What's New in SurfBound

1.1.1

September 8, 2026

New - A redesigned session page: the essentials at a glance Open a session and see what matters — the replay map, your felt wave count, and the stats. Marking missed waves and organizing wave by wave move to a dedicated Organize Waves page: the map stays pinned on top and the whole screen belongs to the wave list. - Felt first, detected second Once you enter how many waves it felt like, the big number in the list and on the session page is yours; the auto-detected count steps back to a small caption. - More trustworthy Garmin sync The watch is only told a session arrived after your iPhone has truly saved it, resent track chunks merge into the existing record, and sessions that never reached the phone are no longer cleaned up after relaunching the watch app. SENT on the watch now means your iPhone confirmed it — otherwise it says WILL RESEND and retries next launch. Improvements - Update notes now show full screen. - Fixed layout issues in the wave-count row with larger numbers. - Various translation fixes.

My go to surf tracking app

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great surf tracking app, especially for surfing around the Bay Area! 🌊

I’ve been using it to keep track of my surf sessions, and it’s really helpful for checking conditions and seeing how my sessions are going over time. The tracking features are easy to use, and I love being able to look back at my previous sessions and compare them.

For Bay Area surfers, where conditions can change so much between different spots, this app is especially useful. Whether you’re surfing Ocean Beach, Pacifica, or other local breaks, it’s a great tool to have before and after your session.

Definitely recommend it if you surf in the Bay Area! 🏄‍♂️🌊
