Best weather app in Canada

No ads. No nonsense. Just weather. The recently updated radar map works great!

Application météo presque complète...

Très bonne application gratuite & fiable dans les prévisions. Dommage qu'elle ne soit pas encore compatible avec l'Apple Watch.... peut être dans un proche avenir..!!

Where is the watchOS widget?

Love the app. Would love it more if you added a watchOS widget.

Ad free!!

You got at no ad!

Lake ONTARIO not America

WTF why is a Canadian weather app using Lake America instead of Lake Ontario? Obviously this is NOT an Environment Canada weather app. Deleted immediately.

Weather app

I like it

Bad display for iPad users

Not optimized for iPad users: only has phone-style narrow display that requires a lot of scrolling. Information could easily be shown on entire screen if display was optimized.

Love the local notifications

I just wish I could customize them further. It’s not my jam to receive 4 notifications a day (2 for today’s temp and 2 for tomorrow’s). I wish I could tell the app to only alert me for TODAY’S weather, not tomorrow’s. I get why that’s helpful for some people, but let me toggle it offfffff 😭 and don’t ignore me WeatherCAN i know this would take 15 minutes to code so listen to ur user base and fix ur apppppppp

Good in parts

On the plus side, model used to generate forecasts is good, so it’s fairly accurate.

On the minus side, the user interface is amateur and visually unappealing, so it’s not pleasant to use.

And there’s a tiresome ‘message’ feature, with red badge notifications indicating unread items from a blog, and there’s no way to switch this off. The designers must know that only a small minority of users will want to read these blog posts and the rest of us will find these notifications irritating — but they evidently don’t care.

Worst radar.

Very poor radar. Jerky & halting. Look at WINDY app to see how it should be done.

No amount of rain indicated

No amount of rain indicated

Does Not Know Proper Location !

The App believes I am either 66km in one direction or 20km in another direction away from my actual location.

Not very useful for emergency weather alerts.

I had positive hopes for what this App promised but due to serious inaccuracies I have deleted it from my iPhone.

Bug dans carte

Quand je regarde la carte des precipitations, l’appli ferme et mon cell bug pendant 5 minutes 😠 ca m’empeche de travailler … iphone 11

Was great

What the heck happened. App including map worked great. NOW, my area of the map is BLOCKED. Can’t see what weather is heading to my city.

garbage

tells me to update but there's no update available. garbage app it used to be good like 6 years ago

Can’t use anymore

Can’t access this public service because my phone is too old. Come on Canada.

Botted reviews?

It’s the only accurate weather app in Canada and it’s pretty good. I wonder why reviews are bad

Weather

It alright

Inutile

C’est vraiment fun et pratique d’ouvrir le radar et de voir les 6 dernières heures et non ce qui est à venir ! C’est quand même drôle de réaliser qu’ils n’arrivent plus à bien prédire la météo alors ils te montre le radar de ce qui s’est passé plutôt que de : prédire.

Very inaccurate

The app starts the day with showing the sun at 7:30am or 8:30am, then moves the sun ahead 1-hour until the clouds finally clear. That’s not “forecast”.
