Description
Marine weather & Wave surfing
Surf reports in real-time by checking nearby marine weather buoys.

Real-time surf reports at a glance through the weather buoy stations (wave sizes, direction, period, wind speed/direction and more).

Buoy readings made easy for surfing. Get aware if the surf is good in advance.
Too often swell arrives later than predicted, checking the buoy waves data you can determine if the swell has arrived. If not, go back to bed =)

▶ Over 400 NOAA & worldwide buoys.
▶ iOS Home and Lock screen widgets!
▶ Waves size notifications to score the best surf.
▶ Favorites buoys.
▶ New watchOS complications.
▶ Historic charts.
▶ Dark or Light mode support.

▶ HOW IT WORKS
Set your nearest or preferred buoy as your main one and your are ready to get real-time updates, 24-hour chart data, buoy alerts and much more.

You will be able to set Modular, Graphic and Circular complications that will display buoy data at a glance.

If offline, lastly marine buoys observations will always be available for your main buoy.

Buoy readings include swell size, direction and period. Some buoys provide weather information, such as wind direction, wind speed, air and water temperature.

Buoy data is provided by the National Data Buoy Center of NOAA (http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov), Candhis (https://candhis.cerema.fr/), Meteo-France (https://donneespubliques.meteofrance.fr/), Puertos del Estado (https://puertos.es) and other public services.

PLEASE ADD watchOS WIDGET!!

edit: received developer response. amended rating. hoping to see continued progress :^) i’ve had this app for a long time. for a while i thought it’d been abandoned, but recently it has been getting better fairly consistently. i recently paid for the Pro version and, while i have no idea what exactly that entitles one to, i will note that the data refreshes seem more immediate and snappy. is that Pro? dunno. the developer needs to follow Apple’s lead with watchOS 10 and pivot the app to a “Widget first” functionality, which massively improves background refresh while minimizing battery impact. PLEASE ADD watchOS WIDGET!! the improvements are welcome. hope to see more
