## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — One star review rating

*2026-03-30*

New update that was released is horrible having everything combined at once, prefer the original version.

### 1/5 — Not so good anymore

*2024-10-18, version 3.6.1*

This app used to work great but not so much anymore, now it loads and then immediately shuts down.

### 1/5 — App unreliable.Shuts down on loading

*2024-06-14*

App loads then immediately shuts down. Some data spotty and so unreliable. Would like to get some directional information from the various teams that control water flows such as we plan to ramp flows by how much over the following “x” # of days

### 1/5 — Used to be good now it’s useless. No support.

*2024-05-17*

Used to be a good app. Now it is useless. Just shuts down after opening it. I’ve deleted and reinstalled it. I’ve restarted devices. Everything possible and it still just shuts down in a few seconds. Making it completely useless. It’s too bad because i use the information often.

### 1/5 — App shuts down within seconds of being opened

*2023-02-25*

What happened, used to work, now shuts down within seconds of starting up. Is everyone seeing this problem. No update recently, and all other apps on my phone are working fine.

### 1/5 — Somethings wrong

*2018-07-29*

Where did all the station data go? This was an awesome app but something has gone wrong and now I can’t see any station data across the whole province.

### 2/5 — Help

*2026-05-09*

Recently joined, colours and size lof print selection makes reading data and advisories very difficult.

### 2/5 — Recent Problems

*2022-06-23*

Love the app, but anyone else having issues with it loading properly and displaying the graphs/info, etc recently?

### 2/5 — Ice Observation Report

*2021-03-30*

What good is an ice observation report if it isn’t up to date?

### 2/5 — Very Buggy

*2016-06-20*

I like the new look and feel, but the app is barely useable. It hangs and crashes constantly, and is very slow to sync.

## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great new app!

*2016-06-25*

Notifications are great, as is having all the pertinent data in one place. User friendly, can look at individual areas/stations and shows everything from snow to drought. Well done!

### 5/5 — A government-made app that's good??

*2015-10-01*

This is the greatest thing to ever come out of any provincial or federal government in Canada. Five stars.

### 5/5 — Rain dance Coordinator

*2014-11-02*

Very useful for people in Saskatchewan!

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2014-06-23*

Easy to navigate, tons of information.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2014-06-21*

This app has tons of information that I can see about the rivers, fantastic job!

### 5/5 — So helpful

*2014-06-20*

After last years flood it is super nice to have this and be alerted fast when river levels change.😊

### 5/5 — Great organization of a lot of data!

*2014-06-19*

Really useful way to show all this up-to-the-minute data. Definitely needed.

### 5/5 — Great alerts

*2014-06-19*

Lots of useful information, really like the alerts and warnings. Very helpful.

### 4/5 — Good APP

*2020-10-20*

It is a good APP with valuable information.  It needs an additional upgrade.   The app is able to send notifications of river flows from
Dams.  However there is no such option for the various stations.  It would be appreciated if the APP would send alarms based on river levels at the upstream or downstream stations based on user’s selection.  This way one can proactively plan response to flood events.   Thanks
