Thank you, EPA
I appreciate being able to give feedback relative to the smoke around here! Hopefully it will contribute to research and also cause Puget Sound Clean Air agency to increase their Enforcement of wood-burning pollution
Worthless
Sorry to say this app is basically worthless. Does not reflect the air quality it’s linked to. For example, today the air is extremely bad, low visibility, getting worse by the hour. Purple Air rates it 168 which seems right. Smoke Sense lists it 61. Pathetic.
Sorry example of an app
Has hardly ever worked for me. Sometimes it's not displaying anything past the splash screen then it's asking for a lot. And I mean a lot. Of preferences.
Useless
Downloaded this app to test it out as it is in guidance for air quality during wildfires. Was hopeful I could push it out to my community during a close wildfire affecting air quality. Was extremely disappointed to find out that it doesn’t work. We have air quality alerts for our area and this app does not pick up on it. Either fix the app or get rid of it because it’s not achieving its goal of providing help to those that need it.

Crashes constantly
Map feature no longer works. Crashes whenever you try to look at the map.
Maps load now but future smoke overlay is missing
This was one of the most helpful features. The apple and android maps now load but there is no option to choose future smoke dispersion. The smoke plumes in now view is limited because that view does not forecast movement or show if it is at ground level. Please fix ASAP.
Great idea but…
tabs at bottom are basically unreadable simply because the text/icons are gray on a medium blue background. Contrast, please? Black on blue maybe?
Also loading basically anything takes many... long... seconds. Call me spoiled but no other app i use does that so much.

Why is the server crashing?
Been crashed >2 weeks. We’re in the middle of fire season and need it to see smoke areas
Otherwise when it’s working rely on this app

Bug fixed
A previous reviewer reported crashes after loading. Works fine for me!
Does not work.
Upon opening the app I am asked to consent to a study that is supposed to be voluntary but you don't get an option to opt out. I agreed and filled out the survey. Then the app crashes. Try opening again and it continues to crash. Same thing over and over. Don't download the app. Waste of time.
Poor App
This app won’t allow me to use it unless I give it all my personal information. I deleted it.
Crashes immediately after opening
Downloaded and filled out profile questionnaire. After saving profile, app crashed. Now it crashes after opening as soon as the home screen appears, every time, even after closing out the app completely. App has potential if an update fixes the crash bug.
Minimizes itself every time I start it
Rated one star because after I completed their survey, the app will not stay open. I haven’t been able to see anything. We are affected by the horrible 2020 fires in Oregon and this sounded like it would be helpful. Running on a gen 6 iPad.
Doesn’t work
Filled out their survey, now the app just crashes on opening.
Crashes on opening
This app doesn’t work. It crashes immediately after opening. I’ve deleted and reinstalled it.
Wouldn’t stop crashing
Filled in all my info, immediately crashed. Reopened the app. Crashed again. Deleted, redownloaded, reentered my info. Crashed. Reopened. Crashed. Reopened. Crashed. Deleted and do not plan to download again unless they fix it. I couldn’t access any information, because after being open for half a second it crashes. Useless.

Not working
It worked for a day and now it opens and then closes immediately.
Clunky
Super hard on the iPhone 8. Slows everything down. Only way to restore the phone is to manually close the app. Kinda cool when it works but often crashes and slooooow.
Wont even open
I’ve downloaded and filled in my info 4 times now and it still doesnt work. The first time it glitched out and had me refill everything, then the app loaded what Im guessing is the home page and then dissapeared. I tried opening it again and it did the same thing. Deleted the app and repeat fill in, same thing happened, tried one last time and same problem. The worst part is I downloaded the app because my house is currently surrounded by fired in every direction and I wanted to try and map a safe driving route in case we get evacuated. If there was a negative stars option Id choose that! Worst app for an emergency!

Inaccurate readings
My location is directly near the fires right now and we are totally smoked out.
Purple air says we are at 150ppm and this app says green at 18 particles
Cmon.
This from the EPA? Really? Get your stuff together EPA!!!
