Delinquent reporting
An expensive app that does NOT notify you nearby fires, and quite delayed on daily updates.
Fire find
Great app
Terrible site
This site is terrible. So hard to get information on local are. I’ll be looking for a different app.
Junk
Nothing works. Notifications do not work. Email setting will not work. Fire map is not working. So angry I paid for a year subscription.
Inaccurate.
The only accurate information is for the fires in America, anywhere else and it’s either tens of thousands hectares behind or it doesn’t show up at all. They should limit the map to only the United States because it’s misleading as hell, especially for information that’s so important to a lot of people.

Fire tracker
I feel they miss Canada sometimes and I can’t see Australia fires because they are none according to this
About 2 hours late to notify for fire in area
Fire in 20 mile radius that was pretty bad got notified after 2 hours. Likely i use non profit app and they notified me 5 minutes after fire started
No info for large, nearby fire.
There’s a wildfire that’s burned 1,300 acres less than 10 miles from my house; started more than 10 hours ago. The incident doesn’t show up in this app at all (neither on the map nor in the list).
Good updates to mas
I have enjoyed this app. I have followed numerous fires and have found the information reliable. Fast interface. Comprehensive coverage.
Amazing app! except for one thing.
So this app is AMAZING at tracking fires except whenever I use it for a few minutes it starts glitching out and the screen freezes. I don’t know if it’s my device or the app itself but it is very glitchy and my device has not had that problem. Other than that it is an amazing app! I recommend this app for people who want to know if there is a fire near the area, people who have a lot of wildfires, and people who like to plan early and get prepared for a wildfire.

Decent app
The app is pretty good but the only thing I don’t understand is the camera option, when you turn on the camera filter and select a camera it doesn’t show anything and I don’t know what it’s suppose to show , it doesn’t work
It’s All We Have
Better than Facebook for factual updates, infinitely better than Cal Fire for timeliness, it’s a literal lifesaver
Not accurate
There was a fire yesterday where people were being evacuated and this app doesn’t even show it!!!!!
THE app to keep track of weather and fire conditions
The title says it all
Idaho
I was in Stanley Idaho for a couple of days and the smoke was like breathing in a barbecue . I imagine it was a lot worse for the fire fighters and people right next to the fire . I would not advise traveling there if you can’t handle the smoke and headaches.
Amazing app!,
I live in the most places with forest fires or around and this app tells me everything thanks!
Nice app
Works great
Its OK. Funky UX, expensive
Was disappointed in the UX and the timeliness of the reporting. Data seems slow to populate. UX is kind of funky. Its also kind of expensive.
Now fixed…
Addendum #2: Glad I kept nagging. The problems described below are now fixed (+3*s). I look forward to this app providing warnings for the upcoming fire season.
Original review: This app is sending me alerts that satellites have detected fires in a large area of E. Canada that I have delineated… yet absolutely nothing shows up on the map for any sensor methods. Then today: “a fire near you.” Nada. The lists are even worse — all categories totally empty. Clearly this app has been abandoned. Complete waste of a $30 subscription. (Dev: please don’t suggest uninstalling, reinstalling, blah, blah. Done that twice. No difference.)
Addendum #1: Yes, the lists populate now. But the map in Eastern Canada, still nada. The alerts for the large portion of western Quebec that I outlined now zoom in with a detailed little pop-up but NOTHING shows up on the map.

Response from developer
The problem was on our end- there was a data outage that affected agency-reported fires. It's fixed now. A quit and reopen of the app should show all the current US and Canada fires. Thank you for the update. In addition to fixing the immediate problem, we've also implemented an internal monitoring and alerts system which should give us a rapid alert when there's a data issue. Regarding Canada wildfires: unfortunately the source data on these is not as comprehensive as the US data. I've noticed that some major wildfires don't even get listed in the Canada data. Hopefully that will improve.
Atrocious
