2024-07-26	Ja*****	This app is not informative 😕 It is out of date and very vague. The Alberta government should look at the BCWildfire app-not perfect but much more informative and up to date.

2024-07-23	Pa*****	Wild fires are not updated in a timely manner. Evacuation orders are announced for communities and yet still no active fires are shown on the maps. If one needed an update on fire locations it would be to late and you could be potentially trapped with no escape route. DO NOT RELY ON THIS APP FOR YOUR SAFETY.

2024-07-23	Me*****	Awful. This app should be controlled by people IN Alberta. It does not give up-to-date information about fires, especially when they're needed for advisories or evacuations. Do not depend on this app for anything in your local area; go to Facebook.

2024-05-11	Ch*****	Last year this app was great! This year it keeps saying 2 new fires for 24 hours everyday (which we had at least 4). Also it doesn't even have all the fires marked

2023-08-20	Je*****	Worst app in the world can't search any fires can't see any fires people look at the BC ap now that's an app shows you how big the fire is shows you the name of places Alberta map shows an orange dot like for example look at Yellowknife there ain't even a fire dot near it and then everything is like numbers instead of names come on Alberta really that's how people are keeping track of fires near their cities or towns.

2023-05-19	Ke*****	Would be nice if there were highways and major towns on the map. Have to guess where you're driving to or in. Not very useful if travelling.

2023-05-13	Sp*****	Only works when there are few users. The website is no different leading me to think that the server can't handle the traffic or their subscription is limited to a number of users. The issue is that this makes the app useless, as when the wildfire risk is high, the app and website don't work.

2023-05-08	Re*****	Just bring back the old app. It was easier to use and didn't take 30 seconds to load. You are better off bookmarking the government website in your browser and just going there instead.

2023-05-05	Sa*****	Map takes forever to load. When it finally loads, there's no fires reported even though it's smokey in my area and I know earlier today 80+ fires have been reported for AB. This app is not functional.
