Alerts for Bushfires
Considering that bushfires are a matter of life & death as well as managing to decide if you stay & defend or leave for safer surroundings, this app could have more information. Current accurate as possible information is the key to saving lives.
Highly recommend
Today the app alerted me to a grass fire at the end of my street within minutes of it being reported! Highly recommend this for anyone in bushfire zones.
Current fire text size font
Hi great app. I am in the cfs and use this app several times a day. I find the font size in red of the current fire is a little too large and it covers the number of appliances that are on scene . Or maybe the field could be shortened so as not to cover the number of appliances. Regards bob wake
Doesn’t work
This app no longer works on my iPad no matter what I try.
Love it
Love this app. I rely heavily on it
SaFires app
Awesome thanks! Best available- brings together all the good functions of multiple websites into one awesome app. Don’t seem to be able to get the windspeed off of knots though! Not very helpful for us nn-aeronautical/mariner types!
Always reliable
Sa fires is always my go to and it is clear and up to date good site
A must for bushfire season
Provides important fire information close to our property, so we can act upon our bushfire plan if necessary.
Needs updating and bug fixes
Just downloaded. Hasn’t been updated for 12 months . I can’t set a watch zone apparently the server is unable to be updated. Fire danger season has started please update
Speedy & informative
Thank you . Have let a few relatives know about concerning bushfires fires near to them. A few times they had not known !
Thank you !
Thank you !
Not Working
It was working great since I got it about a month or so ago, but now is not displaying the map or updating the info, sometimes it just won’t even open!! Even after switching new iPhone on and off several times
S.A Fire app
Great to see what’s happening in your state helps put your mind at rest
Life & property saver
We had a fire go through our property in December last year & if I didn’t have this app we would’ve lost a lot more as “local radio” people were on holidays, the mobile service in this area is practically nil & the landline warning was sent to our MessageBank an hour after fire went through... & we didn’t get any warning except from this app so Thankyou.

Very good
Good info when in need.
Different Icons
Personally different icons like for tree down a tree instead of a fire icon
Glitchy and doesn’t let you set alerts properly but up to date info
Gives up to date info but won’t let me set location alerts using my address. It gives me a random address over 5km away and won’t let me change it. Also won’t let me delete old location alerts. Pretty useless if I have to physically open the app to hear of a fire.
Better than Alert SA
What the title says - this app is better
Watch zones
All working well, except cannot delete unwanted watch zones, which appear unwanted when screen is touched
Vital information
During the Kangaroo Island fire emergency we relied on the local ABC radio and this app. Everyone should have it on their phone and tablet and refer to it constantly.
Poor updating
Trying to keep track of the KI fires impossible when the last update on the Ravine fires is over a week old. If it’s not possible to update why have the app, let alone asking people to pay for it?
