About this app

The Melbourne Pollen App provides Victorians with pollen forecasts generated using real-world pollen count data collected from our statewide network of monitoring sites.
You can use the Melbourne Pollen App to track your hay fever symptoms to figure out which pollen types are triggering your symptoms. Our notification system can alert you when grass pollen levels in your area are high, helping you plan your activities.

Since the November 2016 thunderstorm asthma event, Melbourne Pollen has worked closely with the Victorian Department of Health and Bureau of Meteorology to develop and implement a Thunderstorm Asthma forecast system to minimize the impact that any future epidemic thunderstorm asthma events may have on the community and the Victorian health system. Our notification system can alert you to forecasts of thunderstorm asthma in your area.


Key Features:

Accurate Pollen Forecasts: Get reliable predictions for a variety of pollen types, enabling you to identify and manage your hay fever triggers effectively.

Proactive Notifications: Receive timely alerts when grass pollen levels spike in your area, allowing you to plan your activities with confidence.

Thunderstorm Asthma Forecasts: Developed in collaboration with health authorities, the Thunderstorm Asthma forecast system helps protect the community and health system from potential future epidemics.

Contribute to Research: By participating in our surveys, you play a crucial role in advancing our understanding of pollen's impact on health, ultimately benefiting the wider community.

Comprehensive Allergy Management: From pollen counts to Thunderstorm Asthma alerts, we provide a complete suite of tools to help you navigate allergy season.

Don't let allergies hold you back! Download the Melbourne Pollen Count and Forecast App today and reclaim control of your well-being. Your comfort is our top priority! Together, let's create a healthier, more informed community.

Melbourne Pollen also conducts research aimed at better understanding the health impacts of the different types of pollen in our air. Completing the survey regularly helps us with this important work.

I love this app, but it is very disappointing that in the last update or since last pollen season the map (which by the looks of the screenshots has been changed entirely) has been locked unless you subscribe. Basically, unless you can afford to pay $50 per year, all you get is the first and 6th picture from the screenshots.

Am writing a new review because since it has been completely changed and reformatted, it is too hard to report symptoms. One day it works and the next it doesn't. I thought the idea of this app was for us to let you know what the weather is doing to us so you can collate data. The new format is a bit too much to understand also, it's a lot to try and understand. Please fix the glitches.

used to be a fantastic app but most of the basic features such as the map are now hidden behind a pay wall... there was no need to fix the app as it wasn't broken to begin with...at its very basic you can get the same basic information from the Bureau of Meteorology...

Hi, the free version of the app still provides pollen forecasts for grass and all other allergens (combined) and provides notifications and current and forecast AQ information, among many other features. Premium allows you to see forecasts for individual allergen species and longer range forecasts and the map feature. Thanks for your feedback.
