Leave a Review Paku for PurpleAir
Great viewer for purple air
I love the new Lock Screen widgets! So helpful during fire season to have the local PA sensor right on my Lock Screen where I can keep an eye on the trending direction as winds shift.
Would love an Apple Watch app with complication in the future!GVDC_88
Not so great
I use to be able to click and immediately see our air quality now it starts load and takes 10 or minutes to register no bueno I need to know the air quality cause I have to shut down my home abd turn air purifiers on because of fire smoke!Aromamedeo
Much more accurate
The weather app on my iPhone said the air quality one particular morning was 62. It was so smoky, I couldn’t even see clearly across the field. The smell of smoke was strong. The rising sun, red. I then checked Paku, which said the AQI was 162! Huge difference!Kinjosan
Great App! Could a north arrow and scale be added?
The app is great and provides all information needed. I think that a scale in the lower left corner that would allow distance from your waypoint would be handy as would a north arrow.skohottentot
Extremely useful!
This is a great app for viewing air quality and I like being able to easily see my home purple air sensor readings on the widget! I do wish the messages varied between indoor and outdoor sensors because the messages can be misleading (for example, a couple of days ago the my indoor sensor was reading a pm2.5 of ~ 15 while all the nearby sensors outside were showing pm 2.5 of over 300 due to wildfire smoke, and the message for my sensor said “it’s a great day to be outside!”). However, this is a pretty minor complaint since you can easily see all the sensors on the map, and overall the app works really well.Show lessc4aa
Air Quality at it’s best
Just installed Paku and it already out performs other air quality apps. The information is clear, concise and current. The map portion of the app really makes it clear where locations are found. The prominent purple air stations are identifiable and easy to find. Best air quality app on the market, so far.Show lessGAJ SLT
Very useful
Paku is useful and easy to use. I use it on my IPhone. I wish that I could see both pm2.5 and pm10 at each detector when I click on the detector on the map, and not just pm2.5. When there are fires within 30 miles the pm10 often dominate, but I can’t see the reading on Paku. I think that is possible with the laptop client.Show lessghjkfdryhb
Tells you everything you need to know, in real time
I am one of those folks who found Paku after AirNow updated their website to the point I found it unusable. But this app is even better!! Very accurate, real time info and very easy to zoom in and out to see what’s going on. 5 stars easyjett head
Fantastic app
This app is much easier than dealing with the PurpleAir website and has an app for phone and for your comptuer, which is great! I find it's really useful for planning when and where to do activities when there's smoke around. Also helpful to know when to get ready to close the windows to try and keep smoke out.Show lessdudiak
Great App
It boggles the mind that Purple Air doesn’t have its own app, but Paku fills the need perfectly with a well-designed lean interface. The widgets are great. Would love an option to view a temperature layer on the map (or have temp be primary in the widget). All that temp data is not getting much use (though including it in the detail view a particular station is appreciated).Show lessFrank White 123
