Review summary

Marline is repeatedly praised for a stunning, minimal UI and its all-in-one display of tides, moon phases, and basic weather, which many beach enthusiasts find attractive and convenient. However, the app suffers from stability and usability problems: frequent crashes, perpetual loading screens, and occasional failure to open. Several reviews also point to a steep learning curve and a missing tutorial, making it hard to access features like hourly forecasts, 7-day outlook, and widgets. Data accuracy issues and location/device compatibility concerns also recur. The core idea is strong, but execution and support need fixes.
Pros
  • Gorgeous, polished UI/design that many reviews highlight
  • All-in-one data: tides, weather, moon phases, sunrise/sunset in a single app
  • Clear, readable visuals that are easy to scan at a glance
  • Particularly useful for beach/ocean activities and tide planning
  • Lightweight, less clutter compared to ad-heavy weather apps
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and stability issues; the app won’t open or freezes
  • Lack of tutorials or guidance; not intuitive to discover features
  • Tide data and forecasts are reported as inaccurate or unreliable
  • Missing key features like hourly/7-day forecast and widgets
  • Compatibility/location problems; doesn't work well on some devices/OS versions or with certain locations

2024-06-15 Re***** Running iOS 17.5.1 on a 12 Pro. The app starts. I do a search. The app disappears. Neat feature, but I am not certain it’s meant to work that way. I hope the beaches are nice by you!

2022-09-10 Sa***** High tide & low tide information is so important for exercising on the beach, for fishing, camping and other oceanside activities. The app is well put together, easily read with time, temperature, sunrise, sunset, moon stage and high & low tide times. I highly recommend it!

2022-05-22 Ar***** A nice alternative to the weather apps that bombard you with ads and videos. Weather, temperatures, wind, tides and moon are included. Just swipe around to find the data.

2022-05-12 ri***** Sure, it’s pretty. But I can’t figure out how to use it and there’s no manual or tutorial. Absolutely useless and probably soon to be deleted from the App Store. It has t been updated in years. But it is pretty.

2020-10-17 gu***** The app is very attractive but the tidal information is completely wrong. No matter where I am, it’s 100% incorrect.
