Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Wisuki at 63% against Surf Report's 25%. Wisuki also leads on ratings volume (851 vs 4). Surf Report's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Surf Report holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wisuki has 851 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Wisuki'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.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
