Leave a Review Paku for PurpleAir
Usually, it’s great
I love purple air, especially doing wildfire season. And I look looking at the air and the rest of the world also.
But it doesn’t seem to be working right today. I am 23 miles away from the forest fire and it has been quite smoky here. But the dot near my tiny town shows green and that it is at 20. But reading the text it says air quality is 158. That is a big difference. I live in Northern California and I looked up to Oregon where I know there are a lot of fires, and showing green today also. So please fix this. Oherwise I would give it five stars.Show lessDeveloper Response
That’s a really strange issue - I wonder if the map averaging period was set to a long duration and caused this? If you see it again it’d be really helpful if you could send a screenshot!Awesome for air quality monitoring
I downloaded this app a few days ago because of the wildfires in Eastern Oregon/Western Idaho and I'm amazed at how accurate and precise it is with these sensors. The DEQ only has one or two sensors in my area but using Paku, I'm able to get a much more accurate idea of how the air quality REALLY is. The ONLY thing that I would like to see with this are different map layers and the wind directions on the map view. If youre concerned about air quality, especially during wild fire season, this is the app to get!Show lessLove this app!
I used this app a while back, and I am so pleased to see how far it’s come. It works very well and is very pleasing to use (visually and functionally) vs. Purple Air. It’s much easier to customize and decipher based on your needs. You can also have it less cluttered when you zoom in and out, which is great. I use this app a lot lately due to the forest fire smoke around me, it’s a life saver! I appreciate the wonderful support team and their help, so grateful to have this app available to use. Thank you!Show less
