Tides and Swim? Plouf Check! is the essential app for your beach trips, combining the two most important coastal insights: tide times and water quality. Whether you are a surfer, a shore angler, or a parent wanting a safe swim, get clear scientific data, completely offline and with zero personal data collection. ULTRA-PRECISE TIDES EVERYWHERE - Local precision: Unlike classic apps limited to major ports, Plouf Check! gives you the tide at any point on the coast thanks to high-resolution data from Ifremer. - 100% Offline: Calculations are performed directly on your phone via our custom engine. No network connection is required. - Advanced indicators: Check the tidal coefficient (Channel/Atlantic coast) and the water level variation speed in m/h. WATER QUALITY AND SWIMMING - Double health assessment: Do not rely on a single indicator anymore. The app displays the official European rating (ARS) AND the strict ranking from the Eau et Rivieres de Bretagne (ERB) association for full transparency on pollution. - Your favorite beaches: The interface focuses on your actual swimming spots (supervised beaches), not distant tide gauges. DESIGNED FOR THE OUTDOORS - Bright sun theme: Read your charts perfectly even in full sunlight on the foreshore thanks to our high luminance mode. - Multilingual: Available in 7 languages (French, English, Spanish, German, Italian, Chinese, Russian). 100% ETHICAL - Zero data collection: Your geolocation never leaves your device. - 100% Free: No ads, no in-app purchases, no registration. Note: The provided predictions concern the astronomical tide only and do not include weather. The app is not a regulatory nautical document. Tide data: Ifremer / PREVIMER (CC BY 4.0) and Shom (Licence Ouverte). Water quality data: Ministere de la Sante / SISE-Eaux (Licence Ouverte) / Methode La Belle Plage. ## Version history (last 5 releases) ### 1.4 — 2026-08-26 Improvements to the mapping system Water test history now reads season by season ### 1.3 — 2026-08-23 The week scrolls on and on, the month opens on today. • Week view — no more pages to flip: one list that grows as you scroll, up to a year ahead. The week's heading stays at the top and follows along. • Month view — it opens on today, halfway down, instead of the first of the month. Past days step back; the month and its arrows stay in place. • Fixes — a week straddling two months finally names both, and today is worked out in the beach's time zone, not the phone's. Still no account, no adverts and no trackers. ### 1.2 — 2026-08-22 Siri answers, even with no network. • Siri — “Hey Siri, next tide in Plouf Check”, “Can I swim?”, “How warm is the water?”. Ten shortcuts, also available in Spotlight and in the Shortcuts app. Everything is worked out on the device: the answer comes even in airplane mode. • The closest beach, by voice — Siri finds it and gives you its score and its tide. Your location answers the question and is never stored. • Your list is really yours — on first launch the app no longer adds four demo beaches. It offers to search for one, or to find the closest. • Water and air temperature in every widget, not just in “Water & weather”. • Two scores, two names — the “Plouf Check score” and the official classification no longer blur together, each with the period it covers. • Fixes — the map no longer vanishes when you zoom into an area with no beach, its legend finally explains the figure under the pin, and the next tide gets its coefficient back. Still no account, no adverts and no trackers. ### 1.1 — 2026-08-20 Apple Watch, widgets and tide alerts. • Apple Watch app — water height, today's tides, the week ahead and water quality, on your wrist. Tides are worked out on the watch: they keep working with no network, even away from your phone. • Four complications — the tide on your watch face, as a ring, a corner, a line or a rectangle. • iPhone widgets — on the Home Screen and the Lock Screen, with the bathing score. • Tide alerts — a notification thirty minutes before each high tide, for the beaches you follow. Everything is worked out on the device: nothing is sent. • Beaches with no tide — the Mediterranean, Corsica and the overseas territories now show the same water information as everywhere else. Still no account, no adverts and no trackers. ### 1.0 — 2026-08-19 No release notes. ## More apps by Web Solutis - [Le Pendu en Français](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/le-pendu-en-francais/id1057899642) - [Realm Of Conquerors](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/realm-of-conquerors/id1404961825) All apps by Web Solutis: https://appshunter.io/developer/496851618 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
