We've recently launched a new "home" for Surfline.
The new homepage makes it easier than ever to check cams, plan your next surf, catch up on content, and access the Surfline shop
What's new? Top to bottom
- Cam carousel. See live cams at your top spots, as soon as you open the app
- Forecast & Outlook. Compare forecasts, side-by-side, to quickly identify where is working & when.
- Stories. A preview of the existing News tab. View recent articles, stories, and videos.
- Shop. Find surf essentials like wetsuits, boards, fins, and more in the shop.
Cam carousel
Your favorite spots (in the order you have configured) are the first thing you see, with auto-playing cams in a horizontal carousel. Where we don't have cams, we will show a satellite image of the spot.
Reorganize your favorites to make the most of the new homepage
Head to your account settings and hit Favorites. Here is the direct link: https://www.surfline.com/account/favorites
You'll also see Edit Favorites buttons after clicking View All on either the Cam Carousel or the Forecast Outlook tools.
Bringing your top 5 spots to the top of your favorites list will bring the new homepage to life.
Forecast Outlook
The home screen will only show your top 5 favorites. Hit View All to see compare forecasts for every spot in your favorites list.
We show a rating color for the morning, afternoon and evening with a single surf height reading for the day. There is a grey line behind each spot which will tell you whether the surf height is increasing, decreasing or holding.
Sub-region filtering
After hitting View All from the Cam Carousel or Forecast Outlook, you can now filter the favorites shown by geographical region.
If going on a trip, or honing in on some promising conditions, get rid of the favorites you have saved elsewhere. You can select multiple sub-regions.
The sub-regions that show are based on the favorites you have saved.
Stories
Scroll below the Cam Carousel & Forecast Outlook to find our article covers over a black background, which will open a mini webpage for you to read in full.
Hitting View All will take you to the library of categorised articles you'll be familiar with.
