### 1/5 — Poor app

*2020-05-24*

Don’t waste your time

### 2/5 — Got potential

*2020-02-17*

This app is nice and near but surf report/forecast is not reliable.  At least not accurate for favorite spots around Cape Town, South Africa.

**Developer response:** Hi and thank you so much for your comment. Weather forecast is provided by NOAA but maybe something got wrong with buoys recently! We'd gently ask you to check forecast again now and see if everything is fixed. We will be continuing to work hard to get the service better for you and all the others surfers using Line app. Please, do not hesitate to contact us again and, well, if forecast service is ok, we would kindly ask you to review your rating! Thank you again for your message. It helps us to improve. Aloha, Andrea!
