I like this company

I’m been using this app and like it a lot. Unfortunately, it’s not showing TOVC and particles less 1 ppm otherwise I recommend it

My go to for AQI

Love it, I check it every day.

Can’t live without it

Been using it for a couple years, really essential if you are air quality conscious

Great app!

Easy to navigate, fast, and responsive with highly useful data

First place I check for the AQI…

Provides good and quick information every day

Great!

I love purple air and find it way more accurate than other AQI apps. The only issue is that accessing it via a browser was clunky. Having Paku is great because the interface is much more intuitive and user friendly. This is a must have during fire season.

Use it all the time

Paku is my go to app for checking on air quality in my area. I love the citizen science aspect of it. Many locations throughout town and the county can be checked quickly.

Great source, desperately needed

Love the filter options between PMI, humidity and air quality on the map. Seems to be updating as fast as the wind can blow or clear wildfire smoke.

Game Changing

There are over 15 PurpleAir stations in my town giving real time pm2.5 data. It's invaluable to know whether it's safe to exercise vigorously outdoors or not. This app has changed everything, and the yearly membership is dirty cheap.

Easy to use app; wish I could view fewer sensors

It is much easier to use this app than to go to the Purple Air website.

Very helpful!

We have been using the Paku Air Quality and AQI Map for a couple of years as a quick reference during wildfires in our area and loved ones’ areas. It has been extra helpful when we are deciding which outdoor activities are safe for the kids and when we need to stay indoors.

Reliable

Got this app during the Covid-19 lockdown, while a lot of fires brought heavy smoke across our neighborhood (I have asthma). The app proved itself amazingly reliable and helpful. Thank you so much!

Awesome App - a lifesaver

During the summer fire season, I use Paku Air every day to check the air quality in my neighborhood and area that I am in.

With the accurate information, I am able to ascertain whether I need to wear a mask when outdoors, if I can open my windows and if I can go camping.

So invaluable to staying healthy! Thank you Paku folks.

Very helpful

Quickly and clearly gives us the local air quality. I use it every day.

An easier way to check local air quality sensors

Paku is much easier to read and use than the Purple Air website. You can localize it wherever you are. You can create favorites and save them. With the purple Air website, every time you use it, you have to change the setting for a conversion to US AQI. With Paku. As a default is US AQI. You can also view the temperature reading from any sensor on the same screen as the AQI. All this is with the free version.

Easy to navigate

I especially appreciate the easy toggle between indoor, outdoor, or both monitors

Super snappy

Way faster than the mobile website

Health App

Live data is a major resource to knowing when to put on an N95 mask to stay healthy. Wish there were sensors and live displays showing air quality in every park so this information was available to everyone. Until that happens this app is the next best thing!

Essential Tool

Living in SoCal you need a quick way to determine what the current AQ is before you go out to exercise (or really open up your windows to the outside). Paku seamlessly integrates Purple Air Sensors with Air Now Sensors on one screen. You can set favorite locations and can tap into a detailed look at all 3 of the Air Now sensors’ data points PM2.5 PM10 and Ozone. Integrates with Apple Watch as well. Outstanding App.

It’s fantastic to see where the open windows are to know where I can go cycling!
