## Retro Weather Reviews in Canada

### ****- "Why the changes???"
I loved the fact that you could see yesterday, and the records for today’s date. 
They’ve been missing for a few months now. What happened to them??? 

Otherwise, I love it!
-- Stylzz17, 2024-08-22

### ***** "Oh, yeah!"
Great job, Gary. Fun and functional.
-- mrym9m, 2024-04-05

### ***** "Just what I wanted!"
Looks great on the Apple TV, and as someone who was a kid when this style of infographics was around, it’s extremely nostalgic.
-- P_Badger, 2024-02-27

### ***** "Splendid!"
The only thing missing is the original channel also showed a page with a list of US cities and another page of Canadian cities.  Looking at those always brought comfort at -30 knowing it was warmer elsewhere in the world.
-- Offshore Racer, 2021-10-19

### ****- "Retro Weather App"
Love it. I wish I could make it a widget and put it on the far left home screen on my ipad. Thx Muchly! 😁
-- Doubledogg, 2021-08-03

### ****- "Love it"
BUT it has stopped working for the past few days. 😞
-- Peanut2shel, 2021-05-17

### ***** "Retro Weather App Rocks!"
This is kind of an update to a review I wrote about a month back, I like how it resembles an old cable TV channel that scrolls weather, traffic, and the local/regional news back in the 1980s/1990s (and I would love to see an app created for reading the local news like they had through Broadcast News or the Canadian Press). Anyway I just found out that there is a version that you can download for Apple TVOS, like the old cable TV channel however I feel the audio for the music should be reduced a bit as it’s very loud even when I have my TV’s volume turned down. Maybe there could be a volume control for the users to adjust to their preference? In addition, I think it would also be a good idea to include alongside the provincial temperatures the current weather conditions for other parts of Canada, the US and major world cities as well.

Other than that, keep up the good work!
-- RockinRobisCool, 2021-03-25

### ***** "Absolutely Great!"
Totally brings back the memories! Well done! Any future plans for widget support?
-- glennjamintot, 2021-03-21

### ***** "Memories of childhood weather!"
Love the app - thanks for adding the time at bottom screen with seconds - we used to use this channel as our official time check - useful for making sure your nifty new 1980's digital watch was properly synchronized to the correct time!  I look forward to checking it late tonight to see the hour skip ahead for daylight saving time kicking in.
-- Jono0523, 2021-03-13

### ***** "Significant progress with latest version!"
I must say that this latest release has fixed many accessibility issues regarding voiceover and iOS! It’s refreshing to see a developer who takes concerns to heart and does something about it! Quickly! BTW: love the WAYNE! 🦮😂🥂🇨🇦
-- JimDandy123, 2021-03-09

### ***** "Changed it to 5 star!!!"
Thank you for making it so it remembers the location! That was the last star needed to make this app a 5 star! 👍🏻
-- Hezzy1972, 2021-02-25

### *---- "Do Not Install on an IPhone!!.."
Terrible App!!.. Completely locks your phone up requiring factory reset!!..  Cost me almost a full day with Apple Support to get this virus off my phone!!
-- Country's the way we roll, 2021-02-22

### ***** "Nicely done!!"
Love the app.. really authentic duplication of the old channel. Plus the music is a nice touch. Couple suggestions for later versions.. adding a “favourites” list for weather locations you frequently visit. Also, would be interesting to have a page showing current hot and cold spots (via EC website). Great job!
-- Wxnut77, 2021-02-22

### ****- "Scrolling"
Love the throw back! It would be great if it scrolled through the screens in its own rather than having to scroll through manually.
-- Geikah, 2021-02-19

### ****- "Great concept, parts still rough"
This mainly relates to the Apple TV version as I can’t type a review there directly. The core concept is great. Down the line, it would be nice to have the audio be more location-specific (encompassing similar stations to CJNU like VOWR St. John’s or CFZM Toronto) or even just allow audio from other apps (like Apple Music) to keep playing in the background. There’s also a minor issue in the location selection screen on TV where the text disappears from the highlighted button.
-- JoshG_ca, 2021-02-19

### ***-- "Needs a little work"
I love the look and feel of the app. However it really needs to be updated ASAP or remember your location; a feature available even on free weather apps.  Like others, I would also like to be able to use it in portrait mode. Once those changes are made I can recommend it to friends.
-- tmarques_ld, 2021-02-19

### ***** "Amazing!"
Instant flash back to my childhood! This was the screensaver/soundtrack to my childhood. So glad you made this, saves a good piece of Winnipeg history! This was always on the tv. This app is accurate, flawless & stable! Thank you!
-- Kenorapilot, 2021-02-19

### *---- "Too slow"
I LOVE the idea and miss this old weather channel on my TV but every time I want to see the weather it gets stuck at the location selection screen. Not worth it.
-- Brianinwpg, 2021-02-18

### ***** "Love this app"
I love the music that goes with the app
-- bobross78, 2021-02-18

### ***** "I wish you could view in portrait"
This is a fun app except it doesn’t have the RM of Headingley in Manitoba on it which is a bummer.  It also is only viewed in landscape mode and it would be nice if they had a portrait as well since I don’t prefer to turn my phone every time I went to look at the weather.
