Needs to figure out Precip Type

I’ve been a day one user but posted about this years ago and nothing has changed. It always DRASTICALLY overestimates amount of precip, as well as precip type. Could just be a PNW problem, but the amount of times it says it’s currently snowing when it’s raining, makes me unable to use the app. Fix it please. Today it says it’ll snow 28 inches in the gorge. That has never happened and probably won’t ever happen. But the amount of times it says this is unbearable. Deleting the app

Love Saildrone

We use it constantly for open water swimming. My only concern is that recently, tidal currents are not appearing. Otherwise I love the app and recommend to anyone who spends time in the water.

SF bay current forecast no longer works

It was the main reason I paid for subscription, but it hasn’t been working for a while.

Tidal Current not working in sf bay

The Saildrone folks are not paying attention to the app. I purchased for their current model. Now it is not refreshing. I hope they fix this soon or refund me.

A forgotten product

Extremely buggy app. No way to contact support because the links are dead. Doesn't show tidal current in the SF Bay in the app. 2 stars because you can still use the website, skip the app.

Very accurate

The most accurate forecast of all the apps I have

this is amazing

what a great app for wind and tides, tidal current, something no other app can do.

Next-level ocean forecasting

This app offers excellent technology for monitoring weather and sea conditions.

Display format

Love the format showing temperature, wind speed, and precipitation all on a graph.

wrong temp readings

Fantastic

Fantastic

Favorite app for sailing the Bay Area

This is by and far my favorite app for sailing the SF bay. I really like the features, ease of use and layout, simple but effectively full of features like tide, current and wind.

Amazing weather app

Love it so interesting and informative

No Longer Supported

May 2024: this app no longer loads data and does not appear to be supported by Saildrone any longer.

Love the currents feature!

Well worth the price as an additional data point with helpful visualizations

Best weather app available!

My go to app for everything ocean weather related. Extremely accurate, detailed and up to date. I only wish Ocean Temps were added to the overlay options. 5 star app but would be a 6 with ocean temps!

Major glitch the last 6 months

This app worked great until fairly recently - I’ve used it several years.

I now have to close and reopen the app multiple times to get the current to show up, and sometimes even that doesn’t work. Disappointing for a paid app :(

Radar doesn't load. So the app's useless.

Radar hasn't been loading for months. Just noticed it hasn't been updated in 3 years. Maybe they're out of business?

Incredible Accuracy!

I am always prepared for the weather since using this app! Very reliable!

Amazing…when it works

My favorite app for sf bay currents, but sometimes it randomly stops working, and stopped showing wind data a while ago, now just stopped loading currents too! And the help button takes you to a defunct zen desk page, which is super frustrating.
