  • An Amazing Weather Aggregator

    This app has so much detailed weather data from multiple sources available and is a lot more reliable getting current data. I’ve used ‘predictor’ apps like Windy and PredictWind and they don’t hold a candle to it. The developer is incredibly prompt in responding and resolving to any issues. You get data from the source to make your own decisions without inconsistent predictive algorithms, especially if you live where local information and observations aren’t as plentiful. The real time observations like buoys and stations are great. A much better deal than other apps out there.

  • Used to be good.

    I’ve been using this app exclusively to collect offshore fishing information for about 3 years. It’s always been easy to use. Recently I noticed it had stopped showing me swell reports which are exceedingly important information when going off shore. I contacted the developer and had two brief emails back and forth then nothing. I was left with a screen shot the developer sent me simply telling me that they can see the swell reports in California… great for them not for me. Unfortunately for me this app has become virtually useless and seeing the number of apps the developer now has it’s not surprising they aren’t willing to help troubleshoot this one for one loyal user.

  • Best app for surfers!

    This is the most reliable and accurate app for surf reports. Information is relayed directly from user selected buoys. The information isn’t rounded up, so if the buoys indicate 3.3’ swell, that is what you’ll see. Some apps either round up to the nearest whole number or are so far off that I don’t think it was because of rounding.

    I don’t have the pro model so I can’t speak to other features available on the app but judging from what is available on the free version, I’m sure they’d be just as impressive. Both the app for my phone and watch are useful. I check this app for surf reports and forecasts.

    Also, I had some trouble setting up a Marine Weather complication on my watch. I thought I’d reach out to the developer, not really expecting a response. I received help and worked out my issue the same day. I’m immensely impressed with the support from this brand.

  • By far the best Marine Weather App on the planet!

    I tip my hat to the App dev and App rat team on this marine weather App.

    The compilation of various NOAA data bases, graphic interfaces, satellite imagery, and simple/ease of accessing and navigating data screens makes this App a stand out in the world of available marine Apps.
    The App has managed to compile numerous data graphics and sources on a single control pane of glass! No more fumbling through various (and limited detail) sites to piece together desired weather elements while attempting to navigate through the convoluted government sites to obtain desired marine weather.

    I have all of my boating friends now using this App.

    Great job App team. Joel

  • Must have for boaters

    We love this app especially for accurate and the quickest notifications of upcoming weather. You will get updates as soon as they are posted from various weather systems directly making this a must have for any activity dependant on the weather. 👍👍
  • So good

    It’s got everything you need for marine weather and passage weather planning. Yes… all of this is available through other free sites… but the NOAA site is so convoluted and unfriendly for mobile use and this app assembles that with buoy data and various models… it’s easily worth the subscription… especially if your time is precious and frustration (or lack of) is even more precious.

  • Immediate alerts and responsive help

    Alerts are instantaneous with NOAA, and quickly pop on my iPhone. The ability to chose spot forecasts is a great feature, and shows the difference between smooth seas and burying the bow. Questions to the developers are answered just as fast as the alerts!!! I have been using pro version for 3 years now and it’s my go to first look.

    Thank you for the review!!!
  • Great App

    I’m a charter captain and have used many weather prediction and data systems. This app is now my goto weather check several times daily. It even has me thinking of getting an Apple Watch! Great support too.
  • Super helpful and very easy

    One thing I love about this app is that it is available on Apple Watch and I can set up the watch to show me wave height! Just by lifting my wrist I can see what the local wave height is and make a determination on whether to go out on the water or not. Also I emailed the developer asking him to add a buoy and within 24 hours it was live on the app. That’s great customer service!

  • Advice from the developer was a big help

    It took me a while to figure out how to navigate and this app and get precise weather conditions inshore, close to where I usually take my boat. A quick response to an email request gave me this tip: “the best thing to do is tap multiple places in the water and get a feel for the NWS point forecast for that area. Then, click the Zone button in the top right which will give you an overall summary for the region.” When I zoomed in really close on the map, this technique worked well. The app wasn’t quite as intuitive as I needed at first, but now I understand it.
