  1. 5/5Better than Surfline?

    Epic is a much more accurate app and even though it’s small when the hurricane earl swell came in Surfline was saying it was only 2-3 everywhere on Long Island but epic said it was around 5-6 and it was spot on and there has been many other times like this when it had happened

  2. 2/5good app design. never updates the surf report

    the app looks great. but really only functions for tide report. wind is almost always off. water temp is accurate in only some areas (like santa teresa costa rica is good and socal is totally messed up). wave size is literally never correct for example. im at j bay SA right now and it says it’s 14ft. which is super off. the biggest sets are at around 6ft right now. also the j bay report is not specific? sidenote you have 1 report for an area that’s around a point. it would be nice to know if it’s only good at super tubes or at lower point. maybe split the area to two or 3 points and label them by the spot name? gotta keep using MSW until epic starts updating the surf forecasts and the app more frequently

  3. 5/5My trusted fishing companion

    This has become indispensable for surf fishing. Beforehand, I can figure the best day and time to hit the beach, and figure out what tackle to bring. It makes surf fishing much less of a hit or miss experience. Also lets me know when the wave energy can be too risky for fishing.

  4. 4/5Great app

    I was trying to find an app that focuses on waves forecast and I have finally found it . Great and neat design , easy to navigate and well designed overall. The reason it’s 4/5 is that I can’t get the widget to work , can’t even find it once I try to add it from widget and I have given all sort of access and enabled all in setting.

  5. 5/5App watch

    This app is great, is there a way to add these data points to the Apple Watch complications? Love ad based products, this seems to be the only one not asking for an expensive subscription model, keep it this way please!
