Review summary

The reviews are mixed. Some users find PredictCurrent useful for detailed current data and consider it their go-to app among weather/tide tools. However, the majority express frustration with paywalls for current maps, mandatory account sign-ups, and opaque pricing. Many report not seeing data unless they subscribe, plus recurring issues setting locations or the app failing to respond. Several reviews accuse advertising of misrepresenting free availability. Overall, strong technical capabilities are often overshadowed by access barriers and privacy concerns.

Pros

Useful and frequently used by some users as their go-to weather/tide app.
Offers detailed currents hour-by-hour for those who want granular data.
Appeals to enthusiasts who enjoy current data and navigation detail.

Cons

Paywall: current maps and data are behind a premium subscription; many reviewers feel it's not free.
Mandatory account creation and privacy concerns; reports of login issues and data handling worries.
Data not available unless you subscribe; pricing perceived as opaque/expensive.
Location setup issues: app can fail to add location or respond when setting a location.
Advertising misleads: free label but main features are paid.

2026-07-20	xS*****	The UX design of this and the predict wind is terrible. I have a subscription so I muscle through it but having to save your location before getting the data you need is a pain. Just give me the data from my current location or a location I choose. Why do I always need to save a location before the app can give be any data. Terrible. Also the app doesn’t work. Just takes 39 seconds to load and just goes to a black screen.

2025-12-04	ol*****	I’ve been using Windy for current info but thought I would try this since I like PresictWind. When I went to set up a location around my current position I got an error message that says “Unable to Add Location There is no current data available at this location. Try a location that is not on land, or is in deeper water.” I’m 800 miles south of Hawaii in 24,000 feet of water. How much deeper do you want?
