### 2/5 — App rarely works

*2026-01-21, version 3.1*

The app rarely works and loads. If it does work it’s rarely updated for the days.

### 2/5 — Unwanted late night push notifications

*2026-01-21, version 3.1*

This was useful but am removing due to the county pushing “test” notifications late at night. Completely unnecessary and unprofessional.

### 3/5 — Not working

*2026-01-20, version 3.1*

I have had this app for several years. It is currently stuck in do not use while driving. Please help! Other than this the app is great.

### 3/5 — BIG Problems

*2015-07-19, version 2.0*

Worked for one day, than keeps crashing.  This never happened in the older version. Very nice interface, though.  I am asthmatic, so I need to know this stuff.  It doesn't help when the app keeps crashing.

### 2/5 — Only Takes pictures

*2015-05-20, version 1.4*

I tried to use pictures on my iPhone and it would not allow me to use pictures from my phone. The only option is take a picture, you can't select pictures already on your phone.

### 5/5 — Very useful, glitches are fixed

*2014-12-23, version 1.4*

Useful and no more glitches!

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2014-12-22, version 1.4*

Works great, no loading or updating issues.

### 5/5 — I like it

*2014-12-05, version 1.4*

This App works great on my iPhone. No blue screen,no spinning wheel of death.

### 1/5 — Fail

*2014-11-29, version 1.4*

Used this app a lot and after the update on nov 26th all it does is give you a blue screen and a spinning wheel of death. Thanks for making it useless now 👍

### 1/5 — Another useless app

*2014-11-27, version 1.4*

Just downloaded and it doesn't work. It looks like it is waiting for some data but nothing loads. 

Another useless app brought to you by developers and government officials paid by your tax dollars.

### 1/5 — Clean Air

*2026-01-22, version 3.1*

I love this app but for a week now it will not load.  I have deleted and re-installed several times.  I have reset network.  My phone is up to date with software.  I cannot get the info I want on Burn and No burn days.  
Something is wrong.

### 1/5 — No longer functioning.

*2026-01-19, version 3.1*

The app no longer displays anything on its home page. 
It’s no longer useful.

### 1/5 — App

*2026-01-19, version 3.1*

Won’t open on my iPhone.  Removed and reinstalled.  With WiFi and without.  Nothing.

### 1/5 — No longer functioning.

*2025-05-01*

The app no longer displays anything on its home page. 
It’s no longer useful.

### 1/5 — Not updated for newer phones?

*2025-04-28*

I downloaded this to help quickly determine if it’s a burn day. I got the idea from an informational flyer telling where you can find if it’s a burn day. I had a hard time finding it on the website. I would like it to be more prominent on the webpage (like the top banner or something so you can’t miss it) and the app seems to be useless for me. I have an iPhone 15 pro and when I open the app and the tutorial started, I could tell this app might not have been updated in some time, because the arrows showing me where everything is were pointing to nothing. I would love if this gets patched so I can use the app and have it display correctly like in the App Store screenshots. Because I cannot see if it’s a burn day or not when I open the app.

### 1/5 — Data Removed

*2024-05-08, version 2.8.1*

I used the app for a long time specifically for the percentages provided for the PM2, PM10 AND Ozone. These numbers are no longer available and thus determining how to proceed with travel in the Phoenix area and necessary health protection. Sad someone decided the information was not needed for the public.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time.

*2024-01-28, version 2.8.1*

This app used to be helpful.  They discontinued the “forecast” feature.  The whole app no longer seems to be supported.  Just as easy to get your air quality update from the local news apps.  Don’t waste your time with this app.

### 1/5 — Does not open!??

*2015-07-19, version 2.0*

App will not open, tried reloading twice. Please bring back the previous version which worked great.

### 1/5 — They lie

*2015-01-01, version 1.4*

Every holiday you can be guaranteed of High Pollution advisory on crystal clear days (next day after a rainstorm) and have Burn days okay, on some days that should be High Pollution advisory.

### 1/5 — Quit Working After Last Update

*2014-12-03, version 1.4*

November 29th update fixed it. Thanks.

### 5/5 — Very useful!

*2026-02-25, version 3.6*

This app is a great tool to make sure I know when it’s safe to go hiking. It also has useful information and links.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2026-02-13, version 3.6*

Just installed the latest update, and all is working perfectly again. I also appreciate the pollution notifications. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Informative and easy to use!

*2026-02-10, version 3.6*

This app is handy to have when I want to check the air quality. It also lets me know when it’s a no burn day!

### 5/5 — Update: Working Great Now!

*2025-05-06, version 3.0*

I downloaded this to help quickly determine if it’s a burn day. I got the idea from an informational flyer telling where you can find if it’s a burn day. I had a hard time finding it on the website. I would like it to be more prominent on the webpage (like the top banner or something so you can’t miss it) and the app seems to be useless for me. I have an iPhone 15 pro and when I open the app and the tutorial started, I could tell this app might not have been updated in some time, because the arrows showing me where everything is were pointing to nothing. I would love if this gets patched so I can use the app and have it display correctly like in the App Store screenshots. Because I cannot see if it’s a burn day or not when I open the app.
UPDATE: looks like something got updated! App looks great!

### 5/5 — Excellent app, info and interface

*2020-12-20, version 2.6.2*

This app is very well done, it has plenty of useful information in a very clear manner, and it is consistently updated.

### 5/5 — Checking for No Burn Day

*2018-11-25, version 2.5.5*

Recently purchased home with backyard fire pit.  Easy way to determine if a now burn day is in effect.  Problems mentioned in older reviews appear to have been corrected.

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2015-12-09, version 2.3*

I was thinking how AZ could make it easier to inform people of whether or not it was a "no burn day." This app is perfect. One click, and I know if I can sit out by my fire pit that night. Thanks.

### 5/5 — Provides realtime air quality info

*2015-06-12, version 1.4*

Excellent app for getting current air quality and forecast, it even gives you tools to report violators. I also like the push notifications alerting me to upcoming or current issues.

### 5/5 — Very helpful!

*2015-01-19, version 1.4*

Great app - easy to use and quickly get a glimpse of he info you need as a Scottsdale resident (wood burning, etc.). It's handy and I check this app a few times a month.

### 5/5 — A fantastic tool

*2015-01-01, version 1.4*

Takes the guess work out of  pollution.
