### 3/5 — Lots of potential

*2026-04-26*

I’m in SE GA with a large wildfire about 10 miles away from me right now. At the moment it seems to be moving away. I like your map, but have a couple questions:
1. What’s the difference between the orange and yellow dots?  There is no legend. 
2. Can you incorporate wind direction and speed?  It would be great to have a visualization of both in relation to the location of the wildfires. Thanks for providing your app.

### 1/5 — Ever Heard of the Palisades Fire??

*2025-01-11, version 1.3*

Title pretty much says it all. I just paid .99 for an app that is supposed to show wildfires and it doesn’t show the largest one currently burning the you-know-what out of SoCal. The fact that I can see it when I look to my southwest is helpful, but I’d love to know if my recently evacuated house is among the 27k acres it has burned. Yes, I know that there are reasons the app might not show various fires blah blah blah, but this is inexcusable.

### 1/5 — Fire app

*2024-07-04, version 1.3*

Worthless for this

### 5/5 — You’re keeping us informed on the Point fire and we are grateful.

*2024-06-17, version 1.3*

Thanks for continual update on point fire and all othrts

### 2/5 — US “only”

*2024-05-14*

Until last summer (2023), this was the only fire-reporting app I had or needed. But in the aftermath of the wildfires in ON & QC and their severe downwind effects in the Eastern US, this app is now effectively sidelined because of the lack of coverage of Canada. I’ll be using another that does have this coverage, which tells me that the data are readily available and that the dev just needs to incorporate them. I hope that will happen, at which point I would gladly change my review to 5*s. I have two of the dev’s other apps — Snow Report and River Levels — which are great. I expect this would be as well with inclusion of Canada. 🇨🇦

### 3/5 — Abandoned?

*2023-08-28*

I hope this is not going to be another abandoned app. I'm not saying that this specific developer has abandoned his/her/their apps, but other developers have been abandoning theirs and I feel that I’m just wasting my time and money on them. It makes me sick to my stomach, and this is the only reason I hesitate to get any more apps than I need. 
August 2023 Wildfires app.

### 5/5 — App not updating

*2023-08-08*

Clicking on the inciweb tab makes the whole app shut down. Fire data does not appear to be updating. I’ve contacted the developer with no responses correcting the issues. I have noticed that all of the feedback is from a year or more ago. Edit 8/8/23: thanks for the correction. The app is working fine now, and the link to Inciweb is seamless and works nicely.

**Developer response:** Hi, please update to version 1.3 and the issue you are describing has been fixed. Unfortunately I did not see your email or I would have fixes the issue more quickly. 

Lastly, please consider editing your review when you experience the app working again. Thank you.

### 1/5 — Terrible for Canadian users

*2023-06-10*

Doesn’t show any Canadian fire data. I want my money back!

### 1/5 — The app doesn’t work

*2022-08-20*

Look like a scam

### 1/5 — Where is the information?

*2022-05-22*

I tapped on every possible setting and layer (of which there are few to none) to set it up, and the fires currently burning are not even showing… the settings gears just links me to other apps this company offers. The informational maps cannot be drilled down into - they literally look like placeholders with nominal graphics. I cannot understand why the developer believes that their app is functional because appears to be a skeleton with nothing fleshing it out in a live interactive manner. 
Please don’t tell me I need to update the version, as I just downloaded it an hour ago.
Utter facepalm. Deleting. You got my dollar.
