User Reviews

I think this is helpful in a heavy prescribed fire area, if the info is updated/added. The 3 & 4 notifications in 10 seconds for the same fire is too much. There's no 1 app that gives everything. use this in conjunction with other apps for fire information, not a stand-alone.

I thought this would be the app to track wildfires but it doesn't even show them. It only shows the AQI in a few cities (not even close to all in CA). Please fix this. I know it might be in beta or something but fires are the most important part of this app. Otherwise the UI looks like this could finally be the app to keep for fire tracking.
