### 4/5 — Brill app by family sharing does not work

*2025-08-15*

I had a notification that my subscription could now be shared with family. When I go on my wife’s phone and subscribe, a message tells me that it will be free, but then tells me to subscribe again. Round and round. Tried uninstalling/installing and lost favourites - now wishing I had just not bothered!

### 1/5 — Hello there is a place called Norfolk

*2025-08-08*

Tried to find places along the coast could only find Hunstanton and Cromer. There are lots of popular beaches, naming one Brancaster that need accurate tide times as they are blocked off when the tide comes in. Will go back to searching on the internet.

### 5/5 — accurate

*2025-05-17, version 8.3*

hi great app not to many ads

### 4/5 — Ok but some annoying interface stuff

*2024-09-19, version 8.3*

Generally speaking this seems to work ok. I looked at a few different apps and ended up using this one. However there’s some elements that seem pointless: there is a slider on the tidal graphic wave that moves and changes the time code, but when you let go of it it snaps back to 11.58 ish. I try to click on the time to see if I can change it. But no I can’t. Not sure why this is. It would be good if the time slider stayed where you put it, that way I could see where the tide is at 6pm every day for example. Also if I’m looking at the tide in a certain location, then press the location button at the bottom of the screen, one might imagine you could change location… but no it just shows the location you are currently viewing and no others. Seems to be a pointless button then. It would be great to have a date set and then change location without the date defaulting back to today. 
So like I said. It works, but there could be a lot better functionality added with some quite simple changes.

### 5/5 — Useful

*2024-06-29*

This is a useful tool to have to hand.

### 1/5 — Poor.

*2024-03-10, version 8.2*

Main Shipping channel Milfordhaven not available to save on Apple Watch Ultra 2.

### 1/5 — Watch complication DOES NOT WORK

*2023-12-28*

It seems it’s actually a static snapshot, despite appearing to be a live tidal height. It would be better if the complication just displayed the app icon!!

The app itself on the watch is also very disappointing. For example, on the graph view the heights shown don’t match the curve - the turning points are not even at the times LW and HW are shown. I suspect the curve displayed is arbitrary, not in fact a plot of the predictions. But I’m not investing the time to find out. 

Unsubscribed.

### 1/5 — Watch complication doesn’t work

*2023-11-19, version 8.2*

I used to use the watch complication daily but it can no longer find it unfortunately

### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY… if…

*2023-11-01*

Do not buy if you need access to any tide data prior to one week ago. I used this app for my job to search for previous tide times more than a week ago but now the developers have updated the app limiting many options including this one. Best bet is to go with another app developer. It was good, now it’s not.

### 1/5 — A con.

*2023-10-06, version 8.1.3*

Looks very nice until you see that you can only view the current day. Hit the next day advance and get a subscription page with either you purchase or go back. F******g useless.
