Great app, i have tidetool for the palm which has a few other features :

option for different units, m, ft, inches
rise and set for sun - your gray scale ?
moon phases - 1st, full, last, new
currents, not for all locations

I also have RiseSet which gives major astronomical events such as elipses of sun/moon as well as rise/set for sun/moon. Gives the different civil, nautical & astronomical values for rise/set of sun. Gives current altide & azimuth in degrees of sun & moon.

Cool! Another astronomy-ish app for Maemo! Too bad I live in the center of the continent, distant from any seawater...

Mike, can you tell me if this will work on the N900?

Yes it will, and I've added some location support to it. Hopefully I can get it uploaded soon!

Awesome app. Is there a way to get the exact measurement for a high or low tide? Or is there only the visual graph? Also, is there aan option for feet instead of meters?

This looks quite useful. But I cannot find any French locations. I found a lot of Germany and Netherlands. Could we get some locations of France, please?
