User Reviews
Let me see daily, the impact of Green River Dam on Green River in Hart County
This is such a handy app to utilize whenever you’re planning to paddle down a river. It’s concise and very easy to read. Our entire family uses it to help ensure the safest paddle possible.
Seems like the best replacement for the now defunct RiverData. Still getting familiar with it. I'm optimistic, It can give me all the info I need in one or two taps.
We live near a river and have to watch for flooding. This app is updated regularly and able to keep my concerns at bay
Great way to track for trips!
Overall a good flow data app. The forecast (when available) and seasonal trends features are what set this app apart from the rest. I just wish it had a way to organize favorite gauges by watershed. Instead of having one big list with all my favorites on it there could be drop down tabs with custom naming options so I can collapse gauges I don’t want to see right now.
Been running rivers around the world for 20+ years. This app makes it easy to watch the water and plan accordingly.
On of my favorite apps
I use this every day to check river levels. Works flawlessly and gives me the six levels I need to watch all in one setting. Great app !!!!
It doesn’t get any better! Thanks River App for making it easy and safe to boat!
No way this much information is free if you fish or run rivers this app is a must a massive thank you to people who made it
I love this app, it’s been spot on the last 3 years I have been using it.
