## Great Lakes Boating Weather Reviews in United States

### ***** "Amazing app"
Great app for checking into about lake
-- ended ggk gah I&#039;m, 2025-07-10

### ***** "Best Great Lake App"
If you like to beach or boat 😊👍🏻
-- hidebro, 2025-05-09

### *---- "Buoys don’t work"
Kind of a waste of money. I live 90 miles from Lake Michigan and would like to know wave conditions before leaving the house. Those are not working.
-- boiler1389, 2025-04-14

### **--- "Waves 1 ft or less?"
I’m in Northern lower Michigan on Lake Michigan.  Every report is waves of 1 ft or less, yet I’m watching waves crash over the break wall in Leland.  Does not give me great confidence as a lake tool.
-- bcboater, 2024-07-29

### *---- "Not Impressed"
Looking for help about the weather for our fishing trip, downloaded app, paid 2.99, but didn’t get the info we were looking for…
-- TinkPaul, 2024-02-09

### *---- "Buoy Data"
Information I found most useful when I first got this app is the Buoy Data which no longer loads. About a month ago the screen just keeps trying to load but never does. Very disappointing.
-- 44bird44, 2023-08-03

### ***** "Excellent boating and weather app."
Very easy to use. Has all the information one needs to plan a safe boating trip. I use it as my weather app as it gives detailed and accurate forecasts over several days.
-- TOWNEAUTO, 2022-09-27

### *---- "Waste"
Useless
-- HouseplansNO, 2022-09-18

### ***** "Roy H  Traverse City, MI"
Excellent and multiple usefulness.

A must have for us, especially when operating on Lake Michigan.
-- xheese puffs, 2022-08-25

### ****- "Quick Marine Weather"
A quick look at the marine weather for a point on the map. Use this to navigate up and down the west coast of Michigan. Not sure the wave by prediction is always accurate, but maybe it’s my imagination let the waves are 1 foot larger than they expect. The one complaint I have is that a weather alert pops up every time I launch the app or change the point. But I have yet to figure out how to see what the NWS alert is for.
-- hendoda, 2022-08-20

### ***** "Great App"
This is my “go-to” app for boating on Lake Michigan. Data is always accurate &amp; up to date. The presentation of data is very intuitive, logical, &amp; functional. Can’t go wrong here.
-- K9th, 2021-09-06

### ***** "Helpful for boating Superior"
Got this to check what the weather and waves are like on Lake Superior before I make the one hour boat pull down to her. Nice cause it has the buoys info if they are online telling you the real time wave height. Radar for weather built in as well to see if any storms role in, and even charts for depth and hazards. The info this provides for safe travels is well worth the $2.99.
-- Stonewolfdark, 2021-07-29

### *---- "Mostly wrong"
Nothing like being on the water in 6’waves and your app says 1’ or less.
-- Virtus71, 2020-10-16

### ***-- "Wave data"
There needs to be wave data from yr bouys. I would have given a higher rating otherwise
-- Crowfoot49269, 2020-08-29

### ***** "Love the app"
I can plan my fishing with this app. Like to see not only the wave height but the swell height as well.
-- Bugsplat65, 2019-07-23

### *---- "Nothing’s updated"
Why did I just pay for an app and nothing’s updated? Waist of my money.
-- Sl48060, 2019-07-07

### ***** "Great App!"
A must if you boat in the Great Lakes!
-- Stinkycolon, 2019-04-24

### ***** "Oz23456"
Works great, reads everything to the tee!
-- Maxsboat, 2018-09-12

### ***** "Great AP for Great Lakes Sailors"
This is very cool. Give a great summary relevant to boaters by touching your location in the screen.  You can see wave height for the bouts near you. When I wasn’t sure what wave period was I emailed a question and Will wrote me back within a few minutes with a detailed article from surfology. Buy it, definitely a good AP, especially for the money.
-- Sailor Norm, 2018-08-21

### ***** "Great go to app"
Thanks for the current update.  Live where 3 of the Great Lakes meet, so good for weather and outdoors activity.  Look forward to future update.  Know NOAA takes their water buoys out in December, but would like to see winter 
Forecasts like lake effect snow and ice buildup on Great Lakes if it gets cold enough
