Sofar Spotter App Reviews

Basically a weather app ... Spent money on this garbage ... The tide and all sea info is inaccurate, no idea where they pull the data from but I can assure you the locations that I check are wrong.

Didnt appreciate having to "share" in the paid version in order to use the app. Database was corrupt. Had to uninstall and reinstall the app to get all the locations back.

I read a couple reviews stating the apps data was inaccurate, so I decided to check for myself. I compared the data the app presented against the NOAA Buoy Data website. Wind and Air temperature were close, but data on wave action and direction wasnt close. The water temperature was dangerously incorrect - it reported 83° when NOAA buoys report 61°. I live near the ocean, so I took a look first hand. The app reported calm seas, but the actual conditions were 1-2 feet. Its a shame because it is a really attractive app, but in its current version its unusable.

This App is total BS. It is crash awesome and after purchase you still get hit with ads. Really! I have had to reset my new I phone 6 at least three times trying to get the goods promised. Love the graphics and the content but not at the cost of instability and further begging. Good Luck!

dont get this app, its always wrong, youre better off just using Google.

Not very good

Warning!!!!!! Do Not Buy. (same junk as free app)

Not accurate and crashes Total junk

I was not too happy about this app earlier but now this is where I check the ocean conditions before kayaking....but the water temperature still does not match the current NOAH data.

Use app for paddling on he Hudson. Handy when combined with good weather app!

I have used this tide app for a year or so and find ut very helpful. Several areas near me are available on the screen to choose from. I find this is an excellent tide app.

I feel this is the best marine weather app out there. Very simple and easy to use with a nice graphical interface. The premium is worth it for the forecasts.

This app is simple to use and has the right amount of information!

This app provides the info recently deleted from the update to the Weather Channel app. The info is simply and clearly displayed. Improved search is all that is needed to make this app special.

Why should I have to provide my email address? App looks good but Im going to be bombarded with spam for using it. No thanks.

I like the design. It beats the hell out of others like it.

Ive been searching for (and tempted to create my own) marine weather app which would cut to the chase and give me simple info on wind and waves. This app comes as close as I have found yet.

New phone and wont let restore purchase and search no longer works - nice. And the force to share to open - no thanks. I cant seem to get any wave heights or direction for buoys in my area in current conditions or forecast mode bouys: 41004, 41008, 41002. Also, the tide indicator doesnt reflect the tide time. If the tide is high at 12:30 and its 11:30 showing an outgoing tide indicator. The graphics and layout are great, but without the data to back it up, not worth it.

Provides all necessary information and very easy to read.

Easy to navigate! Easy to use and contains all pertinent information I need. Swell, water temp, tide, and wind. Thank you!!!!!!
