Ok App

I like the idea of it but when I leave notes in the description of what board is needed it say conditions are similar but they aren’t. I’ll pry do a pay run and see if it’s any better.

Great session tracker

Love this app and the more I use it the better the predictions get. Love making notes about things that happened, stand out waves and who I surfed with.

Only gets 4 stars because it can be a little glitchy. Overall I like the app.

Love it!

I love this app. It stores my favorite sessions and lets me know when it’s time to paddle out. I don’t get skunked nearly as much with this app.

Surf sessions don’t record

The main reason I don’t upgrade to the paid subscription is that the sessions never log. I have sent countless reports but the issue has never been acknowledged or resolved. This didn’t happen last summer with the app so I’m not sure changed. Otherwise the layout is great and forecasts are helpful.

Not so lazy

Seems like a lot of stuffing around to get it to work, I/m lazy enough not to worry about finishing this off
