## On This Spot Reviews in Canada

### ***** "Fantastic"
I never cared about history or thought I did until I made this app with my historian friend. The value of remembering the past and digging deep into the stories that exist everywhere we look is impossible to explain… try it for yourself
-- chris on this spot, 2023-06-14

### **--- "Difficult to navigate"
So I’m trying to find information on the Japanese internment camp that was in my town and the only info I’m getting is from the internments during WW1
-- Dutchess Von Bonbon, 2022-05-04

### ***** "Great!"
I love this app, great for seeing the history of our local towns!
-- Pumpkiny21, 2021-12-16

### ****- "Check the addresses"
This is an interesting app which helps bring history alive. I look forward to using it in my travels. A word re accuracy is needed, though: for instance, in a city I know well, Red Deer, Alberta, the modern building which contains a legal firm (Warren Sinclair) is located at 4911 - 51 Street, but the historical Arlington Hotel was located at 4905 -51 Avenue.
-- Wording dervish, 2021-06-25

### ***** "Neat!"
Just a super interesting concept that keeps me learning as I wander town 😊
-- CdnDL, 2020-11-27

### ***** "Awesome free app!"
This app is fun for the whole family!
-- Pdwmcdonald, 2020-06-28

### **--- "Vae Victis"
The European settlers that made Canada were not colonizers. They were pioneers.
They created something from nothing. Woe to the conquered.
-- NativeCanadian69, 2019-08-10

### ***** "Pretty cool app"
Love the updates and the content! Thanks guys!
-- ThePhoenix14, 2019-08-02

### ***** "Great app!"
Cool app, cool idea - interesting way to explore a city. Some interface bugs but there’s a lot of fun information on it. Did Vancouver tours on the cheap because of it !
-- ModusVivendii, 2019-08-01

### ***** "Must have if you’re a fan of before and after"
I enjoy history and travel, and often try to imagine how places were in the past.  This app has it covered if you like to see how places have changed due to time and progress. I’ve learned about my home city as well as places I’ve visited and locations I intend to visit. New spots are being added all the time and I’m looking forward to the pasts that are to come.  Thanks and keep it up!
