### 1/5 — Trap

*2026-05-20, version 2.1*

19.99 year automatic subscription after 7-day “free” subscription. No thanks

### 3/5 — Need this on CarPlay

*2025-10-22, version 2.1*

App is good on its own. 
However for usage should be available on CarPlay. Supposed to be hands free and only need this app when driving. It would be like having Google Maps, but not available on CarPlay. Kinda defeats purpose.

### 4/5 — Great app but….

*2025-10-09, version 2.1*

This is a great and dat ma rich app. It would be made more useful if it could be used in Apple CarPlay. Or somehow embedded / plugged into Google Maps.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-09-27, version 2.1*

The app is great I love the new feature about seeing the boats in the direction it’s coming gives me an idea of how long it will take to wait for it. 10/10 recommend the app saves me so much time!

### 1/5 — Will Not Load

*2025-09-15, version 2.1*

Could not start app to test. Said my free 7 day trail period had ended (I just downloaded for first time) and asked for my $19.99 yearly payment fee BEFORE I could have my free 7 day trail period. I predict this app will be paid for by nobody.

### 1/5 — Can get this for free

*2024-03-23, version 1.0*

There are at least two websites that provide this information, plus FM 93.3.

### 1/5 — Unethical

*2023-08-21, version 1.0*

This information should be provided at no cost.

### 1/5 — Cost money?

*2023-06-28, version 1.0*

It is free of you do a google search? Developer, offer it for free and embed advertising?

### 1/5 — 2 dollars a month for data they get for free

*2023-05-27, version 1.0*

The government literally gives you this information for free on their website. Just Google search “welland canal status” and add it to your Home Screen.

### 1/5 — Scam!!!

*2023-02-01, version 1.0*

It is a scam. It lies to you, It advertises as a free app it isn’t, they want you to pay for either a monthly or yearly subscription might as well just get the one that’s underneath it in the App Store.
