Great Additions in v4
I’ve used this widget for years and loved that I could keep it simple. Now, I appreciate the additional features (trend line, especially) and that I still can keep the simple small widget for a glance at the air quality, plus have a bigger one on another screen for when I’m wondering when it got hazy or smokey outside.

Better and better
I’ve had Breathable for about 3 months. During that time, the app has gotten better and better. From fixing bugs to better interface updates, to customizing how you want your widgets to look, the app has proven very useful.
Take the time to carefully setup your location. Once you get that done, everything else just flows!

I feel like I should pay for this app
While initial setup (to get API keys) isn’t zero effort, it does allow several data sources for air quality. The app otherwise seems perfect and it really feels like I should at least give the devs some coffee money.
Fantastic update
I’m very glad to see the update, it’s so much more useful now. No wonder the old version was being neglected a bit.
I want to like it but the barrier to set up too high.
I am looking for a good widget that will show current AQI in my location and although the widget appeared on my screen just fine and the app was able to detect my location, it’s not able to gather location-based air-quality data without me setting up an account or getting API codes from external sources? I don’t understand why there are additional hoops. I didn’t have to do any of that for my pollen data widget or my UV index widget. I hope the developers can figure this out for a smoother set-up because it’s a promising, well-organized app with a nice, clean interface, but it’s still a work in progress from my perspective and not useful to me as is.
Edit: alright, I’ve given it another shot since I’ve had some time this morning. I signed up at AirNow, received my API key, and I have validated it in the app, but the widget is not displaying any data. It says “unknown,” despite showing my location within the app.
