### 1/5 — Useless

*2014-08-27, version 1.0.7*

Couldn't get it to work at all.

### 1/5 — Don't waste your money

*2014-08-25, version 1.0.7*

Worthless app. Functionality is confusing at best and overall has no value. If it works at all, and that's doubtful, it's completely un-intuitive. I have not had it function effectively once since purchase and if the company offering it had any integrity they would offer everyone their money back

### 1/5 — Don't Buy This!

*2014-02-27, version 1.0.5*

It will not open. Such a waste and shouldn't be here.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2014-01-21, version 1.0.5*

I can't even open this App with my ipad4 , newly updated ios 7, just jumped out immediately, fix it soon!

### 1/5 — Doesnt work

*2013-09-30, version 1.0.2*

### 1/5 — Shows nothing

*2020-10-03, version 3.2*

Worthless app. Nice looting map absolutely no Infopeople.

### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY THIS APP

*2020-05-10, version 3.2*

Total scam.  Does not work at all.  All you get is a fancy graphic.  Enter your zip code and nothing happens.  Menu item for local air quality returns numbers for somewhere in Canada.  A negative rating, reporting to Apple.

### 1/5 — Abandoned in 2015?

*2018-08-06, version 3.2*

Pin drop locations are not up-to-date and data from the current pins is incorrect. For example, on 8/4/18, at Yosemite National Park, this app reported a "Good" AQI of 8, when the EPA reported a "Hazardous" AQI reading of 456 due to the Ferguson fire. Clearly the developers haven't worked on this app since their last update in 2015.

### 1/5 — Do Not Buy This!

*2018-04-13, version 3.2*

I wish I had read the reviews before I did. It doesn’t work. It’s trash.

### 1/5 — App Does Not Work - Do Not Buy

*2018-03-21, version 3.2*

I’ve tried and tried again to get this app to work and no matter how many times I reload it, it still crashes. The app simply does not work and I seems as though I am not the only one who has been experiencing issues...

### 1/5 — Do not buy

*2015-05-13, version 2.2.0*

Does not function

### 1/5 — This is a scam!

*2015-05-11, version 2.2.0*

Will no even open up!

Don't buy!

### 1/5 — Agree doesn't work

*2015-05-08, version 2.2.0*

Just purchased and neither the air quality nor the weather app works.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2015-04-29, version 2.2.0*

I was excited about this app until after purchasing, it won't load past the preview page. I also made efforts to get in contact with the app help link and asked for a refund, but still have got no reply.

### 1/5 — Confusing

*2015-01-04, version 2.1.0*

For something that should be so simple and also free, not 99 cents, this app failed miserably. It will only show you one city at a time and contains a confusing promotion for an unrelated app.

### 5/5 — Extremely Accurate

*2014-03-23, version 1.0.6*

With my frequent trips to China and Hong Kong, I found myself on need of an easy way to pre-check the air quality before I left home. 

I was initially skeptical of the apps accuracy, however after cross referencing the with reputable online sources, I was thrilled to find out that this app is extremely accurate. 

Highly recommended for any frequent travelers.

### 5/5 — Great info to have

*2014-03-21, version 1.0.6*

This is a very good app to have in my pocket, occasionally I need to travel to Hong Kong and China and this app provide PM 2.5 data which is color coded and very clear and useful.

### 3/5 — Can't search city, it gives you a search place but no response then...

*2014-08-17, version 1.0.7*

Please can you fix it?!

### 3/5 — Only USA and SE Asia

*2014-07-27, version 1.0.7*

A smattering of USA, and a fair number of Chinese, Indian, Thai, Malaysian cities. No dates and times on  AQ index values, so no way of knowing how current.

### 2/5 — Accurate?

*2013-05-16, version 1.0.1*

My other online and local sources are conflicting with the measurements of this app. I cannot verify the accuracy of these readings.
