Bring the tide back please

Isn't it ironic that as a paying Soul Surfer, you can access information about what the tide *was* during your sesh, but Dawn Patrol have recently removed that information from the screen when you're actually surfing!? Knowing the tide at a given moment and when it will next turn is, in some spots, a huge determinant re: whether one should stay in the water. Am I in the middle of a very long lull, or has the tide risen and swamped out the spot? The tide number would provide important clues. It's often a major safety consideration too--at some spots I surf, rocks and reef become dangerously close to the surface or start to emerge at certain tides. It's very important for me to know not just where we are in the tide cycle, but the actual number. 2 feet. 5 feet. -1.5 feet. Both for the in-session screen and the watch complications, it has become increasingly difficult to understand what the tide is now and when it'll turn. The charts that currently load look cool but are practically far less useful than the previous setup. because the actual numbers have been left out.

Suggestion: I don't care about my total wave time, nor seeing the tide graph complication with unmarked axes showing what it’ll be at 2am. Can you please remove those and give me the tide numbers within the session interface again so I can make important go/no-go decisions in the water and surf more safely? Thank you!

Amazing app, a bit buggy with Apple Watch Ultra right now

I have been a huge fan of the Dawn Patrol app for a couple years now. It’s been such a great way for me to keep track of my surfing progression over the years. It has historically done an amazingly accurate job with the tracking it does, and I’ve enjoyed the updates they’ve pushed over the past couple of years too, such as being able to take notes about conditions at the break as part of each stored session. Only tempering my rating because I recently upgraded to an Apple Watch Ultra specifically because I was hoping for a more accurate tracking experience, but right now, the app is buggy on the Ultra. While it technically works, it misses most waves and when it does actually record something, it’s very much wrong info - incorrect distance, speed, etc. And I hate coming back from a great session with bad data or even no waves tracked from the app! It also often shows GPS data that bounces around a lot.

In addition to fixing the bugs with what waves the app currently captures, it would be amazing to add a feature allowing you to go back and add waves that you actually did catch rather than just being able to delete waves that weren’t real waves.

Awesome app

It was a few years back when I started seeing gps surf watches that tracked your sessions and didn’t think until now that there might just be an app for my Apple Watch. The first time I used it was pretty straight forward. You just start your session and forget about it. It was pretty cool to glance at my wrist after every wave and see how far I went or how fast I was going. Then getting out of the water and looking at the more detailed stats on my phone when I got back to my car was pretty cool, especially the map that shows the waves you caught. It can even display the waves you attempted to catch but didn’t. I’m usually in the water for about an hour on weekdays before I have to get my day started and I found myself trying to reach certain goals like 15 waves before the hour is up. Since the watch app shows it at a quick glance, it makes you want to try harder and challenge yourself. I probably won’t be wearing my watch in the water all that much because I hate getting a watch tan, but every once in a while this would be a great way to get some unique stats about your surfing.
