SmartSurf Companion · rider-side app

Watch what matters.
Know when it changes.

Use the Android Companion to report the rider’s position. Add a SmartSurf Tracker, currently on preorder, to give the board its own GPS position. SmartSurf brings those positions together with available spot conditions and your Watchdogs.

Before, during and after

Follow the whole session.

Set up your spots and profile once, then return to the information that matters to your ride.

01 / Before

Let a Watchdog keep checking.

Choose a saved spot and a wind or wave range. SmartSurf checks available spot data on a background schedule and records meaningful changes.

02 / During

Keep rider and board in view.

View reported positions, device status and supported alerts. When two devices are paired, SmartSurf can evaluate separation from fresh GPS fixes.

03 / After

Keep your record.

Review recorded routes, log a session and add feedback. Your profile, equipment and session history stay together.

What the evidence can tell you. A forecast is a prediction. Verification needs a fresh, usable observation; local patterns need sufficient history. Missing information stays unavailable.

SmartSurf Watchdog · condition monitoring

Set what matters.
Let SmartSurf keep checking.

Choose a saved spot and a wind or wave range. SmartSurf checks available spot data on a background schedule and records when a condition or forecast window changes.

Enabled Watchdog alerts can arrive in the app or by email. A Watchdog depends on the sources available for that spot; stale or missing evidence stays visible. Adaptive polling and event-driven monitoring are still in development.

An active rule, not another forecast tab.

  • Spot. Select a place you have saved.
  • Condition. Choose the wind or wave range you care about.
  • Change. SmartSurf checks available data and records supported state changes.
  • Delivery. Configure supported app and email alerts.

Current Watchdogs monitor saved spot conditions. They do not monitor every possible session or environmental signal.

SmartSurf Copilot

Ask by text today.
Voice is in development.

Ask SmartSurf about a saved spot and the conditions available for it. Responses can use current spot context and rider information where available.

A hands-free Voice Copilot is being developed for spoken updates and questions during a session. Wake-word activation, conversational voice, offline speech commands and voice-triggered SOS are not released.

“What changed at my spot?”

SmartSurf can explain the context returned for a saved spot and say when important information is unavailable.

Example question only. The answer depends on current source availability and account context.

SmartSurf Companion · Android

Your phone reports the rider’s position.

Link the Companion app to your SmartSurf account and use your Android phone as a rider location source.

Allow location access and check that a fresh position arrives before setting out. Background reporting depends on permissions, battery settings and connectivity. Spoken Companion alerts and hands-free Voice Copilot interaction are still in development.

Direct APK download for ARM64 Android devices. Android may ask you to allow installation from your browser.

Optional hardware · preorder

Give your board its own GPS.

A SmartSurf Tracker reports independently of your phone. Choose one for a board or a Rider + Board Duo for two dedicated devices.
