### 1/5 — Don’t work

*2026-05-21, version 6.15.0*

App doesn’t work anymore. You can connect to any air purifier, it keeps saying there is a problem with the WiFi

### 1/5 — Completely incorrect

*2026-05-01, version 6.15.0*

I had been using this app religiously and was happy. However the last 3 weeks the pollen forecast has been showing as significantly lower than the reality. It conflicts with all other apps and my symptoms. I won’t be using anymore. If you want accuracy, I’d go somewhere else.

### 1/5 — 亮黄色数字都看不清

*2026-03-16, version 6.15.0*

亮黄色看不清数字

### 5/5 — Best air quality app for China

*2026-02-25, version 6.15.0*

Air quality data in China is often unreliable, but the numbers in this app are generally the most accurate when compared to other data sources, my personal air quality sensor, and visibility. The app also offers historical data for different locations going back years, which is super helpful to see changes over time.

### 3/5 — Incorrect AQI but good design

*2026-02-05*

I compared current AQI of Mumbai and Pune with couple of other apps and found that it is showing different values.

### 1/5 — This is a scam development team

*2026-01-01, version 6.15.0*

The developers lack integrity. Previously, it was a buy-to-play model, where a single payment exempted users from ads. Later, perhaps feeling the revenue was too low, the developers removed the app, renamed it, and re-released it, switching to a subscription model. The previously purchased apps are now unusable.

### 1/5 — All their measurements are inaccurate

*2025-12-24*

I’ve cross verified with 10 other website. All the giving similar value but this is the only application giving unnatural value. 20 AQI in tier 2 city in India in winter - you gotta be kidding me

### 1/5 — App not providing updated info.

*2025-12-03, version 6.15.0*

Sent you an email regarding the issue. You didn’t responded. The air quality is stuck at 55 since last month’s. Thats abnormal.

### 5/5 — The App has switched to subscription mode 这个 app 变成了订阅模式

*2025-11-04, version 6.15.0*

更新之后变成了订阅模式，如果你不想每年付 $0.99 就不要升级。
This app has switched to subscription mode and costs $0.99 per year.

### 3/5 — Currently not working

*2025-10-18, version 6.14.16*

It keeps connecting but nothing happens
