## What is Shoot! I Smoke?

Did you know that you may be smoking up to 20 cigarettes per day, just for living in a big city?

Quite scary, right? "Shoot! I Smoke" was what we said when we first saw this article about the equivalence between air pollution and cigarette smoking. We were smoking between up to 8 cigarettes everyday without even touching one!

So we created this quick application for you to know how many cigarettes you are smoking in your city. You can share the number and help raise awareness about the risks of air pollution.

## Key features

- Air pollution to cigarette equivalence calculator
- Estimates daily cigarette intake from pollution
- Raises awareness about air quality risks
- Shareable results for social impact

### 1/5 — Data timed out

*2021-08-15, version 1.8.14*

Whatever city I choose (Chicago, Oregon)  it says I’m sorry “data times out”.  I’ve yet to see any results. I hope the next version fixes this

### 2/5 — Cool app but 1 flaw.

*2021-08-14, version 1.8.14*

This is a really cool app that should have many users. There is just 1 flaw that I can’t seem to find answer to. If the solution is there it needs to be more obvious. How many hours would you have to breathe in the air for it to be equivalent to the estimated amount of cigarettes? This information means nothing to me because I am assuming you would have to breathe that air in for a 24hr time period for it to equate to the estimated number, which I doubt very many people are doing. If this is not the case and it is less than a 24hr period I’m sure these numbers would hit home with a lot more people. Also the likely hood of people to share this apps information would probably increase. I think the estimated number should be adjustable based on the number of hours spent outside. I also understand the AQI is a consistently fluctuating number but I would say the average stays within a reasonable range of the starting 24hr time period.

### 4/5 — Great app, minor issues

*2020-09-16, version 1.7.2*

I LOVE this app. It’s an easy and interesting way to see the air quality near me. 
However, out of nowhere, it has stopped updating the AQI near me. It says the nearest station was updated 4 months ago, despite it being updated and working yesterday.

### 5/5 — Really good!

*2018-12-23, version 1.2.0*

I have downloaded and used all the air quality apps in the Apple store. This is one of my top 2 favorites because the data is updated frequently and the information is easy to understand. Also you can drill down to really detailed data if you want, and the transparency helps you decide for yourself whether the numbers are legit. All in all, 5 stars. Keep up the good work.

### 5/5 — Still dividing AQI by 22?

*2018-11-28, version 1.2.0*

11/27/2018 The quick response to bug reports makes this great idea a 5-star app!
11/9/2018: Latest update supposedly fixed a bug calculating with AQI instead of PM 2.5 ug/m3 concentration, but today’s estimate of 8 cigarettes is derived from AQI=181 instead of 5 cigarettes based on a concentration of 113.6 PM 2.5. Maybe I don’t understand what airnow is reporting, and 181 is actually PM 2.5 ug/m3. Their labeling seems ambiguous. I’m giving one star to get your attention and will update it based on an explanation.

### 5/5 — Solid

*2018-11-23, version 1.2.0*

Really solid app.  Can’t be sure how accurate the conversion is, but seems reliable.

### 5/5 — california fires

*2018-11-16, version 1.1.5*

i live in the sacramento area and the weather app says we’re currently under hazardous air quality with an air quality index of 330. This app is great for showing you how bad/good the air is.

### 2/5 — Cool idea, thinks everyone is in Middle East

*2018-08-28, version 1.1.5*

It kept telling me the only location was somewhere in the Middle East.

### 1/5 — Deleting this app

*2018-08-23, version 1.1.3*

While I find the information fascinating, I see no reason to add the disgusting expletives. This is not something I want to see on my devices & would be mortified if a friend or worse yet, a child were to see.  I am deleting this app

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. In our latest version 1.2.0, we have deleted the profanities.

### 2/5 — Flawed research

*2018-05-18, version 1.1.2*

Seems cool but the research is flawed. Smoking two cigarettes a day reduces your life expectancy by over 5 years, but the air pollution in LA or Western European cities only by about 1-2 years. No way they are comparable!

**Developer response:** This is very interesting. Please contact us via email, we can discuss this more in details.
