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

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.
