Tide table on vertical 2

@isazi the best Option would be to make a actual poi in the suunto map in the App and from this point you will get the nearest Tide Infos. This Automatic Location is not good sometines!

I continue to have issues as well with the tide widget. I was on the west coast of Scotland beside the sea near Fort William at the start of the week and the widget started working again but still only gave my location as Scotland. I’m back on the east coast of Scotland again and the widget is not working. I am standing right beside the sea as I type this.

It does not work for me either, I tried also the air plane mode, reset the app, restart the watch. I am 300m from the sea and it does not work.After last update also battery status is doing strange things. I was snorcheling and received 5% battery remaining warning. After ending sportmode the status was 10%
I recharged to 99%.
I was cycling for 1,5h and went swimming for 30min, it dropped to 90%, which is more than usual. After restart (as above) it changed to 93%.

@matus69 are you also in Scotland?
-
just to make sure:
You all have location permission for the app?
You have tapped the update now button in the widget
and you have synced the watch with SA afterwards? -
Yes. To all these questions. Thanks

@isazi No, Istria

Also yes to all. Still just giving location as ‘Scotland’ I’m actually not that far from Fort William mentioned earlier.
I’ve just compared it with local tide tables and it’s about 40 minutes and 0.3m wrong on the low tide forecast for Mallaig which is just up the coast. Not big errors but potentially critical for threading a sea kayak through various local channels.
For example - close to me there is an island (Eilean Ighe for those who know the area) separated from the mainland by a narrow channel. I know I can paddle through this when the height of the tide at Mallaig is 3.5m. If I get this wrong then it’s normally straightforward to go round the outside of the island. But if the weather is severe (or unexpectedly deteriorates) timing for the channel to avoid the conditions is important. Now of course I can use other resources to plan this but it’s a shame if the watch can’t give me that information. An example would be a leisurely long day, no weather or tidal stream issues, arriving nearby at an unplanned time and just deciding the best route back by making a quick check to see if the channel is open or not. -
Tide widget started working again today. Watch hasn’t left the house in the last 48 hours so I’m not sure what has changed. Perhaps Suunto has been working behind the scenes to fix it?
Still not sure where they are getting their tide data from as it differs a bit from the tide tables of both my nearest ports. High and low tide times are out by between 10 and roughly 20 minutes on the widget. Still gives my location as Scotland, UK.

That’s the tide widget not working again in my location. After its update on Sunday it has not updated any data since then.
