1.9.4 Safe to install
Playbuoy offers valuable insights into NOAA buoy wave readings.
Detailed Swell Observations and Forecast: Playbuoy utilizes a customized algorithm to analyze NOAA buoy data, extracting comprehensive swell information from raw observations and wave models. This results in a precise breakdown of swell direction and timing. With a 16-day forecast, users can stay well-informed about upcoming ocean conditions for their preferred activities. Unlike competing apps that display only two swell components, Playbuoy shows up to five.
Beautiful and Informative Plots: Users can easily compare current buoy readings with model forecasts to anticipate any discrepancies between predicted and actual ocean conditions. Playbuoy stands out by visualizing complete directional wave spectra for both buoy observations and wave models simultaneously.
Access the latest buoy observations from across the US and beyond to monitor ongoing weather patterns or plan future activities. Users can also select favorite buoys for convenient access to essential wave information.
Widgets and watch complications offer quick access to the latest data, ensuring users never miss an important swell.
Sharing plots and swell data via a custom function allows users to collaborate with others in organizing group activities such as surfing, fishing, or boating.
