Quick access to river gauge data made available by USGS.

Features & Capabilities

Flow Alert provides quick access to USGS water data, including flow, stage, temperature, and turbidity, via USGS Water Services. You can download gauges, create nicknames, and organize favorites. Add a home screen widget that displays a selected parameter for your chosen gauges, with updates roughly every 15 minutes.

With Flow Alert you can set alerts for defined gauge criteria, view an interactive 7-day graph for each gauge, and manage alerts for all gauges in one place. Data comes from the USGS Water Services API; Flow Alert is not affiliated with USGS. For feedback, email flowalertapp@gmail.com or use the in-app feedback page.

User Reviews

Flow Alert! is praised for its user-friendly interface, home screen widgets, and usefulness for monitoring river conditions crucial for fishing, kayaking, and flood safety. It serves as a more accessible alternative to USGS websites and allows users to save favorites and set alerts. However, users note missing gauge data for some rivers, limited alert functionality, insufficient widget information (like combined flow and stage data), and desire for extended historical data and improved navigation. Overall, it remains a valued app for those needing quick river flow information.

Pros

Provides easy access to river flow and stage data on the phone's home screen through widgets.
More user-friendly and accessible alternative to the USGS website for monitoring river gauges.
Useful for outdoor activities like fishing, kayaking, and safety during flood conditions.
Allows saving favorite rivers and setting alerts for specific flow conditions.
Clean, simple, and smooth interface that is easy to use.

Cons

Limited availability of gauges for certain rivers or areas, with some important locations missing.
Alerts clear automatically after activation; users want alerts to persist and support multiple alerts.
Widgets show either flow or stage but not both simultaneously, and lack display of units or water temperature data.
History view limited to several days; users want longer-term historical data for comparison.
Navigation can be a bit convoluted when switching between rivers or exploring different dates.
