User reviews

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

Great app

I like how you can create your own spots with ease. My only suggestion is to be able to see all of your spots on a map. Maybe a map button on the bottom where you can see all your spots and see a preview of how it’s doing.

Exact predictions on any spot

This app is super accurate. I went to my local spot just to see how it compared and it was spot on

Surfline but cheaper and better

This app is great I just got into body boarding and finding a spot has been challenging there so much information that Surfline dose not have. It’s also really organized and easy to find your spots and the session tracking is definitely gonna help me because I can track my progress and write notes to know what to improve on overall w app and it’s $50 cheaper than Surfline.

FAQ

What does Lazy Surfer do?

Lazy Surfer provides personalized surf reports and forecasts. It uses real buoy data to predict wave conditions at your favorite surf spots and sends alerts when your preferred conditions are met. You can also log your surf sessions to help the app learn and improve its predictions for you.

How does Lazy Surfer personalize surf forecasts?

Unlike generic surf forecasting sites, Lazy Surfer takes your personal wave preferences into account. It allows you to define what kind of waves you like, such as bigger or mid-sized, and provides personalized reports so you know when and where it's best for you to surf.

What are the key features of Lazy Surfer?

Key features include alerts for your favorite surf conditions, personalized predictions for wave quality at your favorite spots, and the ability to log sessions. It also offers a 16-day personalized report and forecast, and allows you to share session information with friends.

Is Lazy Surfer free to use?

The application is free to download and use, but it does offer in-app purchases. The description suggests that the more sessions you log, the better the information the app provides, implying that some features or enhanced functionality might be tied to usage or potential purchases.

How does Lazy Surfer differ from other surf forecasting apps?

Lazy Surfer differentiates itself by focusing on personalized reports based on real buoy data rather than nearshore conditions, which it claims are often inaccurate. It also considers individual preferences for wave types, unlike one-size-fits-all ratings found on other popular surf forecasting websites.
