it's ok, I'm an East Coast surfer so I'm always checking to see if the surf is going to be good. I bought premium last November and thought it was alright the 16 day forecast it gives is usually inaccurat as the day gets closer but that's to be expected. as far as the live cams go, you can just look up the surf cams on YouTube(in my location.) The best thing about premium is the surf reports that update a few times a day instead of two. over all I don't think it's worth $16 a month, maybe $7.99

Been using for years because no good alternatives and always hoped it would get better, but it's stayed consistently mediocre. Takes forever to load, data is old, always logs you out, forgets your favorites, can't recognize your location. Now always changing pricing, pushing premium upgrades and useless tracking features. Wish they would focus on accurate data, bug testing before releasing, hiring competent programmers, and telling me it's going to be windy at my spot.

I used to use it all the time. I was even a subscriber at one time. But I started noticing that the data was always incorrect. Then they went and turned greedy. Suddenly, most of the cameras couldn't be used unless you subscribed. What is the information is not available unless you subscribe. The trend is shown that you'll barely be able to use any of their information unless you subscribe. Yeah, i'm not about getting bullied like that. I found two other apps that actually get it right. Im out.
