I like this app! 🌩️🌨️🌧️☀️

This is a good app and I like the old school layout. The only feature that I wouldn’t mind being added would be the option to switch Units between Metric and Imperial. It would be nice if you guys could add this in a future update/version.

Huge improvement

Amazing app. Replicates and improves on discontinued WeatherCan app. Don’t bother with the official app , use this instead.

Great weather app!

I really enjoyed this app. It brings back the feel of the old official app before the redesign. Highly recommended!

Reliable!

Thank you for making this app, I love it.
The ability to have favourite locations would be great and I’d love a couple widgets. Thanks for the app!

Thank you!

Thanks for replicating the old design. Don’t know what they were thinking with the current clumsy layout and their forced notifications. Fantastic job!
