Best iPhone Tide and Current App

Although I've written before rather making fun of iPhone apps that might distract sailors from the sailing experience (such as holding up your iPhone to measure wind speed by the roar in the microphone), I've found that one of my favorite apps is tide and current tables. While you should still keep a paper tide table on your boat for backup when sailing in areas where water depth matters, a tide app is a great, easy way to plan ahead and stay informed when underway. Even better, some tide apps include currents for river harbors and tidal flow areas. Read this review to discover the best of the almost dozen tide apps now available.
