### 5/5 — Accurate and clean

*2026-06-12*

Simple, clear UI. Actual weather station data instead of big name interpolation

### 2/5 — Needs an update

*2023-01-02*

This used to be a terrific app, one of the few that actually used Canadian weather data for Canadian weather reporting. Sadly it hasn’t been updated in 5 years and now it crashes when you load the radar screen (Environment Canada has changed its implementation). Tbh I’m surprised it’s lasted this long

### 5/5 — Great Alternative to WeatherCAN

*2022-10-13*

Now that Clouds and Meteo are no longer in operation, this is one of the few remaining apps that uses Environment Canada data exclusively. It’s by far the best one, and I find it to be far more visually appealing that the official WeatherCAN app. Even though there haven’t been any updates in the past few years, the app still works perfectly. Thank you to the developer for continuing to run this app, it is much appreciated!

### 5/5 — Meteo replacement

*2022-10-07*

Glad I found this app after environment Canada decided to scrap their meteo app.  Too bad there's been no updates in years. Would love to see some additional features and customization.

### 4/5 — Simplicity at its best.

*2022-01-31*

Love this app. Simple and clean UI. Makes good use of Environment Canada data which is ideal for us Canucks. Dark mode please!

### 1/5 — Sucks don’t buy it will crash eventually.

*2021-08-07*

Crashes every time I open it.
Was good though but now I can’t use it.

### 1/5 — crashes with latest iOS

*2021-08-07*

Crashes on opening with iOS 14.7.1 on both iPhone and iPad. Please fix.

### 5/5 — Accurate and Reliable

*2021-02-18*

The best app for weather in Canada. Nobody else comes close to their updates and accuracy.

### 5/5 — Works well

*2020-12-11*

Simple and clean, all the EC info with no bloat

### 4/5 — Great Canadian Weather App

*2018-09-06*

Once upon a time I was browsing the App Store for a Canadacentric weather app with a notification centre widget, preferably of a minimalist design. Well, there were a  ton of massive behemoth 100mb weather apps with a million ridiculous features I’d never use (I just want to check the temp and get a basic forecast!), mostly US centric, and the few Canadian offerings were either hideously designed or had no widget option. 

I was about to give up and stick with the stock iPhone weather app and a Safari web clip linked to Environment Canada when I needed an accurate local forecast. Then I stumbled across  Celsius 2 (lol..something like that anyway). 

It has everything I need in a weather app. Local forecast direct from Environment Canada, minimalist design and an NC widget. It even has an in app link to EC’s map and precipitation radar for your area. (I rarely use it but it’s a nice extra). All my weather needs satisfied in a slim and elegant package. IMO the best Canadian weather app available. Highly recommended !

**Developer response:** Hi there, thanks for the kind words.  I know your review yesterday pointed out a short outage, thanks for making the revision though.  There was an issue with Environment Canada's data source but it is in the process of being resolved now.  In the future, just drop me an email if you have any questions.

Cheers!
