What’s new

Version 1.5.0 · Updated July 17, 2026

Swell Intel has a whole new look. This update introduces a redesigned interface built for reading forecasts in daylight, with a clean light theme, a refreshed dark theme, and an appearance setting that can follow your device automatically. The forecast charts have been rebuilt around a fixed marker line. As you slide the chart, the conditions for the hour under the line update instantly, with breaking wave height, rating, swell, and wind shown together above the graph. The swell, energy, and tide charts now share the same interaction, so every chart works the way you expect. Current conditions now show swell, wind, and tide at a glance, along with water temperature and a wetsuit recommendation. A new Live view brings the webcam, buoy check, current weather, and swell map together in one place, so you can confirm the forecast against what is actually in the water. Daily forecast cards, the spot map, and the wave height chart map have all been updated to match the new design, and a new app icon completes the refresh. This update also includes performance improvements and many fixes throughout the app.
