Fatal error with app

App is closing when I pick a region. When I try to re-open the app it immediately closes. This bug needs to be fixed.

RIP

RIP in peace, here’s to the memories of a once great app

And yes, I do see the need to be redundant. Bite me.

No updates, old data

This app no longer seems to update. It used to show today as the top data and the following 5-7 days underneath. It now shows Thursday at the top no matter what day you check it and the data for the days displayed is inaccurate.

Terrible

This is actually the worst app I have used. The location-based data is all wrong and the layout is completely dysfunctional. I want my $2.99 back.

Used to work

This used to be a nice Tim to use for forecasting site diving conditions. Note never the web version or the paid app version works. It been brides for months now and wish they would fix it.

Bogus!!

It’s saying 3-4ft+ for my location and it’s literally flat. 5-7ft tomorrow and it’s FLAT

App hasn’t updated for a month.

Moving on. The tides are still automatically updating but no forecasts. Sorry folks. Was a good app and I always recommended it. No more.

App doesn’t work

Don’t waste your money , app no longer updates.

It is back

Just to update from all of the negative reviews. It seems they’ve fixed their issues with the data and the app gives accurate forecasts again. Glad to see since Corporate greed has ruined Surfline, and that same corporate greed has driven Surfline to buy out and kill off magic seaweed. SwellInfo always have more accurate forecasts to my local spot than either of the than Surfline and MSW, so glad to have this option back in action. (It’s been fixed for a year or so.)

Not working

It shows swells coming, but always flat today every where, app is useless now

Not worth it anymore

Used to be my go to but now they don’t really keep up with it. 👎🏾

It’s back!?

I just checked the app on a whim. Appears to be updating again. I’m in Hawaii. Don’t know about other locations. I’m glad to see it come back to life.

Anyone Home?

Used to be a great App, now it’s no longer updated and appears everyone just left it to die...

Not workin

This app no longer provides surf forecasts or real time data. Yesterday was 8’ here, app said “flat”. Been this way for months. Do not buy it.

Data is far to be accurate.

This app used to work good , but the last several months , they stopped updating the data.
Now it’s just worthless, waste of time and money.
Junk.

Not accurate and doesn’t show forecast

Had free version for years and was great. Bout 6 months to a year ago it went dead. Bought this app version for $2.99 and it shows just the days report (says 1-2 but it’s actually 6-7) and the rest of the week says ‘none’ all throughout. Which is also not tru. Do not purchase. Something is not right

Stopped updating a good app

Letting it die.

This app died

I’ve used this app for a few years and found it very useful and relatively accurate until around July of this year, 2019. Then it just stopped working all together. No idea what happened. Tried to reinstall several times, to no avail.
Please fix this app!!!!!

Don’t Buy!
