AirGuard: Air Quality & Fires

Know the air before you step outside. Live air quality, nearby wildfires and smoke — in plain language, with no account required.

AirGuard turns air-quality data, wildfire information and smoke analysis into answers: what's happening, how serious it is, what it means for you, and what to watch next.

• Air quality, explained. A large AQI reading with a plain-language summary, the primary pollutant, and general guidance for outdoor activity — never a medical diagnosis.
• Wildfire & smoke nearby. Confirmed wildfire incidents and perimeters, plus mapped smoke plumes. Satellite fire detections are clearly labelled as informational.
• Forecast & alerts. A 24-hour air-quality forecast and optional local alerts for AQI thresholds, a new nearby fire, smoke onset, or a daily summary.
• A clean, fast map. Air-quality stations, fire layers and smoke layers you can toggle, with clustering so it stays readable.
• Works offline. The last readings are cached and clearly marked "Offline data" — nothing stale is ever shown as live.
• Private by design. No account. No third-party analytics or tracking SDK. Location is optional and used only while the app is open. Free to use, supported by clearly labelled Google AdMob ads.
• EN / FR / AR / ES, with full right-to-left layout for Arabic.
