  • Nice visual layout

    Simple and easy to understand. I am unable though to find any information on how this collects data or determines its pollen counts, which tends to make me a little doubtful of its methodology and accuracy.
  • Inadequate Index

    I’m way beyond disappointed in this allergy index app. It keeps putting my area off the west coast of Africa. When I find my location, it’s the simplest of Google maps w/ color coded allergy severity. Not helpful at all. For all I know I may be using it incorrectly, but w/o a clear menu or instructions, who knows.🤷🏼‍♀️

    Thank you for the reply on how to set the location. For some reason location services is not finding my location even when I give it permission. However, it did work fine on another phone. If I go into maps, it does show my correct location. So I am not sure why it is putting me off the coast of Africa.

    I appreciate your updated review. I am looking into this and hope to release an update ASAP which should help with this.
  • Pine Pollen never reported

    I have Pro version for over a year and one of the worst pollens, pine pollen is never reported. This is the really thick green stuff that covers everything and is the worst allergy for myself. I am miserable for several weeks that it is out. I purchased the Pro app to help me track this pollen but have never seen it reported!

  • Four stars!

    I really like this app. It tells me what the allergy forecast will look like in such a nice, empathetic way, which I really appreciate. It’s like hearing it from a friend instead of an app! :) I, like other reviewers, wish it had more local allergens. In Tucson, AZ we have Palo Verde trees which are a huge local allergen: they bloom, I cry. I also know that it would be really hard to find out local allergens from everywhere this app serves tho.

  • helpful

    I downloaded this because I thought it would be quite helpful to have a more clear understanding of which allergies produce which symptoms in me. I gave to agree with a previous reviewer that this app would be miles better, if it had space for quick note about symptoms, or even a multiple choice list to note symptoms. it would be incredibly helpful to be able to note for today it’s itchy eyes, yesterday was a scratchy throat and last week it was setting off my asthma.
    all that being said, it is helpful and interesting to see which allergens are most prevalent on any given day.

  • Pollen review

    This app is the best app I have used. Having issues with pollen I resort to this website for up to date information. I recommend this app to anyone sensitive to pollen
  • It’s pollen count doesn’t match allergy centers and symptoms

    Does it update correctly? It will say pollen is low but there will be high wind, people sneezing everywhere and complaining of itching red eyes. Then the app will note three different pollens around at the same time showing a green map of low pollen. It oddly doesn’t match local allergy centers with their count. There’s no way to measure the amount of pollen it notes is around.

  • Stopped updating

    I have enjoyed using this app, but in the past week or more, it has not been working like it did in the past. It does not show anything but whether the pollen count is low, medium, etc. In the past, I have received temperatures and more and 5 days of forecasts. As of this morning, I can only see for today and that is only green for low pollen. Is this app going away? As of 1/1, this app is back to working like it did when I first downloaded it. Thank you to the developer for reaching out to me. I hope that it will continue to work properly for me. I have been pleasantly pleased with this app in the past.

    My apologies for this. The problem should now be resolved. If you continue to experience problems, it would be great if you could e-mail me at jake@jrustonapps.com. The app is still running and being actively maintained :)
  • Just ok, need to be able to add if meds are taken

    I need an app to track my seasonal allergies and if/when I take my medication. This does not allow for that. Also, I would like to be able to see the pollen count in my diary entry, not just how I logged I felt. It also only gives the option to log today and yesterday. So if you missed two days in a row you are SOL. I also just went back in to try and tinker around more but my diary entries are gone and when I add them again they do not show up.

    Thank you for your feedback. I'm going to look into making some changes to improve the kinds of situations you describe.
  • Crap and inaccurate

    App writs it’s own positive reviews.
    I have been keeping watch on the pollen for over a month. Every day I open the app the app is saying the whole country has absolutely zero pollen. AND ITS FALL!
    There is no way every day straight for a month has no pollen. Fall is pollen season.
    Do not go by what this app says. Call the nws or the epa for air quality information.
    This app busted itself lying.
