666-7777-8888-9999-000000000000 AK Tides is caching some days, it should be sufficient to get free API key. Data powered by stormglass.io Can be used as complication publisher, e.g. for AK Weather Watch For watchface developers: If you want to integrate AK Tides current tide data, please use complication short "TIDES". For details please contact developer Keep in mind, stormglass uses a tide station next to your location (might be hundrets of kilometers away). What station is taken is shown in the top. Times in the bottom are sunrise and sunset at you current location. Upper and lower value on y-axis are max and min level during next week. Blue value in the middle is current level. To start new GPS fix, please push 'start' while AK Tides is running. If Widget shows "Current Location" or "Err-200": a) double check API key, entered in Garmin Connect / Garmin Express / Garmin IQ App Store (yes, there should be 64 digits and 9 dashes!!!). b) make sure that watch has active bluetooth connection to mobile phone c) please go outdoor, start an activity and wait until GPS fix is done (you should have your mobile with you) and restart AK Tide It seem to be, for Noth Sea Stormglass is delivering inaccurate tide data. Sorry if so, but I'm not Stormglass.
