Stay informed about local air quality! Protect yourself and your family from air pollution with our
near real-time air pollution data and health-based messaging. Access reliable, up-to-date
information about the air pollution near you provided by your state/local health department,
municipality, or local research institution.
You can also learn more about the different pollutants in your air and how it impacts your health
with many government resources included in the Love My Air app.
The Love My Air app displays predominately PM2.5 data but also provides notifications for other
air pollution events, such as Ozone Action Days and Wildfire Smoke Events. Main app features:
- Historical and near real-time air pollution data for the Colorado Front Range from locally-run sensors and state-run monitoring sites.
- Search and bookmark your favorite locations to receive notifications about the sites you care about.
- View a map of the near real-time air quality network.
- View historical graphs of air pollution for the previous day for each air quality site.
- Receive notifications of air quality alerts and health-based messages to reduce your exposure to air pollution.
Reliable, accessible air quality information: Air pollution data is provided by state and local
health departments, municipalities, and research institutions. Developed by the City and County
of Denver, the Love My Air app currently displays Air Quality data in the Denver metro area and
beyond.
AQI readings: The EPA’s NowCast Air Quality Index (AQI) provides hourly readings from air
quality monitors on a color scale. Because air quality can change during the day, you can
expect to see the NowCast AQI change, too. Raw values are available for some pollutants.
Health-based messaging: The Love My Air app shares messages for action steps you can take
to reduce your personal exposure to air pollution.
Access to educational resources: Resources for students, principals, nurses, teachers, and
community members to provide information about air pollution, including PM2.5. These
resources include toolkits developed by the Love My Air Program from the City and County of
Denver, and links to other government sites within Colorado and the US.
Push notification alerts: Air quality alerts are provided by the partner of your choice. Notifications
are forwarded from Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) for Ozone
Action Alerts and Smoke Events, and local air pollution alerts are from the sites and partners
you choose to follow.
Bilingual content: Most resources are available in English and Spanish.
Love this app, but 3 things may improve it. When you first sign up it would be nice to have an option to choose your favorites based on your location, the default is nowhere near me. Also, once you choose a favorite it would be nice if it shows up first when you open the app. Last would be an option to send feedback, so you get input from your users on what they like or don’t like. Great work so far though, thank you!
