## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Worthless, can’t add cities not already on

*2019-10-26, version V1.0.7*

No way to add cities that aren’t already on the list. Useless.

### 1/5 — useless

*2018-11-08, version V1.0.6*

we are having heavy smoke in sonoma, and medium in danville. the app says both have good air quality.

### 1/5 — Horrifying ad

*2018-11-01, version V1.0.5*

Pop up ad telling me how to carry a gun!

### 1/5 — Not for iPhone XS

*2018-10-23, version V1.0.5*

Kept on crushing after started to use on iPhone XS.

### 1/5 — Nice Interface

*2017-10-21, version V1.0.2*

Can't judge the accuracy yet but the interface is clean and simple.

UPDATE: Latest version constantly throws up ads. Basically unusable. Too bad.

### 1/5 — Does not show any data for San Francisco

*2017-10-13, version V1.0.1*

Great user interface and look. But unable to perform the sole purpose of the app. Give the Air Quality Index. Screen is blank for San Francisco. I guess it's back to using airnow.org

### 1/5 — Does not appear to be accurate

*2017-10-13, version V1.0.1*

Wildfires north of Oakland, CA have a smoky haze over us right now. This app shows an AQI of 82 while every other online monitor shows 158.

### 2/5 — Love it

*2018-08-19, version V1.0.5*

I really like this app., since I live on the Pacific Northwest,, it’s pretty accurate, my only issue is it will not let me add my home town. Can you fix that please.

### 2/5 — App stopped working!

*2018-07-20, version V1.0.5*

I only use the app during fire season in the NW, and this summer it has stopped functioning. It constantly shows “hazardous” air quality, no matter what the conditions outside.  I upgraded to the no-ad version, and that didn’t help. The last two summers it has worked fine, and I depended on it.  I’ve written the developer twice and got no response. I prefer using an app to going online to check the air quality index, so I’m sorry to see this one bite the dust.

### 5/5 — Accurate and useful

*2020-08-21, version V1.0.7*

I’ve had this app for two years in the SF Bay Area.The first year I didn’t find that helpful. This year in the midst of the fires, it’s been consistently accurate with the Bay Area Air Quality Management website with more local access than the other app I use. It’s been very helpful for my decisions about going outside, using recirculating air, using my air purifier. There are zero ad pop ups.
