### 1/5 — Lake Erie Marine Conditions

*2016-09-09*

I'd like a refund. This is the worst Marine forecast App ever. No wave predictions, no report for Maumee Bay to Avon.

### 1/5 — Rip. Off

*2016-08-12*

App worked for 2 weeks then could not get waves heights I would not buy

### 2/5 — Wasted my Canadian money

*2020-08-05*

No data for Georgian bay at all other than what you can make out on a zoomed in map, useless for Canadian boaters. Unless your in American waters 100% of the time. I imagine this app is perfect for American Great Lakes boaters.

Update: thank you to developer Jeff for his care and response. I’ll hold on to app to see if north shore data becomes available. Maybe contact transport Canada and environment Canada for information regarding the north shores of the Great Lakes. I understand U.S. environmental monitoring agencies treat Canada like it is a void between The main 48 states and Alaska. look at any weather map, Canada looks like an ocean on U.S. weather maps. I believe adding this data would greatly increase the value and user friendliness.

**Developer response:** Hello,

I’m sorry the APP did not meet your needs. I just looked and NOAA does not provide nearshore data for Georgian Bay. If I had a way to refund you I would but Apple does not provide a mechanism for this yet. I have a free version (AD supported) of this APP on the AppStore for people to try before the purchase. I’m afraid it’s too late for that. If Georgian Bay data becomes available in the future, I will be sure to add it to the APP.

I like it as a quick look at the lake at large, also how the island affects the waves.  Very helpful!

### 5/5 — Great app!

### 5/5 — Captain Shortbus Fishing Team

*2016-09-26*

So far it has been very helpful getting me the information about lake conditions before I set up to go out on the lake !

I like it !

### 5/5 — Great!

*2016-07-19*

I am able to view the lake without having to drive to it first! 
Nice being able to see projected forecasts, wave heights, wind speeds, and lake temperature, but the lake camera is the best feature!
