Buoycast: NOAA Marine Weather Customer Service

Buoycast: NOAA Marine Weather Positive Reviews

Sea Conditions show half the timeUPDATE***- I was in contact with Mike at Buoycast and advised him of the issue I had with some of the areas in Alaska and within a day it was fixed and has worked great since. Great customer service. I would recommend this app to any boater in Alaska (and elsewhere). Previous 3 star review: My main reason for getting the app is to quickly check wind speed and sea swells so I can plan trips. When I open the app, I’d say about half the time that data is not present and I have to go on the NOAA website. Then, when it is present, and I cross reference it to the NOAA website, about 25% of the time it shows rougher seas than the website. So I’m a bit annoyed. I’m going off the seas for the NOAA website this weekend to see who’s right (hoping the website). 3 stars because: Everything else is accurate and consistently works. Would have 5 stars if it fixed what I stated above..AlaskaFishing47Version: 3.8.7

Great productThis is a great product, and the creator is extremely helpful. I’ve been using this for a couple years now, and it’s awesome to have all the info in one spot w/ nice interface. Had an issue last week, with the forecast not updating. Sent an email to the app creator, he immediately fixed the problem and let me know via email. Very helpful, would recommend!.B3006Version: 3.7.5

Product and Support the bestBuoycast is a great product made better with their outstanding support. Less than 12 hours after I reported issues with the app not showing any data for 4 nearby buoys they were fixed. After upgrading to the latest version an issue with 2 buoys was fixed with in 4 hours!.Lovethebirds1Version: 3.0.6

Great App for Keeping My House BattenedI live on a peninsula at the confluence of multiple straits and the winds can be strong and come from any direction. This app allows me to check the forecast based on the closest buoy and even better, get notifications of wind advisories. This allows me and my family to make sure windows are closed and outdoor furniture is secure before the wind hits..FuzzbeansVersion: 2.1.1

Confidence BuilderWe like to think that we are doing a great job planning our cruises. Checking the buoys on our route to get a picture of what is really going on and if our forecast matches “Actuals” gives us a safe feeling and confidence in our forecast tools. I would not go out without Buoycast..SteveQAVersion: 3.8.5

My go-to for offshore fishing.I have been using this app for years fishing the Gulf of Mexico. It has consistently been accurate the entire time. I trust this app and the buoy forecasts with making decisions to take my family out on the boat..SaltyFrog1217Version: 3.8.3

Good content, too much hard sellThe data is excellent and thorough but the basic local area marine forecast (all government data, probably free to the provider) is difficult to access. For example, the near shore forecasts for the Illinois shore of Lake Michigan are sometimes unavailable. That data is the most important forecast for safety..George the Chicago SailorVersion: 3.8.3

Useful boating tool!I appreciate the push notifications to get updates directly from buoy data. Notifications for small craft advisories and wave data keep me abreast of unsafe conditions both on land and the water..SthormstrikeVersion: 3.6

Crap serviceThe app states that you get the 5day marine forecast with the free version. That is the only thing a person who intermittently goes to the coast needs, so why should I pay for anything that NOAA produces for free? Just so you can make it pretty! Poss off!.NetregnarVersion: 3.6

Show me the DataVery nice looking App as far as data presentation, but what value is it if there is no up to date data....Multiple stations on the App indicate No data available, but looking at the NOAA page directly for buoys all data is showing... ???.FloatnByVersion: 2.1.1

Data not availableThis has the potential to be useful however Most of the weather stations at least for the mid bay report wind and temperatures data not available..Solace36Version: 1.4.1

NOAA Your nearest marine forecast is so easy!I don't have to go topside and turn on weather channel or fire up PC or TV... I just open this app and my nearshore weather and forecast is there and in a very pleasing format. I love it! This is the same data I can get elsewhere but quicker and prettier!.TnarbsVersion: 1.2.1

Buoycast huge letdownWhen i first had Buoycast it gave wind and wave action and was highly useful for safe boating. Now, even paying, it provides nothing in the way of wave height and boating information. What the heck happened???.Celtic boatVersion: 3.1

You can rely on BuoycastThis App is very reliable and it updates the wind speeds and all of the Information you could ask for on the water..RG in DresdenVersion: 3.8.3

Trusted and awesome forecast appI’ve been using the app for years and highly recommend it for boating. It’s simple, accurate and the customer service is phenomenal..Mike JancovicVersion: 3.0.3

Current wind speedThe current wind speed and th other info in that section never seem to be available. Otherwise I find it very useful for tides and marine conditions.Letsgoboating7Version: 2.1.1

Great for current conditionsThis is a great app to determine current conditions but could be much improved by adding an easier way to see a forecast for conditions throughout the day..SMDFredVersion: 3.7.3

New version not as goodThe older version gave me the forecast for the day that I am now not able to find..IdsgfhvchvxfhvfgbcfhvffVersion: 4.0.8

Great ProductThis app is a must for navigation assistance and should be used along with radar and local notice to mariners in your Votage Planning..Cap10jrVersion: 3.1

Stacey ChandlerThis is the best marine weather app out there as far as I’m concerned. It’s clear, simple and gives all the pertinent information that you need to get out on the water!.Stacha1Version: 1.4.1

InaccuraciesEven though I have location services on it cannot determine my location and only provides sites along the Texas Coast. I’m on the Mississippi Gulf Coast but the buoys I want are not even on the list. How do I remove buoys from the list?.Greg SrVersion: 2.0.2

Easy to use. Provides reliable data.Great for planning my local diving activities..Jim CocciVersion: 4.0.6

EssentialAs a sailor on Lake Michigan, you have to know the conditions. Forecasts are important but knowing actual conditions gives me 5he full picture.JwootVersion: 3.8.8

Quick & easyOpens to nearby buoy report and then can get the marine forecast and click to get the nearby reports also. Tide data a nice bonus..Keith211Version: 1.4.1

Exceptional AppGreat weather app I use it daily for my fishing charter business. Bouycast is accurate and dependable. Keep up the good work..Willie from philly.Version: 3.8.8

No buoy data after updateAfter updating yesterday, the app isn't pulling wave height/period, wind, temps, or really any data for my local buoys. I went online via browser and confirmed that they are active and logging data. Not sure what's going on with the app. Normally 5-star..JFutrelleVersion: 1.4.1

QuickQuick and simple to use! The way an app should be..JJCapeCodVersion: 2.1

What’s up with the small craft and weather advisoryWhy aren’t the small crafts and weather advisories on the locations for where they we issued? You get the notices, but they do not appear in the stations. Any ideas?????.PodsashVersion: 3.8.7

Great accessGreat access to the most timely information available. Uncomplicated and stable. You can’t beat it..HiltonheadnedVersion: 1.3.1

No wave interval data.Nice app, but they don't give enough data from the buoy. Most of what the app gives I can get from the weather channel..ForeboyVersion: 1.2.1

Great appThis is a fantastic app thoroughly enjoy using it and tells me what I need to know when I need to know it. Great job..Capt.hbVersion: 3.8.3

My go toReally good. Clear. Easy banner on small craft advisory. Wish there were more bouys out there, but not their fault. Like it. . So weather dependent in North east but this app is great..JstuartkVersion: 2.1.1

Great marine forecastingAble to find all my local and regional marine forecasts. Also great for planning longer voyages to waters outside my local area..Capt. YachtieVersion: 3.0.6

BotheringEnough with trying to push the Buoycast Pro. I’m not a pro and it clutters up the use of the app..Whitey faceVersion: 3.1
