Ratings and reviews

Great help, especially during fire season. Edit: Suddenly I am getting dozens of alerts at the same time, for cities up to 50 miles away, leading to the phone beeping for a minute straight. Can't turn it off either. Why would the app alert me for all the cities around, and why individually for each one? Edit: the issue was apparently fixed.

I liked this because it had a widget that displayed the air quality in my area in the notification bar on my phone so I could always see it and keep an eye out for changes and I got regular notifications. Not sure why but those stopped and I can't get them back on. All notifications are on in the app so I'm not sure what the problem is. I've uninstalled and redownload it and it didn't change. Oh well, I guess. Other than that the app works as it should. Just not for me

Very helpful. I like to open the windows at night, but I am in the "sensative" group for air quality. Canadian wild fire smoke was a problem last year and seems to be again, so I downloaded the app so I can plan better. I found it easy to select the reporting station I wanted. I chose one run by the state EPA rather than a private station, but the map shows all the close monitors so I can see how variable the readings are.
