So much information at your fingertips, and I love how you can select surf destinations all over the world. **Developer response:** Hey thanks for the awesome review! Appreciate you giving this app a go :) - Chris, Developer ### 5/5 — Nice New Surf Tool *2026-03-25* Use this for my place in Nica, the Bahamas and it is spot on. Great new visual tools to plan for any spot on the planet. ### 5/5 — Best surf forecast app out there *2026-03-22* Forecasting every spot out there, yourself. What a dream. ### 5/5 — Looks great! *2026-03-16* Just downloaded (lifetime backer from kickstarter) and really impressed. Still have yet to get out, but really unique how you are able to select the spot and tailor it. Get insight provided for the experienced swell tracker, and also simple enough for someone that is new. I was tired of how far Surfline is off at my local swell (commentary does not match my local break at all) and mainly use it for the cams. ### 5/5 — So useful *2026-03-12* This app has been so so useful for charting out spots and especially logging them. Keeping track of what tides, and swell directions have been the most fun has been super useful. My one wish is to have a forecast view on the homepage where I can see the 3 day view across all spots i have marked. Other than that, perfect. ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-03-02* Has a great interface to show wind and swell height, direction, period and energy all at once. Ability to set your own swell direction window angles is great and found the predictions to be reliable on the Aus East Coast. **Developer response:** Woot thanks mate! Glad to hear it's working smoothly. Any compliment about the UI always puts a big grin on my face :) - Chris, Developer ### 5/5 — Amazing App *2026-02-23* Used this all since their beta release and been absolutely loving it. The fact that you can set a spot anywhere in the world and see the forecast for it it’s so helpful, specially for those who love the feeling of the search and score some gems. Also the logbook feature has been so helpful to be able to make the right call on certain swells , never disappoints! **Developer response:** Honoured to have you using the app since the early days - it wouldn't be where it is today without input from awesome folks like you :) ### 5/5 — Best surf app out there *2026-02-21* Getting a forecast for any point on the map is amazing. Loving the swell & wind direction indicators- very easy to use! **Developer response:** Love to hear it - thanks for taking the time to leave a review! Appreciate you sharing the stoke :) - Chris, Developer ### 5/5 — Awesome App *2026-02-19* Love being able to really take control of my own surf, better understand the local spots, and feel more in tune with the conditions wherever I am. Awesome app! **Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words! Glad to hear the idea is resonating with ya :) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 3/5 — Good and bad *2026-06-19* Great tools for surf and wind direction etc but condition reports constantly “Excellent” or “good” at worst. Even when condition are definitely bad ### 4/5 — Keep it up ty *2026-05-25* Keep grinding ty ### 5/5 — Worth it *2026-07-04* Exactly what I was missing with Surfline. SwellScope lets me identify what surf I like and then lets me know if it’s hitting the same or similar. Watching cams or looking at star reviews doesn’t help as much as that. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-06-23* Great app, shows you the conditions and allows you to log sessions so you can see how the conditions compare to previous days. Dev is also awesome with communication and giving feedback on updates. 10/10⭐️ ### 5/5 — Amazing Visual Surf Reports *2026-06-23* 🤙🔥 ### 5/5 — Become the master of your own surf calls *2026-06-23* I never thought a forecast website could solve the secret spot dilemma up until this. I can set my spot and it’s just set for myself, nobody else gets to see it! What more do you want. Let’s go! ### 5/5 — Uniquely helpful *2026-05-30* My primary source before heading out. I have to drive a minimum hour and a hour to reach a surf spot, swell scope helps me pick the best spots with information that’s easy to understand and custom to my spots. My only wish list item is being able to locate spots a bit faster, a Google Maps integration of some sort would go a long ways but I love Swell Scope all the same ### 5/5 — Excelente! *2026-05-24* O app facilita muito a interpretação das ondas. A análise com base nos registros de usuários e toda visualização das previsões são ótimas tbm. Acho o preço salgado para o Brasil, poderia ter uma versão mais simples gratuita. ### 5/5 — Loving it! *2026-05-14* I am a new surfer, and this app is tremendously empowering. ### 5/5 — Amazing app! *2026-04-14* I am a lifeguard and I use this app daily to get further information on the conditions and predictions on future conditions, I have been using this since the beta release and I recommend it to all the lifeguards I work with because of the level of detail it goes into! **Developer response:** mate - thanks for leaving such a kind review! Honoured to have a lifeguard using the app - that's the coolest thing I've heard. Would love to hear more about how you're using it if you're keen to reach out on email (chris@swell-scope.com) or instagram! ## Most praised reviews (2 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best surf app you could get *2026-04-14* Genuinely so easy to use and set up spots, very user friendly, all around great app ### 5/5 — My new forecast app! *2026-04-10* Absolutely loving it since we were a few beta testers 🤙🏻 keep it up!
