Conditions information, never permission.
Session Scout reads the water at your spots — wind, waves, swell, tide and sky — and rates every hour for your sport, at your level. Your personal shorecast - the same hour can be Good for a kayaker and Poor for a wing foiler. It knows the difference. It describes; you decide.
THE READ
• Per-sport ratings tuned to your ability, hour by hour
• Wind read against the shore: onshore, cross, offshore — the number that changes everything
• Forecast confidence, honestly: several models on every chart, and when they disagree, we say so
• Tides from a dedicated service, chart-datum accurate to the minute
• Sheltered water rated as sheltered water — no borrowed ocean swell
• A day reel to scrub the hours — sky, wind, sea and tide rolling together
YOUR CONDITIONS, NOT JUST OURS
Brief a sport with the wind, swell and tide you want and your read sits beside Session Scout's — or takes the headline. Describe a whole day and it watches your spots for it: a firm alert inside 24 hours, an early "shaping up" notice days out, worded loosely on purpose because forecasts that far out shift. Bottle a great day with "Days like this" and hear when it comes back.
WHEN CAN YOU ACTUALLY GO
Spots to Check lists every Good-or-better window across your spots, days ahead. Turn on Check my calendar and each one reads free, or busy until your day clears. Get There adds the drive — a live estimate and the time to leave.

HONEST BY DESIGN
No accounts. No tracking. The AI-written read is generated on your device and checked against the numbers — when it can't be verified we show nothing rather than something wrong. Ratings are a read of the forecast, not a verdict on you, your kit or the day. Read the water when you arrive — and if in doubt, don't go out.

This app has not received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
THE SKY IS THE PAGE
A spot opens on its sky — the hour's light, cloud and sea, or your photo. The read follows, then your sports, then the numbers.
THE SHUTTLE
A glass slider moves the hour. Drag from the centre, hold at the edge to keep rolling, let go and it springs back. Sky, cards, numbers and read move together.
HOME LEARNS THE HOUR
The same shuttle sits in the map's bar. Move it and your pins re-rate along the coast, the front card follows, and the wind map turns with it.
THE CARD IS THE SPOT
The front card wears its spot's sky. Tap it and the spot opens out of the card, already on your hour.
WIND YOU CAN READ
Arrows are as long as the wind is strong, and turn as the hour moves. The sea's are drawn full, the land's faint.
YOUR COAST, ABOVE THE BAR
Open the app and the spots nearest you are read for you: which sport, where, when, and whether you're free — your own brief first when it matches.
Also: Pro alerts now look three days out; place search follows the map; watch complications open their spot; Retry retries at once; pins wear their best sport; the forecast section is "Charts".
