Awesome app

This app is awesome. The only thing that would make it better is if you could change the color of the pins that you drop or the tracks you record. That way it is easier to differentiate between different types of pins.

Just saved my butt

I didn’t realize Avenza had raised their prices and locked me out of my maps until two days into my first roll of the season….. and in a spike camp.

My medics recommended this app to me and it got me through this roll. It’ll be my go to for fire maps for now on.

My only issue is when I press the “focus on me” icon it also zooms me in all the way. Im not sure how to change that.

Interesting Application

If you work in fire, or live in a fire prone environment, I highly recommend getting to know this application.

Pretty Amazing

“As a wildland fire air attack pilot, IGNIS is a total game-changer. Real-time mapping, GeoPDF overlays, live fire perimeters, weather dashboards, and fire-specific symbology give me unmatched situational awareness in the cockpit. Drop target coordination with ground and air resources has never been smoother or safer. I also use it off duty for wildfire awareness. Built by firefighters for firefighters—intuitive, reliable, and essential. Highly recommend!”
