May 16, 2025
Why's it Free?
Swellify was created with just one mission: to help you surf more and improve faster. Only trouble was, to use Swellify you had purchase a subscription and that was getting in the way.
But ... not anymore! It's official – as of today ✨ Swellify is now completely free ✨
Yupppp. That's right. No paywalls. No Subscription. No limits. Just...
- ✅ Accurate, NZ specific five-day forecasts at over 420+ surf spots
- 📈 Personalized surf ratings for every hour of every day
- 📫 Daily surf summaries for all your favourite spots every morning
- 📲 Notifications so you never miss an epic surf
- 🙌 All – for FREE
So, whether you’re chasing your first green wave or refining your cutback Swellify is here to help — no strings attached.
How's it Free?
Simply put, I believe in Swellify's mission so thoroughly, I wanted to remove any barriers that might be standing in the way.
I’ve been self-funding Swellify from day one, and I’ve been lucky enough to build it without needing outside investment or venture capital. That means no pressure to put up paywalls, push upgrades, or lock the best features behind a subscription.
Instead, I believe in giving you real value first. Helping you surf more, improve faster and fall even deeper in love with surfing ❤️ that’s the goal. If Swellify helps you get there, that’s already a win..️
Down the line, there might be optional extras or other ways to support the app — but for now – no strings, no catches.
So go surf more, worry less — Swellify's got your back 💪
One More Thing

Oh, and if it's been a while since you've opened the app, make sure to update to the latest version! (that's 0.3.7)
I can't wait to see where Swellify takes you and hear about all your epic days in the ocean 🏄♂️🌞
See you in the lineup,
– Tobias, founder and creator of Swellify
