"Discover the untold story of the extraordinary relationship between Canadas landscape, wildlife and people with this unique app." -David Suzuki
Canada has a rich natural history that dates back to the end of the last Ice Age. Its a land of astounding beauty, but much of it has been carefully shaped by the humans and wildlife that colonized it as the glaciers started to recede 15,000 years ago. Written by acclaimed 100 Mile Diet author J.B. McKinnon, Wild Canada also includes lush, high impact photography and panoramas from some of Canada’s most remote locations, immersive soundscapes, fly-throughs, interactive infographics that provide detail about Canada’s vast natural riches, and dramatic re-creations that showcase some of activities of the First Peoples who played a role in creating the country.
This is Canada like youve never seen it before.
Pros and cons of Wild Canada app for iPhone and iPad
Wild Canada app good for
Love how interactive it is, and how well it integrates with the show itself. It offers a whole new way to watch this show.
Great image, sound and video quality! Love it!
Great story. Worth the read. Its how an interactive book should be done. Looking forward to the series. If youre having trouble with the audio check out the mute button on the bottom right. Overall an excellent experience.
This Is Such A Great App!! I Cant Stop Reading Its So Interesting. Most Of The Stuff In Here I Never Knew!! Best App Ever!!
This is truly an amazing app. If you want to learn about Canada, look no further. With a brief introduction by David Suzuki and calming background sounds, this app represents the real, Wild Canada. Great pictures and very informative.
Totally worth the money, I love it. Its aesthetically stunning, better than many of its 10$ competitors
Really great app, well presented. I like the interactions and the exploration and the extra info in the charts. I enjoyed the material, especially about how First Nations maintained the fishing ecosystems and prairie burning.
I wish the panoramas had more interactivity to them, I think its a bit of a missed opportunity to really connect with the landscapes.
I would like to read more stories in the future, Id definitely keep coming back to the app!
Some bad moments
Dont understand why I get no sound! Tried deleting and reloading without success.
Checked my settings, no luck. I even got a geek to troubleshoot, again , no luck.
While the images are of extraordinary quality the lack of sound on iPad disqualifies this app.
Great pas,,, Wait !!! No so great, the lack of sound on IPad is a MAJOR issue.
Over 1/2 hour since I purchased this and there is still only one bar showing on the download wheel???
I think that the app is a little bit on the short side, but it is put together with lots of incredible photos and very interesting facts. I hope to see some updates come out in the near future!
By far my favorite book on Canada. The pictures are beautiful and the sounds are very peaceful.
