Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Surf Report at 5.0 against GoSurf's 4.5. Surf Report also leads on ads (none vs shown). GoSurf's advantage is review sentiment (40% vs 25%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. GoSurf sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Surf Report sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Surf Report holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 8 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of GoSurf's written reviews are positive against 25% of Surf Report's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 14, 2026 respectively.
