Thames Widgets

The current conditions of the non-tidal River Thames (as published by the Environment Agency) are critical to the safe enjoyment of any river-related leisure activity. Red boards indicate dangerous conditions for which all craft should seek safe moorings, yellow boards indicate conditions that are dangerous for unpowered craft (which should seek safe moorings) and difficult for powered craft (who are recommended to seek safe moorings). Green boards indicate safe conditions for all craft.
Thames Widgets puts one or more iOS widgets on your Today screen (iPad, iPhone, iPod) or any screen (iPhone. iPod). Each widget shows, in real time, the condition for the selected stretch as well as the conditions for the immediate upstream and downstream stretches (for example, selecting Marsh Lock stretch shows the condition for the Marsh to Hambleden stretch preceded by Shiplake to Marsh stretch and followed by Hambleden to Hurley stretch.
You can put multiple widget on one or more pages (iPhone, iPod) or the Today screen (all devices); as with any iOS widgets, Thames Widgets can be stacked to optimise screen usage and can easily be changed or updated to match progress up or down the river.
When first added each Thames Widget is set to centre on Marsh stretch but can easily be changed by long tapping and following the prompts.
Running the app (not necessary to display widgets) offers help and guidance for widgets and general river usage. Show More
