Reviews of BC Wildfire Service

Leave a Review BC Wildfire Service
  • Lots of Information

    I use this app regularly and find the details on each fire super helpful. The map always loads a little slow at first, but seems to function well after the first few seconds.
  • Works great!

    Lots of information and appreciate the notifications.
  • Well done!

    I rely heavily on this app and the information resources it provides.

    This year, my usage involved situations where I was staying in areas under Active Evacuation Alerts.

    I particularly appreciated the feature that allows me to record my places of interest for push notifications.

    I also tried the "Save an Incident" feature and found it very useful.

    One suggestion I have is to consider developing a version of the app optimized for low network scenarios. I often found that when I had only one bar of signal (which was common), the app's overhead made it difficult to refresh information.

    While this may be a challenging requirement, it presents an opportunity for improvement.

    Overall, well done! The ongoing evolution of the app and its services is a testament to quality public service. Thank you!
