Was a great App. Used to use it for monitoring river level for fishing but now seems that it doesn’t work. No updates since early July. Such a shame

I live right next to The West Lyn river in North Devon which flooded and took lives in 1952. River levels change rapidly and it can turn into a raging torrent after prolonged heavy rain. This app is something I keep close at hand during those weather events.

I use this app for my river fishing and also I Co own a salt marsh, I am on the marsh weekly, this app is handy to see the river water levels as this has a massive impact on incoming tide heights. For instance a tide of about 28 foot and a normal river level, the high water would be at least 6 feet from coming over the grass, but a high river level would push the tide over 6 feet high above the grass, if you were still out there it would be life threatening. Highly recommend this app, you can see the current rise or fall and compare in a graph over the last month.
