### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-03-03*

For Better Life

### 4/5 — 还挺好

*2024-01-17*

实时观察还挺方便。

### 1/5 — Not accessible even if set to English language

*2020-01-22, version 5.7.2*

A lot of Chinese language and lots of companies only submitted reports once in 2016 or 2017. Not the ‘live data’ I was expecting. App has huge potential but needs to get it right and be fully accessible to English speakers. Still had Chinese yes/ no pop-ups which of course you have no idea what you are saying yes or no to! Very offputting

### 3/5 — Unable to register

*2020-01-22, version 5.7.2*

Excited to check out this app but tried more than 5 times and I’m unable to register. The verification keeps failing using both phone number and email. From thus reason I could not use any functions apart from weather. There seem to be many bugs that need fixing, also I can see a lot of Chinese signs even tho I’m switched to English. But seems a great idea and I am looking forward to this being resolved so I can actually use it!

### 1/5 — 用手机登录过，再想绑定手机，提示账号已被占用

*2019-12-21*

那倒是开放一个删除账号的功能，再让邮箱注册的用户重新绑定手机啊？

### 5/5 — 目前为止最好用最详细的空气软件

*2018-12-12*

在这个雾霾污染肆虐的国渡 非常需要这样的一款软件 希望蔚蓝地图能有自己的空气指数 官方指数经常会失真（地方政府为了政绩搞虚假）最后呼吁每一位国人为了我们赖以生存的空气一起来监督政府 千万不能为了经济利益用老百姓健康来买单

### 1/5 — 标准宽泛

*2017-01-20*

同一个地点，aqi显示准确，但空气质量评判标准却宽泛的多，严重怀疑夹藏私货

### 4/5 — Empowering and with huge potential

*2015-04-19, version 2.0*

Impressive features covering water quality and the ability to pinpoint polluters near you on a map make it far more powerful than a simple pollution report. Looking forward to even more features to help me make informed purchasing decisions and for the little bugs to be removed!

### 5/5 — Fight for better life

*2015-04-17*

Let's work together

### 5/5 — 沙发

*2015-03-31*

没人打分？这个要支持一下
