About this app

Window Close tells you in one line whether it is safe to open your window right now.

It combines real-time PM10 and PM2.5 levels with yellow dust, ozone and Korea Meteorological Administration weather data. No need to interpret numbers - just look for "Open the window" or "Keep it closed".


■ Open or Close

Most apps stop at showing you numbers. Window Close weighs air quality against rain and wind, then tells you whether now is a good time to air out your home.


■ Real-Time Air Quality

- PM10, PM2.5, yellow dust, ozone, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide
- Grading based on Korea Environment Corporation and WHO reference levels
- Official AirKorea monitoring station data
- Shows the nearest station and its distance


■ Forecast

Three-day PM10 forecast for today, tomorrow and the day after, plus hourly changes.


■ Weather

Temperature, feels-like, daily high and low, humidity, chance of rain, hourly and weekly forecast.


■ 7 Home Screen Widgets

PM10 widget, PM2.5 widget, weather widget, combined air quality and weather widget, and clock widgets in small and large sizes.
Adjust background transparency, text size and color so you can check everything without opening the app.


■ Alerts
