## Description

Dust is an offline unofficial guide for Burning Man and regional burns. Find events by day, category, or theme camp, or search; discover art and theme camps by listing or search; and map their locations. Save favorites for quick access.

Show nearby events and camps, get notified when a favorite event is about to start, drop pins for bikes, camps, and friends, and even browse DJ sets from Rock Star Librarian. It works offline. Note: Burning Man location information is hidden until a week before the event starts.

## Review summary

Users praise Dust for its accurate location tracking, useful near-me and favorites features, clean design, and offline reminders, making Burn planning and navigation easier. They also value privacy, with no data collection or ads. However, many reviews point to reliability issues, including frequent crashes and an iOS bug where the location permission button can be hidden, plus a lack of accessible in-app support and some data gaps (missing camps). Overall, Dust is a highly useful, well-designed app that would benefit from stability and improved support.

### Cons
