Parks Canada App Reviews

Requires location sharing to see map

Roger LL on

United States

I can’t get over the location requirement to browse the map. Why should you need to know exactly where I am (down to neighborhood) in order to plan my trip in another province? Why would a public agency not allow us to just get information about our parks system that we have paid for? Could not get past this requirement to use any desired app features. Will eagerly re-review once fixed.

Please restore “save my trip” and offline mode

I had started using this app to save my upcoming trip to Western Canada. After the update my app data for the trip disappeared, I can’t favorite parks anymore, and I can’t save my trip offline. I like the content but it is a bit slow to load certain pages. It seems like this is now an app viewer for web content. My understanding is that some parks have limited cellular so having an organized trip with offline content would have been very useful. I will need to rely on ebooks and other apps now to reference my trip.

Perfect for planning my trip to Canada this summer!

Great App…When it works

Hairyflea on

Canada

When I can use this app, it is great. The self guided tours are wonderful. The problem is if you use the app, then attempt to use it again, all you get is a blank white screen and one word: loading. It goes on like that forever. Sometimes it takes until the next day before you can use the app again. I wish the self guided tours were available on the regular website, if this issue cannot be addressed.

Almost… :(

Every attempt takes me to a “Page Not Found” Error 404. Really want this app to work… I’m rooting for it but it’s crap currently.

Pointless app

Useless app, that redirects you to the awful website. If only parks Canada’s site was like Québec’s SEPAC site.

Bring back the trails map!

Smook5 on

Canada

I used to use this app all the time to choose trails for our family while in various parks, as it used to be super easy and I could do it quickly. Now that that feature is gone, I can’t think of any other reason why I’d need the app, if all it’s ever going to do is take me to the website. Please bring the trails map back!!

Map inaccurate 06/08/21

You still need to update some of the pins on the map. Some are missing and last I checked “Beaver Pond” was not a National Park.

Travail de fonctionnaires

Difficile à naviguer, pas vraiment d’informations utile ergonomie catastrophiqueTout juste bon a remplacer une brochure papier. Très décevant.

Booking / Reservation

When can the app allow us to have the same capability as the website to reserve camp sites? Otherwise I don't find the app useful.
