New update stinks

You really believe this update is good? Customization is gone. Now i have to pick a buoy every time i open it? So glad i am paying you for this. Well, back to FishWeather i go

Goat

Always spot on

great information….

I like the information provided by this app however it’s annoying when I keep getting asked to rate the app every 30 seconds while I’m trying to look at the weather between two and three different buoys to plan a trip

Using

I’m having difficulty selecting buoys.

New version not as good

The older version gave me the forecast for the day that I am now not able to find.

Buoy Map gone

Why would the map that shows buoys go away. Can only search by nearby and can’t see buoys on map to pick which one I want to view or save. I have paid for this app because I fly over water in helicopters and want to know water temp! Fix this! Or I will be cancelling and deleting the app. Disappointed.

Easy to use. Provides reliable data.

Great for planning my local diving activities.

App is ruined with new update

App is horrible with the newest update. It’s super bugged

Must do

My must do check in before I even hook the boat to the truck.

Bummer

You ruined this app

Where are the current buoy reports? What happened? I can’t find anything.

Current wind and a reasonable prediction is all I need

New version is not a straight forward to use

The new version is cumbersome. Old version was quick and easy to switch locations and find basic data. Not a fan of the changes and will look for alternatives.

Really don’t like new format

See title

Caution

I bought the subscription to see the wind and wave height forecast for surfing and kayak fishing off shore. The free version showed me the NOAA forecast but the paid version only shows me the current day. Would not have paid for the subscription knowing this.

Horrible app

This app is horrible. It’s all about upgrading and up selling

Just what I need to make decisions

Current wind and a reasonable prediction is all I need

Essential

As a sailor on Lake Michigan, you have to know the conditions. Forecasts are important but knowing actual conditions gives me 5he full picture

Exceptional App

Great weather app I use it daily for my fishing charter business. Bouycast is accurate and dependable. Keep up the good work.

no location setting

won't let me put location in

What’s up with the small craft and weather advisory

Why aren’t the small crafts and weather advisories on the locations for where they we issued? You get the notices, but they do not appear in the stations.

Any ideas?????
