Too slow to react
Although the app is great when it gets things right, it’s often much too slow in its reactions.
If I get a news report on TV about a fire threatening a town, and then cannot find it in the app, it’s too slow.
If I click on a listed fire, and it’s dated a year ago, at .2 hectares, you know that fire has to be extinguished and shouldn’t be shown in the app; too slow to react.

much more info
I have been using the other official BCWildfire app but find this one more informative and updates quicker. For example it told me how far away the fire was from my location and then the terrain map showed exactly where fire is as well as me. It also has a predictive lightning map updated every 10 minutes. It also has a predictive precipitation map layer. Thank you!

Constant bugs and late updates
Kinda inconvenient being a firefighter trying to track fires in my area off hours when the maps hardly zoom in and you take out the satellite positioning every 3rd day. Fix it and I’ll fix my review
